Microreaction flow chemistry system aims to launch
Uniqsis, the Cambridge based company formed in January 2007 to develop a new concept in microreaction flow chemistry, has announced progress towards launching the FlowSyn system later in the year
Uniqsis managing director Martyn Fordham said: "It's been an incredibly busy but rewarding year.
"The development team took FlowSyn from concept design and first prototype phases through to beta trial systems for pilot customers and now to the manufacture of fully standards-tested production models, and all in less than 12 months".
The FlowSyn technical team has also been given a real boost by the arrival of Mark Ladlow, a leading authority on flow chemistry.
Ladlow was until recently head of the GSK Cambridge Technology Laboratory based within the University of Cambridge, where in recent years he has collaborated closely with professor Steven Ley on developing flow chemistry as an emerging new chemistry technology.
Following a period as an independent consultant developing flow chemistry applications, he has now joined Uniqsis as chief scientific officer.
World-wide availability of FlowSyn is also expanding, with new distributors appointed in France, USA (Uniqsis will be exhibiting at Pittcon 2008), Italy and India.
