Traditionally, protocols for concentration of chromatographic fractions has involved drying multiple fractions in an evaporator, re-suspending pooled fractions into a single vial and then re-drying before storage and analysis. Even with modern centrifugal evaporators, such processes typically take 2-3 days to complete. The development of SampleGenie technology revolutionized this process, enabling samples in the Genevac Rocket Synergy, HT and EZ-2 series evaporators to be dried or concentrated directly into a single vial, eliminating the need for reformatting of samples after drying. Along with automation built into the evaporators, this simplifies the protocol to a single overnight drying step before storage or analysis. Not only does the technology remove time-consuming manual steps – it also lowers labour costs and improves data reliability.
SampleGenie 4 is the latest version of this technology for direct concentration of large sample volumes into vials. It eliminates a number of time-consuming sample handling steps and the attendant risk of errors. This latest generation further enhances the original design’s capabilities. Accommodating sample volumes of up to 250ml, and featuring a new vial adapter insert, it suits a range of vials from 12mm to 28mm diameter and up to 70mm tall. In addition, it has been precision engineered to reduce the risk of vial breakage.
The system is suitable for use in applications including environmental analysis, metabolism and toxicology studies, food and beverage research as well as post purification protocols in chemical/life science research. Genevac
