The Cole-Parmer® SC-200 Sample Concentrator is a high-performance gas-driven evaporator designed to accelerate sample concentration by directing a controlled stream of nitrogen or dry gas onto the sample surface. This efficient evaporation system is widely used in molecular biology, chemistry, and pharmaceutical laboratories for sample preparation, solvent removal, and concentration of analytes.
The SC-200 is designed to be used with a compatible block heater (sold separately) to provide enhanced temperature control for evaporation. It includes a gas reservoir and stand to ensure uniform and controlled nitrogen flow, improving solvent evaporation rates while minimizing sample loss.
Key Features & Benefits
1. Efficient & Accelerated Sample Concentration
