Freeze-drying Christ 1-8 LSCplus

Freeze-drying is an essential method for the long-term stable preservation of samples and a necessary prerequisite for the work-up of isolated compounds after prepHPLC and for sample preparation for modern analytical techniques (BMBF FKZ:03WIR30IL1).

Solvent extractor Thermo DIONEX ASE350

Sample preparation is an important step at the beginning of many analytical processes. With incomplete extraction, results are often inaccurate or recoveries are low.Accelerated Solvent Extraction uses a flow-through solvent extraction system and enables complete, automated, standardizable extraction of complex sample material (BMBF FKZ:03WIR30IL1).

Highspeed refrigerated centrifuge Sigma 3-30KHS

The high-speed refrigerated centrifuge is necessary for particle-free processing of plant material after extraction for sample preparation for subsequent analysis while maintaining the cold chain. The high gravity fields enable fast separation of smallest particles and cell fragments (BMBF FKZ:03WIR30IL1).
