Product news

Bio-Rad Laboratories, a global leader in life science research and clinical diagnostic products, has announced the launch of its CHT™ prepacked Foresight Pro Columns, designed to support downstream process-scale chromatography applications across different stages of biological drug development and production.

Foresight Pro Columns are manufactured in a controlled ISO Class 7 cleanroom, providing good manufacturing practice (GMP) ready columns. These columns are packed with CHT Ceramic Hydroxyapatite Media, rigid mixed-mode support with unique separation properties used for the purification of biomolecules. The prepacked columns’ standardized design and format offer a more cost-effective and flexible solution than customer-packed options and are available in a range of diameters and bed volumes.

“The Bio-Rad Foresight Pro Columns provide the biopharmaceutical industry with a convenient solution to improve the productivity of downstream bioprocessing from the early phases to the manufacturing-scale process,” said Khaled Mriziq, Ph.D., Bio-Rad Senior Global Marketing Manager, Process Chromatography, Life Science Group. “Our prepacked GMP columns deliver consistent performance and eliminate the customer’s need to pack, qualify, and validate the columns.”

Gas ChromatographyGas chromatography (GC) is an analytical technique used to separate and quantitate mixtures of small and volatile compounds. Gas chromatographs or GC systems include components such as GC columns, detectors, pumps and autosamplers. Choose from packed or capillary GC columns, flame ionization (FID), photoionization (PID) electron capture detectors and selective or non-selective detectors. Find the best gas chromatographs in our peer-reviewed product directory: compare products, check customer reviews and receive pricing direct from manufacturers.ChromatographyChromatography is a powerful technique used to separate and analyze components of mixtures based on their chemical properties. It is widely used in fields like biochemistry, pharmaceuticals, and environmental analysis. By exploiting differences in the interaction of substances with a stationary phase and a mobile phase, chromatography enables precise purification and quantification of compounds. Whether you're working with complex biological samples or industrial chemicals, chromatography is essential for obtaining high-quality results. Browse our peer-reviewed product directory to find the best chromatography systems, compare products, read customer reviews, and get pricing directly from manufacturers.BiotherapeuticsBiotherapeutics are proteins and other compounds (such as nucleic acids) produced by living organisms that have uses as therapeutics or in <i>in vivo</i> diagnostics. The most well-known example of a biotherapeutic product, and the first to be approved for therapeutic use, was recombinant human insulin.Low Bleed Column
