Biotage
announces the launch of the new Isolera™ Dalton - a fully automated
miniaturized mass directed flash purification system.
Uppsala,
Sweden, June 5, 2013 -- Biotage
(STO: BIOT), a leading global supplier of solutions and technology
for analytical, medicinal and peptide chemistry, announces the launch
of the new Isolera™ Dalton - a fully automated miniaturized mass
directed flash purification system. The new system raises the bar for
flash purification by integrating, for the first time, a miniaturized
mass detector and an advanced flash chromatography system into one
commercially available platform.
The
mass detector and Isolera™ Spektra flash purification system are
seamlessly integrated via the Isolera™ Dalton Nanolink unit, an
intelligent sampling device which handles all fluids and synching
calculations between the two units. Isolera™ Dalton easily fits
inside a standard fume hood, requires no external pumps and is
capable of both normal and reverse-phase separations, so it is
completely compatible with the diverse purification needs of the
modern research laboratory.
"Compounds
are identified in real time during purification and this informs the
flash fractionation process, enabling the correct product to be
collected by the system. The system automatically accommodates
different column sizes and flow rates, overcoming major issues with
simple splitter-based systems. Isolera™ Dalton significantly
reduces the number of steps required to purify and confirm a target
compound, thus improving workflow and increasing confidence that
chemists have synthesized what was intended. Quite frankly there is
nothing else like it on the market today or that even comes close" says
Dr Sunil Rana, Global Product Manager, Biotage.
The
instrument uses a wizard-based approach to method development, simple
on screen prompts guides chemists through the system; even those
whose expertise or priorities lie in compound synthesis rather than
analysis.
