1260 INFINITY II BIO-INERT LC
A dedicated solution for large bio-molecule analysis. The design of new metal-free components in the sample flow-path and the absence of iron and steel in solvent delivery ensures the integrity of bio-molecules, minimizes unwanted surface interactions, and increases column lifetime.
The Together concept can include professional guidance on how to use the instrument for your purposes in the Testa Center.
Item description
Features of the Agilent 1260 Infinity II Bio-inert LC
- Reliable analysis of biological samples – the metal-free sample flow path at 600 bar means that none of your precious samples touches metal surfaces and minimizes unwanted surface interactions while increasing column
lifetime. - Instrument variety – Inert flow-cells for UV and fluorescence detection and inert solvent and column selection valves for multi-method/multi-attribute analysis.
- Increased flexibility – with high salt tolerance (2 M) and wide pH range (1–13, short-term 14).
- Increased adjustability – flow rates up to 10 mL/min enable power ranges from lowest pressure for traditional biopurification columns up to high pressure STM analytical bio-columns.
- Active seal wash and quaternary solvent blending included.
- Ultralow carryover – the 1260 Infinity Bio-inert Multisampler is designed for low carryover using multiwash capability, to reduce carryover to less than 9 ppm.
- Bio-inert capillaries and connections – Novel bio-inert capillary and connection design and InfinityLab QuickConnect/QuickTurn Fittings offering.
- Faster pH scouting and easy buffer/solvent preparation – for ion exchange chromatography with Agilent Buffer Advisor software.
- Upgrade to Multi-Detector Bio-SEC Solution – for reproducible advanced analysis of accurate molecular weights and size information of protein-based pharmaceuticals.
- AdvanceBio column portfolio – Large portfolio of Bio-HPLC columns for SEC, IEX, reversed-phase, and peptide mapping.
Explorer
Alfa Laval Explorer pilot-scale centrifuge
Centrifugal separation is an effective and commonly used method to separate cells and cell debris from fermentation broths but is also used for numerous other duties.
The Explorer allows for efficient separation in pilot-scale and also for accurate scaling-up to commercial scale.
Item Description
The Explorer unit is a complete centrifugation system including flow meters, temperature, and pressure monitoring. A peristaltic feed pump is also available. The Explorer can be arranged for continuous or intermittent solids discharge. The feed material is transferred to the centrifuge with the feed pump. The separated supernatant is delivered under pressure to a reception tank.
The Explorer features Alfa Laval’s unique fully hermetic design for the gentlest possible product treatment.
The centrifuge will be operated by Alfa Laval personnel together with you on-site in the Testa Center.

NUCLEOCOUNTER® NC-202™
- Consistent results across instruments, users, and sites
- Use Via2-Cassette™ to eliminate human error
- Monitor production runs with DebrisIndex™
- Increased cell counting range: No more dilutions
- Scalable system with 21 CFR Part 11/GMP-ready software
Item Description
The NucleoCounter® NC-202™ automated cell counter is the most precise on the market. Our 3rd generation cassette-based instrument features improved hardware and new NC-View™ software. The combined inter-operator/inter-instrument variation is typically 5 – 10%. This means you get identical results with any cell sample, recorded by any user, anywhere in the world.
The DebrisIndex™ feature measures culture debris build-up. Debris negatively affects downstream filtering and purifications steps, so directly measuring debris facilitates better process development parameters. Learn more about DebrisIndex™.
The NC-View™ software is compatible with 21 CFR Part 11/GMP guidelines and can be integrated into your clinical workflow.
The disposable Via2-Cassette™ combined with the NucleoCounter® NC-202™ automated cell counter creates a closed-cell counting system, helping you stay protected when handling samples. No pipettes, no exposure to (toxic) reagents, and minimal clean-up make the NucleoCounter® system a safe option.
