Isolera™ Prime

Is the new standard in value-priced flash purification systems delivering a full range of features and time and cost-saving benefits. This flexible entry level ACI™ Accelerated Chromatographic Isolation system is upgradeable and grows with the needs of laboratories and universities where value is especially important. Isolera Prime is compatible with Biotage flash cartridges, including the new value-priced Biotage ZIP®.

The Isolera Prime is specifically designed for chemists needing an automated purification platform to increase productivity delivering high value and just the right features.

Superior Results with Biotage Flash Cartridges 

Forget the rule of thumb. Isolera Prime systems recommend the optimal cartridge for the sample. 

Value

The entry level Isolera™ Prime delivers more than just the basics. Included as standard is a patented TLC-to-Gradient feature that eliminates method development guesswork and a solvent-saving gradient optimization function that reduces solvent use by up to 60%. Cost savings are further realized with use of the new value-priced, high performing Biotage ZIP cartridges available in wide range of sizes. 

Performance

Isolera™ Prime performs at flow rates upto 100 mL/min with a pressure range up to 145 psi (10 bars).  The built-in UV detector (a choice of dual wavelength or fixed options exist) provide excellent detection for aromatic and conjugated organic compounds and can trigger fractionation using threshold, slope, or volume parameters.

Method Editing 

Isolera methods may be created in many different ways.For small samples without TLC, open a default method and press run. For solvent intensive or larger samples, use the simple TLC to flash-gradient conversion tool.

Change your mind? Methods can easily be edited either on the touch screen or remotely from the comfort of your office. Edit by table or drag and drop, change flow rate, collection volume, fraction wavelengths, modes or add more collection racks if you need to – all while the run is in progress.  You can also use up to four solvents in a single gradient to easily purify samples with diverse polarity. 

Flexibility

Isolera™ Prime can be upgraded and customized to any laboratory’s requirements with the addition of a range of accessories, including external dry-loading vessels, leak detector, fraction racks and cartridge holders.  Biotage also offers the widest range of flash cartridges for higher performance and scalability including Biotage ZIP® and Biotage ZIP Sphere®, industry-standard Biotage SNAP®, gold Standard SNAP ULTRA®, and ISOLUTE® cartridge products.

Enhance productivity with on-the-fly editing

Isolera methods can easily be edited either in front of the Isolera or from the comfort of your office. Edit the gradient (click & drag points AND segments), flow rate, collection volume, fraction wavelengths and modes, and add more collection racks if you need to – all while the run is in progress. Gradient changes can now be made with a simplified graphical interface or through a table layout.
