Product overviewThe BJP 20 is a benchtop static concentrator designed for concentrating laboratory samples without the need for a centrifuge. It accepts up to 20 ml per sample with the optional expansion reservoir (10 ml without reservoir) and features a dead-stop design for maximum concentrate recovery and easy sample withdrawal.
Applications- Concentration of biological samples and dilute protein solutions.
- Concentration and partial purification of antibodies and immunoglobulins.
PerformanceTime to concentrate (20°C) and solute recovery for typical proteins using 7,500 MWCO PES membrane:
- BSA 1.0 mg/ml (66,000 Da): 10 ml (10×) — 55 min, recovery 92%; 10 ml (50×) — 105 min, recovery 93%; 20 ml (10×) — 115 min, recovery 92%; 20 ml (50×) — 218 min, recovery 93%.
- IgG 0.25 mg/ml (160,000 Da): 10 ml (10×) — 70 min, recovery 78%; 10 ml (50×) — 140 min, recovery 74%; 20 ml (10×) — 160 min, recovery 78%; 20 ml (50×) — 290 min, recovery 74%.

Ordering & Pack InformationAvailable pack configurations include individual units (e.g. packs of 30 or 100 tests) and certain test-block formats (e.g. packs of 40). Individual units require the reusable acrylic stand (BJPA-AS), ordered separately. Refer to ordering codes for reservoir (BJPA-ER20) and accessories.
Key features- Maximum starting volume per sample: 20 ml with expansion reservoir; 10 ml without reservoir.
- Concentration factors up to 200× from smaller starting volumes.
- Membrane MWCO option: 7,500 (PES).
- Active membrane area: 28 cm² and low dead-stop recovery (50 µl) for high sample yield.
