Analytical ultracentrifuges

Macromolecule characterization in solution

• Enables characterization of samples in theirnative state
• A specialized ultracentrifuge with uniquedetection capabilities
• Monitors a wide variety of particles
• No standards required: relies on first principles of thermodynamics

Beckman Coulter introduced the first AUC sample characterization instrument to help the scientific community power new discoveries. That tradition continues into the 21st century with the new Optima™ AUC system. This latest tool is the most robust technology for providing data used to determine protein molecular weight in basic protein research and quantification of aggregation levels for academic and biopharma research.
