Competition winners motor away with Genevac

Two lucky scientists were drawn from those who entered Genevac's "Swap a Card for a Car" competition held at International Biotech 2003 in London last week. The sporty radio-controlled Mini Coopers attracted plenty of attention at the two-day show, which saw the UK launch of the new Genevac HT-24 Ultra High Throughput Evaporation workstation.

The lucky winners were Simon Cooke of Evotec OAI in Abingdon, Oxfordshire and keeping up the West Country emphasis, Jane Pratt from Tripos Receptor Research in Bude, Cornwall. Congratulations to them both!

Also on show was Genevac's latest EZ-2 plus Personal Solvent Evaporator, which drew significant interest from show visitors. The latest EZ-2 software adds a useful concentration mode to the easy to use instrument, making it even more versatile for life science researchers everywhere.

You can find more details on the EZ-2 and HT-24 on the Genevac website: www.genevac.com
