ÄKTA explorer is a fully automated liquid chromatography system designed for method development and research applications. The system simplifies the transition from laboratory to full scale production. Scale-up to production is predictable and trouble-free.

ÄKTA explorer chromotography systems are designed for fast development and optimization of any biomolecular purification, using one working platform for all techniques and samples. The method wizard and optimized system configurations, allow rapid media screening, method scouting, method optimization, and scale-up experiments.

Standard system configurations are available to suit most purification needs, but are easily modified if required. Systems can be used at flow rates up to 100 ml/min (pressure 10 MPa) to ensure minimized run times at maximum flow rates or at 10 ml/min (pressure 25 MPa) for applications routinely using columns that generate higher backpressures. Preparation times are minimized while accuracy and reproducibility of results are assured.

 Features:

• Flow rates and pressures up to: 100 ml/min and 10 MPa in ÄKTAexplorer 100 (P-901)
• Buffer Prep for fast pH optimization. 
• One working platform for all liquid chromatography techniques suitable for protein purification, from micro-gram to gram scale.

P-900 Pump

The P-900 series pumps have been designed to meet the needs of all chromatographers working with biomolecules. The pump design has been developed to overcome many of the problems associated with traditional high performance pumping systems.

• Designed for high performance liquid chromatography.
• Novel self-diagnosis and built-in features eliminate many of the reliability, maintenance, and performance problems of other pumps.
• Compatible with biomolecules and with all commonly used solvents in liquid chromatography. A built-in piston rinsing system prevents salt deposits and extends the service life of the piston seals.
• Simple operation using menus.
• Upgrade to classic ÄKTA control or exchange pump heads between the models P-901 and P-903 with only a service call. No need to purchase a complete new pump.

Monitor UV-900 

• Novel flow cell design and fiber-optic technology result in high sensitivity and high signal-to-noise ratio with minimal band broadening.

• Three detection channels allow simultaneous measurement of differently absorbing compounds and purity checking.

• Xenon flash lamp provides high sensitivity, continuous spectrum light, and long lamp lifetime.

• Simple to use either as part of ÄKTAdesign systems, see ÄKTA design - One Platform from Basic Research to Production, or as a standalone detector.
