Biotage V-10 Touch Evaporator
The Biotage® V-10 Touch Evaporation System is an innovative, fully automated solution designed to streamline sample drying and solvent removal in organic synthesis, peptide synthesis, and purification workflows. Specifically built to handle high boiling point solvents such as DMF and NMP, as well as HPLC fractions, the V-10 Touch enables chemists to bypass traditional, labor-intensive liquid-liquid extraction methods—saving time, reducing manual handling, and improving reproducibility. The V-10 Touch simplifies complex evaporation processes like dry-down onto silica for easier dry load preparation prior to purification. With walk-up, walk-away capability and consistent performance, the system enhances efficiency in peptide cleavage cocktail removal and accelerates compound isolation, delivering high-value products faster with fewer steps.
