\"Vacuum<\/p>\n

Solvent evaporation specialists \u2013 BioChromato has published online a description of how the Vacuum Vortex Concentration (VVC) methodology enables users of its Smart Series of Evaporators remove high boiling solvents including water, DMSO and DMF quickly and safely.<\/p>\n

At the heart of each BioChromato Smart Evaporator is a highly efficient spiral airflow created by a special concentrator plug or \u201cSpiral Plug\u201d. This novel Spiral Plug technology generates a helical flow of air or inert gas agitating the surface of the solvent, increasing its surface area and thereby significantly improving the effectiveness and speed of evaporation.<\/p>\n

Since the evaporation vessel on a Smart Evaporator isn\u2019t under high vacuum, there is no risk of bumping or splashing. By using VVC methodology – Smart Evaporators increase efficiency by eliminating the time-consuming task of cleaning apparatus, potential loss of samples and the need to repeat the drying process that can result from solvent bumping or splashing.<\/p>\n
