Recombinant engineering with microbes
This is by far one of the better water purification devices that are out there. Compared to the Millipore "Milli Q" this one takes the cake and doesn't break down as often.

Food research
I've used Barnstead Nanopure systems for over 25 years with no problems. Usually it was only necessary to change the cartridge pack and final filter once (maybe twice) a year, at a cost of ~$1000. I've had the GenPure xCAD UV system for 18 months on the same deionized feedwater source. In that time, I've changed cartridges 4 times, pre-filters 3 times, and final filters 8 times, at a cost of ~$4196. I will say that Thermo has given wonderful support in helping pinpoint the problems and did pay for a few of the consumables. They've determined there's an issue with the feedwater. I assume the Nanopure system was better able to handle it due to the multiple cartridge system. I gave my old Nanopure system to another lab in the building. We go to it for large quantities of water.

Water purification system
We are using this system to get the ultrapure water for our experiments. It works like a gem and we use the water directly without autoclaving for most of the experiments and have never encountered any problems.

All GenPure systems exceed international standards ASTM Type I, ISO 3696 Grade 1, ASTM D1193 and CLSI-CLRW.
xCAD (Extended Control and Dispenser):
- System provides more flexibility for ultrapure water dispensing with an action radius of 32 in. (80cm).
- Ergonomic dispensing arm provides precise volume dosing at the press of a button.
- Flexible dispenser offers positions including turned, height adjusted or extended toward your vessel.
- One-of-a-kind design provides access to all system controls at your fingertips.
Simultaneously dispense from up to three dispensers:
- Each system ships with a single xCAD Plus remote dispenser.
- For increased flexibility, add one or two more xCAD Plus dispensers.
Integrated feed water monitoring:
- Additional measuring cell monitors feed water conductivity.
- If the quality of the feed water drops below the set value, a fault message will immediately be displayed.
Online TOC measurement with UV intensity monitoring (available on systems with optional TOC only):
- Real-time TOC monitoring offers continual measurement of organic substances present in the water.
- Continuous monitoring of UV intensity removes the risk of false TOC values due to diminished UV intensity.
- Fault message alerts user when the UV lamp intensity is no longer sufficient for accurate TOC measurements.
UV Photo-oxidation 185/254 nm:
- High performance UV assembly reliably reduces the content of microorganisms and their metabolites.
- UV oxidation also reduces organic compounds in the water to ultra-low levels.
Leak detection:
- An error message is displayed when internal leaks are detected.
Ready to use:
- Feed water pressure switch, wall bracket, UV lamp, ultrapure cartridge, sterile filter, all are included in one part number.
Measurement of conductivity/resistivity:
- Conductivity cells are carefully calibrated prior to each measurement via built-in reference resistance with cell constants at 0.01cm-1.
- Temperature measurements are made by a platinum chip sensor with ± 0.1°C accuracy.
Quick-connect cartridge replacement:
- Aquastop quick-connect capability enables cartridge replacement within seconds even mid-operation.
Exact dosing:
- Electronic dosing yields fully automatic volume control of 0.01-65 L with <2% accuracy.
GLP-compliant documentation:
- Real-time clock and code-protected operating system prevents unauthorized changes to system settings.
- RS-232 interface with adjustable send-interval offers safe data transfer of all measured data, faults, date and time to a PC computer or log printer.
- Digital microprocessor control automatically monitors and stores faults from the last four weeks.
- USP-compliant conductivity measurement with temperature compensation can be switched on or off.
- Warranty: 1 year, parts and labor
