Genevac Ltd., world leader in solvent removal technologies, has been appointed as European Support Centre for SP Industries, Inc. (Warminster, PA, USA) - a manufacturer of durable laboratory equipment and specialty glassware serving the pharmaceutical, biotechnology, educational, industrial, and OEM markets.

The appointment follows the acquisition of Genevac by SP Industries, Inc. from Thermo Fisher Scientific earlier this year.

Reflecting upon the appointment - Rob Darrington (Business Development Manager) commented "the strong synergy existing between Genevac evaporators and SP Industries' VirTis freeze dryers, pilot plant and production scale lyophilisers ; FTS Systems thermal control systems ; Hotpack washers & dryers ; Hull lyophilisers and Wilmad Lab Glass is very exciting". He added "We will now be able to offer and support European scientists with a comprehensive range of top quality products that will enable improvements in productivity and sample preparation as well as enhancing laboratory safety".

For further information on VirTis, FTS, Hull, HotPack and Wilmad Lab Glass brand products in Europe please contact Genevac.

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.Washing EquipmentWashing equipment is more convenient than ever before with automated systems, integrated and multi-application systems available. For instance microplate washers can be programmable, combined with reagents dispensers and used for applications such as ELISA, multiplex assays and PCR clean up.Labware and Lab SuppliesLabware and lab supplies include various forms of glassware, plasticware, reagents and personal protective equipment (PPE) and are used across all scientific laboratories, enabling daily tasks to be performed. Explore a range of flasks and beakers, petri dishes, carboys and storage bottles. Labware such as condensers, desiccators and burettes are also available for more specific tasks. Find the best labware and lab supplies in our peer-reviewed product directory: compare products, check customer reviews and receive pricing direct from manufacturers.CentrifugesCentrifuges are used to separate particulates suspended in a liquid via the application of a centrifugal force including cells, macromolecules, nanoparticles and precipitates. Centrifuges come in three sizes: microcentrifuges, benchtop and floor-standing centrifuges, depending on the volume and number of samples that require separation. When choosing a centrifuge, consider its maximum separation power indicated by its relative centrifugal force (RCF) value. Low force centrifuges reach a maximum RCF of 8,000 g, high-force centrifuges can reach maximum RCF values of 80,000 g. For extremely high forces, consider ultracentrifuges (up to 800,000 g). Refrigerated and vacuum centrifuges also known as concentrators are available for more specialized applications. A range of volumes are available for centrifuge tubes and microfuge tubes, depending on sample sizes. Find the best centrifuges in our peer-reviewed product directory: compare products, check customer reviews and receive pricing direct from manufacturers.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.
