Easy-To-Use Preparative System, For Laboratory-Scale Protein Purification
ÄKTA start™ is a preparative chromatography system for laboratory-scale protein purification. ÄKTA start™ is designed as a stand-alone system, with an 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.
Ready to go straight from the box, ÄKTA start™ is a compact, affordable protein purification system. ÄKTA start™ represents a quick and reliable solution that removes the hassles of manual approaches and provides automated control of the purification procedure.
ÄKTA start™ is designed as a stand-alone system that combines a front-facing flow path with a user-friendly interface. The system is controlled via an intuitive touchscreen, which displays the UV curve and other run data in real time.
ÄKTA start™ allows the implementation of all common purification techniques, like affinity, ion exchange, desalting, and buffer exchange, as well as gel filtration. The system therefore supports purification of tagged proteins, antibodies, untagged or native proteins, and sample clean-up. ÄKTA start™ can be run using predefined quick-start protocols, the built-in templates, or by creating custom protocols. Application-focused prepacked columns are offered for common applications.
ÄKTA start™ can be complemented with the Frac30 fraction collector for automatic protein collection, and the user-friendly UNICORN start control software, which provides additional evaluation tools and the possibility of controlling ÄKTA start™ from a computer.
