The CESI 8000 High Performance Separation-ESI Module is designed for mass spectrometry applications that analyze charged and polar molecules. Thanks to its robust OptiMS technology, the advantages of Capillary Electrophoresis are now delivered to the mass spectrometer without dilution or disturbance.

The Avanti® J-HC High Capacity Centrifuge provides you with a complete solution for batch bioprocessing. A maximum of 9 Liters can be spun at speeds of 5,000 rpm and 7,480 x g for greater sample throughput. This allows processing of up to 36 Liters per hour when harvesting bacteria. Enhanced operator safety is provided with disposable HarvestLine System Liners.

ARC Sensors are the complete solution: innovative premium quality sensors with a robust, direct, and standard interface to the PLC. Hamilton ARC Sensors send a 4-20 mA signal directly to an analog process control system while delivering at the same time the power of digital sensor management.

The S.U.F. is engineered for optimal oxygen mass transfer, mixing, and temperature control, and performs comparably to traditional stainless steel systems. Using traditional, fundamental engineering principles, scale-up and process development work is streamlined – offering you cost savings and efficiency. 
 

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.

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.

Proyield Cotton CNE50M-UF is a protein hydrolysate derived from cottonseed by enzymatic hydrolysis. The enzymes used for digestion are from non-animal sources. Proyield Cotton CNE50M-UF has been ultrafiltered to reduce endotoxin.

3M Purification's core filtration technologies address the most demanding applications in pharmaceutical processing for small molecule and active pharmaceutical ingredient (API) applications.
