White Paper: Capillary Electrophoresis — A Simple Technique
In 1989, Beckman Instruments introduced the first fully automated capillary electrophoresis instrument (P/ACE™ 2000) to the scientific community. At that time, CE demonstrated exceptional resolving of selected compounds, but the new technology lacked a track record of applications. By Beckman Coulter, Inc.

Efficiency Test Of ReadyToProcess™ Columns
ReadyToProcess™ columns are prepacked, prequalified, and presanitized process chromatography columns suited for purification of biopharmaceuticals (e.g., proteins, vaccines, plasmids, and viruses) for clinical phase I and II studies. ReadyToProcess columns are available with several media at different volumes (1, 2.5, 10, and 20 L).

Metal Removal From Fine Chemical Products
Metal contamination in various injectable or even oral medicines is a serious concern.
-
A Disposable Valve For Process Chromatography
This case study discusses the need for a fully automated, disposable chromatography system which was PLC controlled and designed for use in a cGMP environment. The required applications for the chromatography system included contamination removal, and concentration and purification of biologically derived proteins used in the production of research and clinical materials.

With the Eppendorf BioSpectrometer basic, measurements can be executed in the UV and Vis range from 200 nm to 830 nm. The freely selectable wavelengths offer you maximum flexibility during these procedures.
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.
A proven method for confirming protein purity and yield without the need for gel staining steps. Stain-free gels provide visual confirmation of protein purity and yield by gel electrophoresis in less than 30 minutes. Stain-free technology is perfect for drug discovery, drug development, and method development for preclinical research.
The DoverPac® Bag In/Bag Out (BIBO) containment system is a family of contained transfer designs for multiple processes. The primary components for this validated operation consist of multiple groove canisters, docking interface hardware, and softgoods in either continuous liner form or discreet liners.
Macro-Prep hydrophobic interaction chromatography (HIC) media are methacrylate-based, 50 µm beads used for protein, polypeptide, enzyme, and nucleic acid purification.
