CEM Corporation - Liberty Blue™
Peptide Synthesis Made Fast and Efficient
The Liberty Blue system's combination of microwave peptide synthesis along with rapid liquid handling offers several advantages over conventional synthesis conditions including:
- Shorter reactions resulting in only 4 minute cycle times
- Higher purity peptides than conventional synthesis
- Use of standard, inexpensive peptide synthesis reagents
- Synthesis of peptides impossible to synthesize under conventional conditions
- License included allowing the use of microwave energy for both the coupling and deprotection steps
