BioOptix™ 10
Section 1 Introduction
1.1 Product Overview The BioOptix™ 10 system performs automated protein purifi-
cation on as many as ten liquid samples simultaneously. The
system has ten independent pumps that keep flow rates properly
regulated in each channel, and ten independent detectors so that
you can monitor the separation in every channel. The purified
sample is collected by a fraction collector — up to 300 fractions
per sample for unattended operation, or unlimited fractions for
attended purification runs. BioOptix 10 control software lets you
quickly locate the fractions of interest.
System highlights include:
• Individual detector on each channel.
• Unique gradient conditions can be used for each
channel—great for scouting ideal gradient conditions.
• Repeatable, uniform flow for each sample, regardless of
buffer gradient or sample consistency. Ten independent
precision pumps provide flow rates from 0.5 to 12
mL/min for each channel.
• Fast and easy sample loading—individual sample intro-
duction lines for each channel.
• Compact size gives you maximum capability in
minimum bench space.
• High fraction capacity—
❍ collect up to 300 fractions per sample completely
unattended,
❍ or unlimited fractions by manually replacing filled
racks during a run.
• Pumps designed for salt buffers and common solvents
ensure long life, low maintenance, no seal rinse fluid
needed.
