When used with this firm’s DriBlock heaters, the Techne Sample Concentrator (photo) provides fast solvent or diluent evaporation with no sample loss. The height-adjustable head of the concentrator delivers a flow of inert gas that removes evaporated solvent from the surface of solutions in tubes or 96-well plates. The combination of heating from below and the flow of inert gas provides faster evaporation when compared to traditional methods of reducing the volume of solvent, which can take many hours. The concentrator features a patented gas chamber mounted on a fully adjustable stand. Inert gas is directed onto the sample surface via a set of stainless-steel needles positioned in a silicon matrix. Any sample format can be accommodated. — Bibby Scientific Ltd., Stone, Staffordshire, U.K.
