Biochrom 30+ Series of Amino Acid Analyzers
Instrument Package Biochrom 30+ (U.S.A and other customers)
The Biochrom 30+ Series of Amino Acid Analyzers
Biochrom, as a leading manufacturer of high quality Amino Acid Analyzers, is proud to present the Biochrom 30+ series.Capitalizing on its 40 years of experience in amino acid analysis, Biochrom has improved the popular Biochrom 30 platform on hardware and methods to deliver a faster, more reliable, easier to use instrument that gives scientists highly reproducible and accurate results.
- Accelerated Method for lithium system.
- PC controlled Biochrom Autosampler with faster injection rate and more efficient cooling system.
- Interchangeable sample trays that allow samples to be prepared in advance and stored refrigerated.
- Improved dual piston pumps with ceramic pump head, integrated pressure transducers and drain valve mounted on angled brackets, providing a smoother baseline and allowing easier maintenance and robustness.
- Ninhydrin filter/bubble trap allowing easier and faster line priming as well as an efficient online degassing.
- Nitrogen driven piston wash device allowing a continuous flushing of the back of the pistons without user intervention.
Biochrom 30+ Series of Amino Acid Analyzers are fully customizable. Please contact your sales representative or distributor for system ordering information.
