ÄKTA™ start chromatography system

Compact stand-alone FPLC as a
quick and reliable solution for protein purification in laboratory scale
Highest reproducibility thanks to
pre-programmed chromatography
parameter
Suitable for a multitude of chromatography applications (AC, AIEX,
CIEX, DS und GF)
ÄKTA™ start is a compact, affordable
protein purification system (FPLC) repre­
sents a quick and reliable solution
that removes the hassles of manual
approaches and provides automated
control of the purification procedure.
ÄKTA™ start is designed as a standalone system that combines a front-facing
flow path with a user-friendly interface.
The system is controlled via an intuitive
touch screen, which displays the UV
curve and other run data in real-time.
ÄKTA™ start allows the implementation
of all common purification techniques,
like affinity, ion-exchange, desalting
and buffer exchange, as well as gel
filtration. The system therefore supports
purification of tagged proteins, antibodies, untagged or native proteins and
sample clean-up. ÄKTA™ start can be
run using predefined quick-start protocols,
the built-in templates or by creating custom protocols. Application-focused prepacked columns are offered for common
applications.
ÄKTA™ start can be complemented with
the Frac30 fraction collector for automa-
tic protein collection within volumes of
0.5 ml and 15 ml, and the user-friendly
UNICORN™ start control software,
which provides additional evaluation
tools and the possibility of controlling
ÄKTA™ start from a computer.
APPLICATIONS
- Affinity chromatography (AC) of proteins, antibodies, untagged or native
proteins and sample clean-up
-Anion-exchange chromatography (AIEX)
- Cation-exchange chromatography (CIEX)
- Protein desalting (DS)
-Buffer exchange / Gel filtration (GF)
PRODUCT HIGHLIGHTS
- Automated protein chromatography
system a quick and reliable solution
for protein purification in laboratory
scale
-Easy to use because of predefined
quick-start protocols or the user-friendly UNICORN™ start 1.0 PC control
software
- Real time run and monitoring of UV
and conductivity measurements
-Highest reproducibility because of
pre-programmed chromatography
parameter (flow rate, gradient
formation and pressure)
- Large selection of optimized prepacked columns for all common
purification techniques
- Fraction collector for automatic
protein collection of up to 30
fractions in four different tube
sizes (1.5, 5, 10 and 15 ml)
