Performing chemical experiments in microscale is easier with a new range of specialized kits from Kimble Chase.

Williamson microscale kits offer a selection of specially tooled laboratory glassware with patented thermoplastic connectors to allow quick, easy and secure connections. Other available kits feature components with GCI threads or 14/10 standard taper joints.

Chemists are supplied with everything they need to perform fractional distillations, chromatography, filtration, sublimation, oxygenation and Dean Stark reactions using significantly reduced quantities of chemicals. Kimble Chase offers numerous kits, including the Williamson Microscale and Macroscale Kits with all the glassware needed to follow experiments cited in the authoritative textbook, Macroscale and Microscale Organic Experiments (Williamson, K.L., 2007).

Microscale kits from Kimble Chase include the components necessary for many of the common organic chemistry lab procedures, including separatory funnels, flasks, tubing adapters, centrifuge tubes, thermometer adapters and stopcocks. In addition, Kimble Chase offers a selection of accessories, which include thermometers, aluminum heating blocks and condensers. The kits are packed in rugged polyethylene storage cases with die cut foam inserts, and are available with custom printing. Corrugated EKONO-CASES offer a low cost alternative to plastic cases, and both are sized to be easily stored in bench drawers.

FiltrationFiltration and microfiltration are used to separate solids, particulates or large molecules from fluids (liquid or gases) in order to purify the filtrate. Explore a range of filter formats, including filter paper, plates and membranes for your separation needs. While larger particulates may be separated by gravity filtration, smaller particulates may require additional force for timely separation. Microfiltration equipment includes vacuum filters, as well as positive pressure, crossflow and centrifugal filtration devices.

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.

This can be done in large quantities or small. Preparative chromatography systems are usually low to medium pressure liquid chromatographs that are semi-automated. Explore a range of preparative columns and fraction collectors. Find the best preparative chromatography equipment 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.
