Apollo 20 mL High-Performance Concentrators

with Accelerated Conical Focusing

Use these centrifugal ultra filtration devices with combined simplicity, speed, capacity and recovery for quantitative concentration, purification and separation of proteins and viral gene vectors. Their unique truncated conical filtration chambers provide a high ratio of membrane area to sample size. This, in turn, provides a high degree of concentration in a single spin as well as better control of polarization and fouling at the membrane surface. Apollo has the largest available sample volumes for a given centrifuge tube size

• >90% quantitative recovery of micrograms of retained protein
• Quantative salt/buffer exchange in a single spin. 1000x plusconcentration factor capability
• Fast concentration of up to 20mL of protein or virus sample
• Biosafety No aerosol generation or air locking
• No need for hand contact with wet surfaces
• No invert spin required
