Product news

Leading chemistry product innovator, Syrris, has developed optional upgrades to its range of Atlas automated synthesis systems. The introduction of new stainless steel reactors and a high temperature upgrade kit has increased system flexibility, making the Syrris Atlas product range suitable for a broader spectrum of applications.

Using the same jacketed vessel clamp, oil drain unit and fluid pipe connectors as the Syrris Atlas Potassium system, the standard glass vessel can be effortlessly exchanged for the stainless steel version in under a minute. Available in a range of sizes from 100 ml to 5 L, an integrated bottom outlet valve compensates for any thermal expansion, while the torispherical profile and consistent length to diameter ratio mimic the dimensions of large-scale plant reactors. Ideal for use with sodium hydroxide and other highly basic substances that would etch glass, the incorporation of the stainless steel vessel further increases the flexibility and usability of the Syrris Atlas range.

The development of a new temperature upgrade kit has also enabled the Atlas glass or stainless steel jacketed reactors to increase the existing temperature range of -80 to +200 °C, to allow a limit of +250 °C, making it suitable for high temperature applications. All upgrade parts are easily installed by the user, without the need for any tools.

For further information about the Syrris Atlas product range capabilities, such as pH monitoring and control, reaction calorimetry, crystallization, FT-IR analysis, etc. please visit the Syrris website.

Data software can be used for math and stats, technical graphing and image analysis. In addition, software is available for specific data analysis of electrophoresis, densitometry, ELISA and DNA sequencing.Medicinal ChemistryMedicinal chemistry is a broad discipline encompassing the design, identification, synthesis and development of chemicals in drug discovery. It includes a number of techniques covering structural biology, synthetic chemistry and molecular biology. Technologies used in medicinal chemistry include ADME, lab-on-a-chip, high content screening and assay assembly.Process ChemistryProcess chemistry is an important stage of drug development for scaling-up drug production or chemical synthesis reactions. It is useful for optimizing economical and efficient drug production. Process chemistry uses reactors and pump systems as well as reagents, standards and buffers.Protein CrystallographyProtein crystallization is the process of crystallizing purified proteins for 3D structure analysis by x-ray crystallography. The main methods of protein crystallization include sitting drop, hanging drop and microbatch. It is important to control parameters such as pH, temperature and concentration. Following crystallization, detectors and software are used for data collection and analysis.Clinical TrialsClinical Trials, an essential part of drug discovery process, assess the safety and effectiveness of a new medication or device in the pharmaceutical industry. Clinical Trials are a phased process (Phase 0, Phase I, Phase II, Phase III and Phase IV) which begins after initial preclinical testing.Robotic InstrumentsRobotic instruments can be used for high-throughput automation of many lab processes. Such processes use instruments for assays like cell based assays and ELISA, for sample preparation like shakers, centrifuges and incubators, and for analysis such as sequencing and western blot analyzers. Useful features of robotic instruments include speed, reproducibility, barcode readers, software and automation.CalorimetryCalorimetry is a technique used to determine the heat released or absorbed in a chemical reaction. Calorimeters can be categorized into bomb calorimeters, constant pressure calorimeters, differential scanning calorimeters, isothermal titration calorimeters, X-ray microcalorimeters, heat-loss calorimeters, and high-energy particle calorimeters. The choice of calorimeter depends on the application.Thermal Analysis EquipmentThermal analysis equipment is used for measuring heat flow, weight loss, dimension changes or thermomechanical properties and is important for analyzing a material’s performance and stability. Thermal analysis equipment includes differential scanning calorimeters (DSC), thermogravimetric analyzers (TGA), thermomechanical analyzers (TMA), dilatometers, thermometers, vapor sorption analyzers, boiling and melting point apparatus. Thermal analyzers can reveal properties such as melting, crystallization and glass transitions or other processes such as oxidation, decomposition, volatilization, as well as coefficients of thermal expansion and modulus.
