BioOptix™ 10

Section 1 Introduction

1.1 Product Overview

The BioOptix™ 10 system performs automated protein purifi- cation on as many as ten liquid samples simultaneously. The system has ten independent pumps that keep flow rates properly regulated in each channel, and ten independent detectors so that you can monitor the separation in every channel. The purified sample is collected by a fraction collector — up to 300 fractions per sample for unattended operation, or unlimited fractions for attended purification runs. BioOptix 10 control software lets you quickly locate the fractions of interest.

System highlights include:

•Individual detector on each channel.

•Unique gradient conditions can be used for each channel—great for scouting ideal gradient conditions.

•Repeatable, uniform flow for each sample, regardless of buffer gradient or sample consistency. Ten independent precision pumps provide flow rates from 0.5 to 12 mL/min for each channel.

•Fast and easy sample loading—individual sample intro- duction lines for each channel.

•Compact size gives you maximum capability in minimum bench space.

•High fraction capacity—

❍collect up to 300 fractions per sample completely unattended,

❍or unlimited fractions by manually replacing filled racks during a run.

•Pumps designed for salt buffers and common solvents ensure long life, low maintenance, no seal rinse fluid needed.
