Sample preparation method helps curb sports doping
A new customer application report available from Genevac discusses an improved method for the preparation of samples for the mass spectroscopic detection of synthetic insulin in blood serum
Improved speed of evaporation, shorter condenser defrost time, more powerful software (including auto-stop when dry and remote control functions) and the flexibility to accommodate a wide range of sample formats are key benefits of the new model HT-4X.
To improve high-throughput capability the waste solvent condenser chamber volume on the HT-4X has been raised and the condenser power increased by 50%.
The HT-4X retains all the popular aspects of the HT-4 series such as SampleGuard and Dri-Pure to protect samples from overheating and bumping and the high-G direct rotor drive.
In addition technical specialists will be on hand to discuss and illustrate the Auto-HT8, a new robotic centrifugal evaporator designed to help companies who wish to automate microplate drying for instance to remove hazardous solvents.
With the Auto-HT8 corrosive solvents such as trifluoroacetic acid, poisons such as thionyl chloride and radioactive samples can now be safely removed in a remote fume hood without direct operator intervention.
This presents a huge opportunity for companies to improve laboratory health and safety without compromising throughput in organic compound synthesis.
On display will be new literature describing Genevac's range of centrifugal evaporation systems, a brochure describing tools for parallel synthesis plus the opportunity to sign-up for a free subscription to 'Solvent Removal On-line' the Genevac electronic newsletter supplying hints, tips and applications advice to scientists involved with solvent removal.
