The Apex 396 Automated Multiple Peptide Synthesizer is the established market leader in parallel peptide synthesizers and single peptide synthesizers. This peptide instrument is ideal for producing drug discovery libraries, alanine scans, epitope mapping and peptide parallel libraries. Synthesis scales range from 1 mg up to 20 grams.
The Apex 396 peptide synthesizer is the established market leader in multiple and single peptide synthesizers. This instrument is ideal for producing thousands of any type of peptide and protein fragments, alanine scans, epitope mapping, peptide parallel libraries, DNA and PNA. Synthesis scales range from 1 mg up to 1 gram quantity. The Apex 396 peptide synthesizer has the flexibility and capacity to produce a single peptide, a few peptides or up to 96, 192, or 384 peptides simultaneously. The dual robotic arms accurately and precisely transfer reagents between any two points on the work table. The flexibility of the indexed tabletop allows for any shape, size or placement of containers. The Apex 396 is flexible enough for any type of chemistry, including preactivation of amino acids. The Apex 396 is adaptable for the use of different reactor sizes.
Due to the unique design of the Teflon® reactor assembly, the resin stays at the bottom of the reactor, allowing it to stay in full contact with the reaction solution. Because of this, the resin does not stick to the sides of the reactor, thus the Apex 396 parallel peptide synthesizer produces higher yields of complete peptides with fewer deletion impurities.
The nitrogen-assisted bottom filtration quickly and thoroughly empties the reactor while maintaining an inert atmosphere, resulting in quick emptying. This process, in combination with fast delivery, minimizes the decomposition of the peptide resin due to extended contact with acid or base and allows quick, thorough and efficient washing of the resin to prevent impurities due to carryover.
The Apex 396 is highly suited for resin-supported chemistry, peptoid synthesis by the submonomer method, PNA synthesis etc .
Collect all 96 peptides individually for their final cleavage with a cleavage block that provides vials, a small beaker, micro-titer plates, or a test tube containing ethyl ether.
