Genevac
Ltd, world leader in solvent removal for drug discovery applications,
has announced the introduction of a new sample rack compatible with
Gilson fraction collector beds.
In
busy labs faced with processing large numbers of HPLC fractions
the new sample rack eliminates the need for manual handling of tubes
between fraction collector and Genevac evaporator significantly
improving productivity and reducing the risk of mis-identification
and cross contamination. In addition, each block is colour coded
and laser-engraved with a unique set of tube identification numbers,
so that blocks can be readily identified both on the fraction collector
bed and post-evaporation.
The
new rack features self-locating blocks, which accept standard 16
x 100mm fraction collector tubes in banks of 5 x 5 tubes. Three
blocks can be accommodated per rack, so that four racks will accept
300 tubes in twelve blocks; enough to completely fill a Genevac
HT-12 evaporator for one run. The speed of evaporation of these
blocks in a Genevac HT-12 is far greater than can be obtained by
drying the entire Gilson rack in a larger machine, making this a
more productive, safer and thus cost-effective method.
Genevac
Ltd. belongs to the Apogent Technologies Group of companies.
