Biotech Fluidics has expanded its family of non-invasive flowmeters for real-time monitoring of liquid flow. The range now includes four discrete devices optimized to operate from nanoliters per minute right up to 650 milliliters per minute. Operating over the flow range 0.01 to 80 µL per minute, with a resolution of 1nl per minute, the Biotech Micro Flow Meter is the perfect tool for precise monitoring of extremely low flow rates...
Biotech Fluidics has published a practical review paper that demonstrates how its MarvelX™ and MarvelXACT™ high pressure fluidic connections enable users to achieve reliable, repeatable, and consistent UHPLC performance. In this paper, fluidic experts explore the connection challenges facing users of modern UHPLC instruments. One of the biggest challenges in designing high performance fluidic connections for UHPLC is ensuring a reliable seal at the bottom of the connection port...
Biotech Fluidics AB reports that it is supplying key microfluidic and degassing components to BioNavis Oy (Tampere, Finland) for its range of Multi-Parametric Surface Plasmon Resonance (MP-SPR) instruments. Surface Plasmon Resonance is the ‘go to’ technique for the measurement of molecular interactions in fluidics including serum, saliva, and organic solvents. SPR technology beneficially allows evaluation of affinity and kinetics of molecular binding reactions without the burdens of labelling as the technique is label-free...
Biotech Fluidics has developed low volume online degassing modules for micro- and nanofluidic systems used for life science applications including dispensing, diagnostics, drug screening, nucleic acid sequencing and tissue culture. In most micro- and nanofluidic systems, the formation and accumulation of air or gas bubbles can be severely detrimental to their operation. Once a bubble is generated, it is also extremely difficult to remove...
Biotech Fluidics announce DEGASi Prep+ - the world’s first in-line membrane degasser ready to use at 150 mL/minute with aggressive media and organic solvents. Traditionally, efficient degasification of high throughput liquid applications including process chromatography, dissolution testing, clinical chemistry and dispensing has been a tough challenge. Until now, that is. Employing a superior Systec® DST vacuum pump, and proprietary Systec AF membrane technology, the DEGASI Prep+ is able to reliably provide effective degasification at ultra-high flow rates.
Biotech Fluidics has launched a new range of traceable, certified PEEK and fluoropolymer flexible tubing for use in regulated environments. Tubing is an essential part of every fluidic system. In many medical and life science applications, biocompatibility requirements from regulatory standards including ISO 10993 (medical device and dental materials), US Pharmacopeia Class VI (toxicity), FDA title 21 and EU Regulation 1907/2006 (DEHP content) strictly govern what flexible plastic tubing can be used...
The biocompatible flow path and minimal heat output of Runge Mikron detectors from Biotech Fluidics makes them perfect for analysis and preparative purification of biomolecules, especially in refrigerated environments. Based upon fixed wavelength LED light sources with a lifetime of more than 5000 hours, power consumption below 2.5 watts, and start-up within seconds, Runge Mikron detectors are ideal for incorporation into portable field instruments and online monitoring devices...
Biotech Fluidics announce Intuitive™ PEEK Nut - a unique patented finger tight fitting designed for low pressure tubing assemblies. Benefiting from a torque limiting design feature - Intuitive™ fittings provide a haptic “click” feedback when they reach the optimum torque, assuring a perfect connection every time. This unique, patented feature ensures the high reproducibility and reliability of your connections and eliminates the risk of over- or under tightening...
Biotech Fluidics announce REFRACTiMASTER® - a new HPLC refractive index (RI) detector suitable for detecting compounds with little or no UV activity including simple sugars, complex carbohydrates, alcohols, fatty acids, and polymers. Designed with touch panel screen and a highly intuitive user interface – the REFRACTiMASTER® is an easy-to-use refractive index detector truly built for modern HPLC analysis...
