Rocket Synergy Evaporator

Solvent removal is an essential process for sample preparation across a range of applications in many industries. Many sample formats and solvents are used with no single technique providing a universal solution, but despite the variety of specifics evaporation is well-understood and relatively uncomplicated.

When introducing any new piece of instrumentation or equipment into a highly controlled environment such as an environmental analysis laboratory, the new unit must evaluated to ensure that it has equivalent or better performance to the existing equipment. Any impact on the testing methods can then be fully understood and the testing methods re-validated if necessary. With regard to sample concentration and evaporation technology the most important issue is sample recovery, especially for very volatile analytes. This application note presents Laboratoire départemental d’analyses de la Drôme’s (LDA26’s) evaluation of the Genevac Rocket and its ability to prepare large volume samples containing volatile analytes.

The use of natural products for pharmaceutical research presents a unique challenge. Besides the chemistry issues of isolation, the fundamental process of extracting and preparing the natural product can be very time consuming. This application report demonstrates that use of the Rocket™ and SampleGenie™ eliminates a transfer step in sample preparation, allowing companies such as the National Center for Natural Products Research (NCNPR) to save time.

This video presents a comparison of a rotary evaporator and the Genevac Rocket Synergy evaporator, for the concentration of 2 liters of winterized cannabis extract in ethanol.

Watch this video to understand which Genevac Rocket Evaporator is most suitable for your process. The Rocket Synergy Evaporator is ideal for small volumes, accommodating a range of sample containers, such as flasks, tubes or Genevac's SampleGenie: an innovative product that allows drying of a sample directly into a small sample vial. The Rocket 4D Synergy is designed to evaporate large sample volumes, up to 100L, to either concentrate or completely dry and sample.

Watch this video to learn about the Rocket Synergy high speed evaporator from Genevac. Rocket Synergy will evaporate samples in flasks, tubes, or a variety of innovative Genevac sample holders such as the SampleGenie. The removable rotor may be replaced with a 5L 316 stainless steel vessel for batch processing.
