Cytiva ATKA Pure 25T Instrument

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention intends to award a sole source firm fixed price purchase order to Cytiva – Global Life Sciences Solutions US, the ATKA Pure FPLC system will enable multiple increases in a fold purity of expressed protein. Additionally, newer assays and methodologies, which can be performed only with highly purified protein regents, will not be possible through the utilization of successive and different protein purification strategies on this instrument. The FPLC model Pure 25T from Cytiva combines several features, which are ideal for addressing the challenges of recombinant Borrelia species protein purification and for analyzing and separating protein-nucleic acid complexes. The flow rate of the 25T can be as high as50mL/min enabling efficient separation over a large gradient profile to maximize purity of final protein isolated.
