CENTRIFUGATION

Celebrating our 60 years of global leadership in centrifugation, Beckman Coulter designs, manufactures, sells and services a complete line of centrifuge systems, By offering unique rotors, innovative bottles, tubes and accessories, coupled with advanced centrifugation software, Beckman Coulter delivers powerful centrifugation solutions to laboratory science. Our two highest performance families are the Optima^™ Series Ultracentrifuge, offered in both floor and benchtop models, and the Avanti^®Series High-Performance and High-Capacity Centrifuges. The exciting new centrifuge products are the New Optima MAX-XP benchtop ultracentrifuge and the Microfuge^® 16 microcentrifuge.

Benchtop Centrifugation

The Allegra and Microfuge^® Series benchtop centrifuges provide high-performance and versatility. Designed specifically with key applications mind, we offer the Allegra X-15R with unique cell culture flask adapters and exclusive ARIES^™ rotor technology, which detects and corrects opposing load imbalances up to 50g; Allegra X-22 Series Multipurpose Centrifuge (extremely compact, only 18”/45.72 cm wide); Allegra 25R High-Performance DNA Benchtop Centrifuge; and the Allegra 64R High-Speed Benchtop Centrifuge.

Ultracentrifugation

The Optima L-XP Series Ultracentrifuges feature a sophisticated on-board computer with powerful eXPert^™ software and easy to use touch screen control. The eXPert software provides optimized run methods, run simulation software, calculation tools, rotor and tube catalog, automatic run records and more. These models include the Optima L-100XP and the Optima L-80 XP.

The new Optima MAX-XP benchtop ultracentrifuge delivers fast run times with up to 150,000 RPM (2,500 revolutions per second) and is exceptionally quiet-producing only half the sound output of other models. The user interface is intuitive and customizable with control via a full-clor touch screen. Optional remote monitoring and control of the system is also available. Not only does the Optima MAX-XP fit inside a standard biosafety hood, but it can be ordered with HEPA filtration for enhanced safety.

The Optima™ Series ultracentrifuges for separation or preparation of proteins, lipoproteins, plasmid DNA, RNA, subcellular organelles and viruses.

High-Performance and High-Capacity

The Avanti J Series High-Performance and High-Capacity Centrifuges deliver high-throughput and versatility to laboratory research. From high g-force micro-plate applications to 6-liter runs, the Avanti J-26 XP is a very versatile floor centrifuge. The Avanti J-30I performs sub cellular separations in either swinging-bucket or fixed-angle rotors with g-forces over 100,000 x g and the small footprint of the Avanti J-HC is a high-capacity, high-throughput bioprocessing centrifuge capable of rapidly processing three to nine liters per run.

Capillary Electrophoresis

Beckman Coulter is the Industry leader in CE technologies and tools. Capillary electrophoresis can be an effective replacement for slab gel electrophoresis and a complement and alternative to HPLC. Our developments encompass hardware, software and chemistries. Our CE systems are used for therapeutic protein characterization, ion analysis, chiral analysis, basic drugs, nucleic acid purity and more.

P/ACE^™ MDQ

The P/ACE^™ MDQ Series are automated, programmable capillary electrophoresis systems designed to perform fast separations from complex samples. Separations occur in a capillary, which is housed in an interchangeable cartridge with circulating liquid coolant, for efficient temperature control. This finely regulated temperature control allows the use of high-ionic-strength buffers and large-bore capillaries necessary for analyzing difficult samples. With CE, methods are faster to develop, easier to validate and less expensive to run. However, specialized system designs are recommended to optimize performance for different applications.
