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.

Time-to-clinic and time-to-market are two key factors in successful biopharmaceutical development.

CHO Feed 3 is a chemically-defined protein-free feed medium of non-animal origin. Using Irvine Scientific’s Rational Culture Media Design™ approach, this formulation has been developed to achieve high growth kinetics and product yield in fed-batch processes.

The Allegra X-30 Series Benchtop Centrifuges were designed with your needs in mind providing you with excellent performance and easy operation in a compact design that saves you valuable time and laboratory space.

Storage of pharmaceutical compounds is a function of the storage process and not a specific containment driven requirement per se. This is the case whether you are processing in a contained fashion or performing non-contained processing into open kegs with simple drum liners.

Encompassing two leading-edge processes, multi-zone microporous membrane construction and Advanced Pleating Technolog (APT) design, LifeASSURE™ PSA Series filters offer robust 0.20 and 0.10 micron absolute-rated filtration and exceptionally long service life.

Conductivity sensors measure the ability of a solution to conduct a current. The higher the concentration of ions in the solution, the higher the conductivity, which is measured in microSiemens (mS).
