New products for parallel synthesis

Radleys (Saffron Walden, UK) has announced that it will unveil, at Analytica 2008, a suite of new products designed for laboratories seeking to enhance the productivity and improve the efficiency of their chemical synthesis or process development.

Visitors to Stand B2.550 will have the chance to see the launch of Carousel Mk3 - the next generation of Radley's market leading parallel synthesis reaction stations. Like its illustrious predecessors the Carousel Mk3 has been designed to provide busy laboratories with an easy to use tool that simultaneously heats and stirs up to 6 x 5ml, 10 ml, 25 ml, 50 ml, 170ml or 250ml round bottomed flasks under inert gas and reflux. Listening to users worldwide - Carousel Mk3 includes innovations that make it easier to use, easier to clean and more resistant to chemical corrosion as well as providing improved energy efficiency and enhanced reaction tube visibility.

Compact in design the new Cool-On™ is an affordably priced cooling and stirring work station designed to accommodate single round bottom flasks from 50ml to 2 litres. Cool-On is designed to fit on a standard stirring hotplate, which provides magnetic controlled stirring through a magnetic stirring bar in the reaction flask. All Cool-On bowls are manufactured from a rugged, chemically resistant HDPE polymer which is compatible with a wide range of freezing mixtures including dry ice/acetone.

Also on display for the first time will be Storm™ and Breeze™ - a new range of heating and cooling workstations designed to be used in conjunction with a Carousel Reaction Station together with a Radleys Tornado Overhead Stirring unit to provide unrivalled powerful overhead stirring to multiple reaction flasks. Additional attachment of a recirculating fluid heating/cooling unit allows a fully comprehensive range of heating and cooling operations to be performed. Other products on display from Radleys will include the Lara™ Controlled Laboratory Reactor, Heat-On™ heating blocks, Metz-Syn Heater-Shaker, Greenhouse Blowdown evaporator and Starfish™ multi-experiment workstation.
