ÄKTA™ chromatography systems can handle both simple and complex purification tasks and accelerate daily routines. All systems are controlled by UNICORN™ software, a common control platform and user interface for all scales of operation.
Resin are designed specifically for intermediate purification steps that remove host-cell contaminants from partially purified targets using strong or weak hydrophobic interactions. Methacrylate-based beads for protein and nucleic acid purification using hydrophobic interactions are available for purifying compounds that have weak or strong hydrophobic regions.
ReadyToProcess ULTA normal flow filter capsules are single-use filters designed for laboratory through process scale applications. Cytiva provides filtration solutions and support for integrated bioprocessing applications at every step and every scale of the drug development, validation and manufacturing process.
