Beckman Coulter Life Sciences is unveiling its next generation analytical ultracentrifuge, the Optima AUC, at Analytica 2016.
This next generation analytical ultracentrifuge has been developed with many enhanced capabilities. It comes with a fast, sophisticated and easy-to use 38.1 cm (15 inch diagonal) touch-screen display and intuitive software that enables simple run-monitoring. Data exports can be performed either locally or remotely. Moreover, the optics are contained outside the rotor chamber, making it easier to clean, and reducing the impact of the g-force on the optics.
The Optima AUC allows molecules to float free and unbound so that researchers are able to characterize them in their native state.
It is able to determine molecular weight, size, shape, and polydispersity, and is capable of interactions between particles in a native, matrix-free environment.
It also allows multi-wavelength analysis, while improving temperature control and increasing data storage, wavelength precision,
and wavelength repeatability. The instrument’s modular design allows for the development of new detection systems, opening up the possibility for unique detection capabilities.
