Bio-Rad Fraction Collector for Discovery to Process-scale Applications
Pharma and biotech need to easily pivot from analytical to process-scale purification of new biological drugs. When used with the NGC™ Chromatography System, Bio-Rad’s new NGC Fraction Collector offers researchers increased versatility and capacity needed for any application, from discovery to scale up. The NGC Fraction Collector offers multimodal collection based on slope, %B, pH or detector signals, collects into any sized vessel, from microtiter plates to carboys, and performs front-to-back dispensing for painless access to fractions without pausing or stopping a method. A highly efficient benchtop Peltier cooling module preserves the integrity of temperature-sensitive samples.
Features and Benefits:
- Ensures maximum flexibility in a method by collecting into any combination of racks for microtiter plates to tubes, bottles, and carboys
- Increases collection capacity by connecting 2 NGC FCs and outlet valves to the NGC Instrument
- Achieves production batch capacity with 40 prep-rack adaptors per NGC FC, collecting up to 80 unlimited volume fractions at full capacity
- Enables faster downstream analysis with easy access to fractions during a run without pausing or stopping separation
- Maintains integrity of fractions with a benchtop Peltier cooling option
- Collects based on customized trigger options for each phase: slope, pH, and conductivity
- Comes with durable, stain-resistant metal racks
- Provides accurate positioning and increases efficiency because it ships factory calibrated
- Accommodates tube heights of up to 150 mm with adjustable dispense head
Applications and Uses:
- Analytical to preparative chromatography for proteins and nucleic acids used for research or as therapeutics
- Ideal for collecting multiple, large-volume samples such as antibodies and antigens for life science research or diagnostic kits
Included Components:
- NGC Fraction Collector
- Two aluminum racks for 13 mm tubes
- Tubing kit with required tubing and magnetic union
- External power supply and USB cable
