OverviewFast, controlled well-plate evaporation using heated nitrogen flow delivered above and below each well. Independent airflow control reduces splashing and cross-contamination while preserving sample integrity for sensitive peptide and bioanalytical workflows. Offers a rapid, straightforward alternative to lyophilization for solvent removal directly in microplates.
Key features- Heated gas flow from both above and below wells to accelerate evaporation
- Independent airflow control per head to prevent splashing and cross-contamination
- Support for multiple plate formats: 24, 48, 96, 384 wells
- Compact, user-friendly design for high-throughput laboratories
- Suitable for sensitive peptide and bioanalytical workflows
- Available in single-plate and dual-plate evaporation configurations
Configurations- Biotage® SPE Dry 96 — single microplate evaporation
- Biotage® SPE Dry 96 Dual — simultaneous evaporation of two plates (Dual)
Applications- Solvent removal directly in well plates
- High-throughput sample concentration and preparation workflows
- Peptide workflows and other procedures sensitive to splashing or cross-contamination
