Micro titre plate

Chromatography lab system for analyzing samples including a cooling compartment with an identifying device that identifies a fraction collector device

A micro titer plate comprising a number of wells filled with separation matrix. According to the invention the volume of the separation matrix is varied between at least some of the wells.

The present invention relates to a liquid mixture comprising a first polymer, which is a poly(acid), a second polymer, which is a poly(ether), and at least one salt, wherein the molecular weight of the poly(acid) is in the range of 1000-100,000 Da. The second polymer is selected to be capable of forming immiscible aqueous phases in the presence of the poly(acid) and salt. The poly(acid) may be selected from the group consisting of poly(acrylic acid) and poly(methacrylic acid), and the second synthetic polymer may comprise ethylene oxide. The invention may be used for separation of biomolecules, cells or particles.

Polymer two phase system and use thereof

The present invention relates to a simulated moving bed process, wherein at least one adsorbent is washed after binding of target compound and wherein the outlet of wash liquid from the adsorbent is subsequently passed onto another adsorbent for binding of target compound removed by the washing. In one embodiment, the method comprises binding of at least one target compound using three or more adsorbents connected in series and elution of target compound from said three adsorbents. After the binding to an adsorbent, wash liquid is passed across the adsorbent to recover desorbed and/or unbound target compound, and the outlet of such wash liquid is directed to the adsorbent after the next in the series, to which no feed has yet been added. The target compound is recovered by eluting target compound from the washed adsorbents.

Chromatography method

The present invention relates to a method of preparing a separation medium starting with an aqueous solution of spherical and preferably functionalised primary particles of defined size, comprising the following steps: The invention also relates to a separation medium produced by this method. The present separation medium can be used in chromatography in the form of essentially spherical aggregates in packed or expanded bed columns or in the form of assembled aggregates on a support for filtration purposes.
