Wyatt unveils advanced plate reader at Pittcon 07
Wyatt Technology will unveil its completely redesigned DynaPro Titan plate reader on booth 1372, Pittcon, 26 February - 2 March 2007, Chicago, Illinois, USA
The DynaPro Titan plate reader is a stable, automated addition to its current DLS systems.
Achieving superior performance, DynaPro Titan cuts down sample times from approximately 15 minutes per sample to just one minute - or less - with fewer than 50 microlitres of sample per well (recoverable).
In the case of the 1536 well plate format, the sample volume required is just 5microliters.

Making absolute particle sizing easy
Integrating field flow fractionation with multi-angle light scattering detection means that reproducible absolute particle sizing can be achieved without calibration or sizing standards
This 'groundbreaking' instrument is capable of performing a broad range of applications quickly and easily, including bioprocessing and quality control of viral particles and vaccines, screening chemical compounds for small molecule aggregation or potential promiscuous inhibitors and exploring antibody formulations over a broad range of solution conditions.
The DynaPro Plate Reader utilises state-of-the-art technology and can be equipped with industry standard microplates (96, 384 or 1536 well plates).
Being non-invasive and filter-free, this new product is particularly easy to use and can be customised to interface with a variety of laboratory robotic systems.
It is operated using Dynamics, a data collection and analysis software tuned specifically for batch and automated characterisation of unfractionated molecular samples.
The DynaPro DLS products are used globally in pharmaceutical, biotechnology, university and government-funded R+D laboratories, to understand the physical attributes of purified protein molecules.
The products make it much easier to characterise protein homogeneity.
Acquired during Wyatt's acquisition of Proterion/Protein Solutions in November 2004, the DynaPro dynamic light scattering (DLS) products are said to be the industry standard in the protein crystallisation market.
The products are Wyatt Technology's first integrated solution for batch dynamic light scattering and are its primary offering in the important field of high throughput screening.
With installations in more than 50 countries, Wyatt Technology claims to be the world's leading manufacturer of laser light scattering instrumentation for absolute macromolecular characterisation.
It is the only company in the world focused exclusively on such systems, their design and their application.
