Get fast micro-centrifugation in an easy-to-use, compact design. The Beckman Coulter Microfuge® Series offers the performance and reliability you demand—and have come to expect.  Intuitive user interface display, increased speed and capacity, safety, and multiple rotor options are just a few of the many features the Microfuge® offers.

The ReadyToProcess WAVE 25 rocker features integrated temperature sensors and load cells, designed for convenient handling and control of cell cultures up to 25 L. A filter heater is delivered with the system.

3M Purification Inc.’s LifeASSURE™ PDA series filter combines two asymmetric polyethersulfone (PES) membrane layers together with proprietary Advanced Pleat Technology (APT) design.

DNA methylation events are heritable modifications that regulate gene expression without altering the DNA sequence itself. They serve as regulatory mechanisms for a wide range of biological processes and genetic diseases, and irregular methylation patterns have been associated with certain cancers.

Sartopure PP2 Cartridges were optimized for the wide range of prefiltration.

Designed with a smaller footprint so it will fit right in your lab, the Avanti J-E is compact yet powerful. The Avanti J-E’s extensive rotor library maximizes capacity and optimizes g-force for efficient, fast separations and greater variety of applications. Its high-torque, switched reluctance (SR) drive technology delivers faster acceleration and deceleration, which means less wait time for you. It offers an intuitive, user-friendly interface, as well as lower energy costs. What’s more, the Avanti J-E’s low height and contoured front panel help ease the burden of rotor installation and retrieval, for even more convenient operation.

Sterilizing grade 0.04um, 0.1um, 0.2um hydrophilic PES membrane filters plus other micron ratings. Single layer or double layer PES and with optional prefilter layers to extend on-stream life. Gamma compatible and suitable PVDF alternative. Mold injected capsules with multiple inlet / outlet options including sanitary ‘T’ clamps, hose barbs, quick sanitary connectors, elbows and threads. Almost any combination of connecting inlet or outlet is possible with over 30 options. Full validation supporting documents are available. Ideal for tube sets and hook up to bioreactors, fermenters, biocontainer, biobags, wave bags or single use fermenters.

ZenPure’s in-company mold design and injection capabilities, filter production and quality assurance facilitate manufacturing audit and product traceability that meet the highest industry standards.

Elevating your laboratory’s potential starts with the optimal tabletop ultracentrifuge. And the Optima MAX Series is the absolute top of the line. Reaching up to 150,000 rpm and over 1,000,000 x g, Optima MAX instruments set the standard in tabletop speed.
