Biotage - Initiator+ SP Wave
Microwave Peptide Synthesizer
In peptide synthesizer mode, this is the perfect tool for chemists synthesizing peptides and peptidomimetics, including difficult modifications and labeling of sequences, by using single or multi-step procedures. The intuitive Initiator 4.0 software controls the instrument functions and by using the pre-defined methods synthesis can be started immediately.
Benefit from the ability to perform reactions using microwave irradiation on a small scale. The semi-automated operation also reduces the consumption and waste of expensive reagents which occur in other systems due to priming of the system or use of large dead volumes.
