Rapid Evaporation Solutions for Natural Product Extraction Processes
22 Sept 2013The use of natural products for pharmaceutical research presents a unique challenge. Besides the chemistry issues of isolation, the fundamental process of extracting and preparing the natural product can be very time consuming. This application report demonstrates that use of the Rocket™ and SampleGenie™ eliminates a transfer step in sample preparation, allowing companies such as the National Center for Natural Products Research (NCNPR) to save time.

Rocket 4D Synergy Large Volume Evaporator
GenevacRocket 4D Synergy is designed primarily to evaporate large sample volumes, with autofeed if required, allowing automatic evaporation of volumes up to 100 litres. Rocket 4D Synergy provides fast, safe evaporation for solvents with a boiling point of up to 165°C (DMF) and can easily dry aqueous samples. The system feeds the solution for evaporation to the evaporation vessel, controls temperature and pressure, prevents bumping and foaming, drains the condenser, stops when dry or concentrated, and if required, redissolves the product in a small volume of solvent, unattended, and with no user intervention. The Rocket 4D Synergy can also be fitted with a removable flask rotor to accommodate the full range of Rocket Sample handling solutions such as flasks, tubes and SampleGenie. Now you don't need to choose between flask or batch/feed evaporation. The Rocket and Rocket 4D Synergy evaporators will accommodate your process, whatever the volume. Each is capable of replacing several rotary evaporators and saving valuable bench space.
Rocket Synergy Evaporator
GenevacRocket Evaporators use patented vacuum technology to evaporate solutions to dryness, or a concentrate, rapidly and safely. The latest Synergy series offers integrated, flexible solutions for processing a wide range of sample volumes. Interchangeable rotors will accommodate tubes, flasks and batch volumes of up to 100L. Rocket Synergy is designed primarily to quickly process larger volumes of solvent in parallel and without supervision. The Rocket Synergy Evaporator will accommodate six flasks, each containing up to 450ml of solvent, as well a variety of innovative Genevac sample holders such as the SampleGenie. The removable rotor may also be replaced with a 5L 316 stainless steel vessel for batch processing. Now you don't need to choose between flask or batch/feed evaporation. The Rocket and Rocket 4D Synergy evaporators will accommodate your process, whatever the volume. Each is capable of replacing several rotary evaporators and saving valuable bench space.
