Pressure Cap

Benefits of Converse:

Removing the need for a centrifuge – Converse™ Ultrafiltration Devices have been designed for rapid and easy concentration and buffer exchange procedures. 

The reverse direction of flow combined with the large membrane surface area leads to high processing speed and excellent sample recovery. With up to 150x concentration factor possible if desired. 

No centrifuge is needed with Converse™ Devices as they can be run with specially designed Pressure Caps. The Pressure Cap results have been shown to be superior against devices run through a Centrifuge; increasing the concentration speed and factor. 

SWISSCI Converse S and L Devices both come with specially selected membranes with MCWOs of 3, 10, 30 or 100kDa. Other cut offs are available upon request. 

 

Applications:

  • Ultrafiltration
  • Concentration and / or diafiltration for purification of biological samples
  • High solute concentration solutions
  • Protein and DNA desalting/buffer exchange
  • Nucleic Acid concentration
  • Recovery of Genomic DNA
  • Removal of contaminants

 

Benefits of Converse:

  • No Centrifuge required
  • Optional Centrifugal protocol
  • Rapid processing times
  • Excellent sample recovery with built in dead stop
  • Very high concentration factor possible (up to 150x)
  • Suitable for particle-laden solutions
  • Ready to use in standard 15ml and 50ml tubes

Benefits of Pressure Cap:

  • Saves time (faster than using a Centrifuge)
  • Rapid to employ with standard syringe
  • Superior performance vs centrifugal force – increased concentration speed and factor
  • Ability to watch experiment
  • Auto dead-stop – no sample loss
  • No specialist equipment needed
