Genevac, part of SP Scientific, has appointed BioPharma Process Systems (BPS) as exclusive UK distributor for its range of evaporator systems.

Biopharma Process Systems have successfully distributed SP Scientific's Virtis and FTS freeze drying products for over 20 years. Ian Bailey, who has been Genevac Senior Sales Executive in the UK for over 10 years, will be transferring to BPS, taking his many years’ experience with him to his new role.

Alison Wake, Marketing Manager for Genevac commented "This move will consolidate our sales channels within the UK with one experienced and successful distributor whilst maintaining the personalised product support you have come to expect from Genevac. Ian Bailey will join a BPS UK salesforce of 4 led by Peter Williams covering the whole of the UK from their Winchester base. We are looking forward to working with BPS to further improve the UK sales support for the SP Scientific range and in particular the Genevac line".

Application support, whilst now available from BPS, will continue to be provided by Genevac (applications@genevac.co.uk). Service support will also continue to be provided by Genevac from their Ipswich headquarters (service@genevac.co.uk).

Rocket 4D Synergy Large Volume Evaporator

Genevac

Rocket 4D Synergy is designed primarily to evaporate large sample volumes, with autofeed if required, allowing automatic evaporation of volumes up to 100 litres. Rocket 4D Synergy provides fast, safe evaporation for solvents with a boiling point of up to 165°C (DMF) and can easily dry aqueous samples. The system feeds the solution for evaporation to the evaporation vessel, controls temperature and pressure, prevents bumping and foaming, drains the condenser, stops when dry or concentrated, and if required, redissolves the product in a small volume of solvent, unattended, and with no user intervention. The Rocket 4D Synergy can also be fitted with a removable flask rotor to accommodate the full range of Rocket Sample handling solutions such as flasks, tubes and SampleGenie. Now you don't need to choose between flask or batch/feed evaporation. The Rocket and Rocket 4D Synergy evaporators will accommodate your process, whatever the volume. Each is capable of replacing several rotary evaporators and saving valuable bench space.

Rocket Synergy Evaporator

Genevac

Rocket Evaporators use patented vacuum technology to evaporate solutions to dryness, or a concentrate, rapidly and safely. The latest Synergy series offers integrated, flexible solutions for processing a wide range of sample volumes. Interchangeable rotors will accommodate tubes, flasks and batch volumes of up to 100L. Rocket Synergy is designed primarily to quickly process larger volumes of solvent in parallel and without supervision. The Rocket Synergy Evaporator will accommodate six flasks, each containing up to 450ml of solvent, as well a variety of innovative Genevac sample holders such as the SampleGenie. The removable rotor may also be replaced with a 5L 316 stainless steel vessel for batch processing. Now you don't need to choose between flask or batch/feed evaporation. The Rocket and Rocket 4D Synergy evaporators will accommodate your process, whatever the volume. Each is capable of replacing several rotary evaporators and saving valuable bench space.

Sample PreparationSample preparation can improve the quality and speed of separation techniques. Products to assist sample preparation include filtration equipment, evaporators, membranes and sieves.Refrigerators Freezers and CryogenicsRefrigerators, Freezers & Cryogenics can be used for preservation or experimental purposes. Types of freezers include deep freeze, -80C°C, ultra-low temperature, explosion proof, cryogenic and controlled rate freezers. Freezing is also used in freeze-drying equipment for dehydration processes. Feature to consider in freezers include temperature control and recorders, failure alarms and self-closing mechanisms.Evaporators and Freeze DryersCentrifugal evaporation is used for solvent removal from a sample. This is a useful technique for sample concentration or sample drying. Many centrifugal evaporators are modular with a central vacuum pump for generating low pressure. Useful features of evaporators or vacuum ovens include minimal solvent bumping, solvent resistance, computer control, temperature regulation and benchtop design.Sample ConcentrationSample concentration involves the removal of solvents from samples using technologies such as centrifugal evaporation, lyophilization and rotary evaporation.
