About Avacta Analytical

Headquartered in Wetherby, UK, with a network of distributors, partners and applications laboratories in all the major continents of the world, Avacta Analytical provides innovative instrumentation to the biopharmaceutical market. The Company’s focus is to equip customers with a broad range of capabilities, enabling them to develop their therapeutics quicker, cheaper and better. 

Avacta’s groundbreaking Optim 1000 instrument combined the powerful analytical capabilities of fluorescence and static light scattering technologies to probe multiple stability-indicating parameters at high speed, using ultra-low sample volumes of proteins and other molecules. Building on this success, the Optim 2, launched in 2013, offers even faster analysis and a wider range of measurement capabilities, complemented by enhanced acquisition and analysis software. The Optim technology provides greater insight at lower cost, and has now been adopted by most of the top global biopharmaceutical companies. This, together with a growing list of academic partners and citations, confirms Avacta’s position as a creator of original, high quality instruments.
