Primary Screening Kit
Currently there are 4 kits for acidic liquid racemates, 4 kits for acidic solid racemates, 4 kits for base liquid racemates and 4 kits for base solid racemates. Each kit is equipped with 96 plastic vials which are held together by a plastic ring and kept in a rack with a durable latch.
The vials are 1.4 mL in size, requiring a very small amount of the sample racemate (0.03 mmol per vial) in 1:1 ratio with the resolving agent already present in the vial. Both vials as well as the rack are chemical-resistant and can withstand temperatures of -20º to +120ºC. This unique design allows scientists to perform an entire experiment without having to take the vials out of the rack. The vials are covered by a thermal seal that guarantees against evaporation for up to 2 years.
Key features:
- 4 kits per racemate, offering 384 combinations of resolving agents and solvents to screen against
- Disposable standard high-throughput kits, conveniently packaged for easy robotic manipulation
- Heat-resistant and chemical-resistant racks and vials capable of withstanding temperatures from -20º to +120ºC. The entire experiment can be done within the rack
- Resolving agent and racemate expected to be in 1:1 ratio; ideal for initial screening
- Easy to follow step-by-step instructions and results charts that describe the chemical contents
- Unique identification (barcode or alphanumeric) on racks and vials for easy cross-referencing and auditing
- Kits sealed with thermo seal, providing long shelf life (up to 2 years) at room temperature
- Very little amount of racemate needed (<0.03 mmol per vial). Amount chosen so that the resultant crystals can be seen with the naked eye
