Millipore Launches Fast-Trap™ Virus Purification Kits
The Fast-Trap kits provide results that are more reliable in substantially less time than traditional methods by incorporating Millipore’s Steriflip® filter unit, an easy-to-use format utilizing a new anion exchange membrane that binds and elutes virus. The vacuum-based, closed-system purification kits are quick, easy, and safe to operate with a turnaround time of less than two hours compared to two days with traditional purification techniques.
Millipore has evolved from a high performance filtration products and services company into a leading provider of tools and services and a key partner of choice for Life Science customers. We’ve transformed ourselves through R&D investment, organic growth, and acquisitions such as Chemicon, Upstate, Linco, Celliance, Newport Bio Systems, NovAseptic AB and MicroSafe. The integrated Millipore offers more innovative technologies and stronger application support to streamline processes and provide consistently reliable results. The expert scientists in our Life Sciences business unit understand the complexity of Life Science research and can support our customers in their most difficult challenges in cell biology, stem cells, protein research, and cell signaling.
