Product news

Wyatt Technology Corporation has published a new brochure to accompany the launch of its advanced DynaPro Titan Plate Reader.

The brochure, 'DynaPro Plate Reader™: High Throughput, Automated, Temperature-Controlled Dynamic Light Scattering', highlights the DynaPro Plate Reader’s wide range of applications, including protein crystallography, pharmaceutical formulation and antibody aggregation studies. The brochure describes how the revolutionary instrument is the only one in existence that can make automated dynamic light scattering (DLS) measurements.

Illustrating that the advanced instrument is a breakthrough technology for the DLS field, the brochure describes how the new plate reader automatically analyzes as many samples as are necessary, saving the user literally years of work. Instead of manually inputting each individual sample and waiting for the results, the user can analyze multiple samples, leaving the plate reader to generate automatically accurate and reliable results. The instrument uses either re-usable or disposable, industry standard 96 or 384 or 1536 well plates, and features built-in temperature control as well as compatibility with the industry’s leading liquid handling robots.

Incorporated in the document are detailed specifications, which include all instrument performance information, as well as a full description of how dynamic light scattering works. In addition, this new brochure describes how the DynaPro Plate Reader is specifically designed to provide superb levels of productivity, reproducibility and flexibility for a variety of demanding applications such as protein characterization, kinetics, biotherapeutic screening, liposome measurements, melt index studies and compound analysis.

The new DynaPro Titan Plate Reader brochure is available free of charge in both hard copy and PDF format via the article webpage or via email request.

Protein PurificationProtein purification is a vital step in drug discovery, therapeutics, biotech and life science research. The purification process typically involves subcellular or membrane protein extraction with cell lysis kits, separation of proteins from cell debris by filtration or spin columns, and the isolation of proteins of interest from other proteins and impurities with affinity purification (including fusion protein tags and antibody binding proteins A, G and L), immunoprecipitation or chromatographic methods, such as ion exchange, size exclusion and immobilized metal affinity chromatography. All purification methods come in multiple formats for your laboratory needs, including agarose or magnetic beads, resins, columns and filter plates.

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.
