Introducing KinTek Auto-SF 120
KinTek Corporation is pleased to announce the arrival of the KinTek Auto-SF 120, the latest member of the KinTek family of products. It boasts the following features: - Automated sample loader, which can be interfaced with an optional robot.
- 200 µl of sample is sufficient to load and collect 6-8 good shots.
- Standard 10 µl flow cell.
- 20 µl per shot per solution.
- Has two fluorescence channels and one absorbance channel that can be observed and recorded simultaneously.
- Under complete computer control, courtesy of the KinTek StopFlow Software.
SF-300X Stopped Flow
The SF-300X stopped-flow instrument offers the ultimate in excellence for rapid detection of time-dependent optical changes. The SF-300X stopped-flow is capable of producing a dead time of 0.85 millisecond! and has the best fluorescence signal to noise ratio available—all in a standard 10 microliter sample cell.
SF-E100 Stopped-Flow
The SF-E100 Stopped-Flow instrument offers an affordable alternative, with great performance and price all in a small footprint, and using a portable PC computer for data collection and analysis. Contact KinTek for more information.
RQF-3 and RQF-4 Rapid Quench-Flow
The computer-controlled RQF Rapid Quench-Flow instrument has an easy to use interface, is driven by a precision servo motor, and uses a unique precision valve system. These features allow the RQF Series Rapid Quench-Flow instruments to examine fast reaction times (2.5 ms) using extremely small sample volumes, and allowing Double Delay Quench.
KinTek Explorer™
The KinTek Explorer™ is a powerful software package that changes the way you look at your kinetic data. Representing a paradigm shift in data fitting, it takes you past all the simplifying assumptions normally used in fitting kinetic data to extract mechanistic information.
