GE Healthcare Life Sciences
The heritage of GE Healthcare Life Sciences stretches back more than 250 years. Since then, our tools for biopharmaceutical manufacturing and life science research have had an impact on the lives of millions. James Whatman dedicated his life to the manufacture of high-quality paper. The Whatman filter was pivotal in chromatography work that led to the 1952 Nobel Prize in chemistry. Meanwhile, other filtration techniques led to the discovery of Sephadex. Who could have guessed that it would have been the springboard to so many innovations in the life sciences industry?
Today, most biopharmaceuticals are manufactured using products that can trace their heritage back to Sephadex. Since the beginning, Amersham products have led the way in biomolecular labeling, detection and imaging — enabling breakthroughs in science and medicine, such as the human genome project. GE Healthcare Life Sciences is committed to carrying on this tradition of innovation and developing tools that help scientists make a positive difference in our world.
ÄKTA start is a preparative chromatography system for laboratory scale protein purification. ÄKTA start is designed as a stand-alone system, with intuitive design, simple flow path, and user-friendly interface. With ÄKTA start it is easy to purify a wide variety of proteins using built-in quick start methods or predefined templates, or by creating your own methods.
ÄKTA start can be combined with the Frac30 fraction collector, the user-friendly UNICORN™ start control software, and application-focused prepacked columns for an automated solution.
ÄKTA start offers the following features:
- Compact solution for quick and reliable one-step protein purification
- Sample injection and fraction collection options
- Quick start methods and templates for common purification techniques
- Intuitive touchscreen display and real-time monitoring
