The SPRIworks Fragment Library Systems have built-in size selection and prepare fragment libraries for all three major next generation sequencing platforms. SPRIworks Systems simplify and automate fragment library construction for the Illumina Genome Analyzers, Roche GS FLX DNA Sequencer and Life Technologies SOLiD Sequencers.

The Agilent 2100 Bioanalyzer is a microfluidics-based platform for sizing, quantification and quality control of DNA, RNA, proteins and cells on a single platform. Results are delivered within 30-40 minutes in automated, high quality digital data.

Hydrophilic media and depth filters. Cellulosic, Diatomaceous earth + cellulose, GF, polyproylene and nano fiber disposable capsules or cartridges. For clarification, prefiltration or to protect columns. Many different inlet / outlet connections, with or without vents and drains. SIP / Autoclavable. Specify when gamma stability is required.

It spins volumes.

With six-liter capacity and an innovative range of rotors, carriers, and adapters, this versatile centrifuge can handle multiple high capacity applications. Ideal for bioprocessing and clinical and blood sample preparation, the J6-MI is the standard for quiet and convenient operation.

Freeze drying is a potentially damaging process, especially to labile materials such as proteins or living organisms. Depending on the product type damage can occur at various stages of the process including freezing, drying and heating.

Recirculating hollow fiber systems have been used for a long time with mixed results. The recurring problem with these and all other cell retention systems is the difficulty in scaling up and staying sterile.

AseptiQuik® STC Connectors integrate the AseptiQuik® sterile connector and the Steam-Thru® II SIP connector, giving manufacturers even greater flexibility for hybrid stainless steel and single-use processing. 

Sartopore 2 XLM filter cartridges are especially designed for validated sterilizing grade filtration and reliable Mycoplasma removal of cell culutre media.
