Both products and techniques can help reduce these issues

The researchers report in a recent paper that using the miVac DNA concentrator, they were able to dry 44 samples in approximately 15 minutes

In recent years HPLC/MS/MS and UPLC have become the sensitive and specific techniques of choice for the detection of algal toxins in water

Linda and her team examine some of the best practices when purchasing a rotary evaporator

Rotary evaporators (“rotavaps”) have for decades been staples in labs and industries performing chemistry, including labs in the chemical, environmental, materials, life science, and forensics industries.

Rotary evaporators, or “rotovaps,” may be found wherever processes require sample concentration or solvent distillation.

System’s modular platform allows users to adapt to their changing needs.

The evaporation or concentration of samples is a common step in many sample preparation methods. Concentration of the sample happens when the sample undergoes evaporation and is often required as a final step before analysis.

Evaporators have for decades been staples in labs and industries performing chemistry, including labs in the chemical, environmental, materials, life science, and forensics industries. Key applications include sample concentration, solvent recycling, extractions, and separation of solvent mixtures.

When a scientist needs to concentrate a sample that’s in a volatile liquid—like acetone, acetonitrile, or methanol—a nitrogen evaporator can do the job. As a result, scientists use this technology in sample preparation in environmental, polymer science, quality control, and toxicology labs, plus others.
