Chemical reactions are generally activated by heat or chemical reagents. Recent developments in laboratory equipment have allowed lesser methods to become more accessible: methods such as electrochemistry and photochemistry. Photoreactors use light as a catalyst allowing for reagentless (also known as traceless) chemistry.
The DrySyn Vortex system is an innovative laboratory tool designed for powerful, parallel overhead stirring of viscous materials in round bottom flasks
BioAscent, founded in 2013, is a CRO based in Scotland. They provide a wide range of customers with integrated drug discovery and world-class compound management services, using Asynt’s range of lab tools.
Chemistry teaching labs provide an essential introduction to practical chemistry. They often offer students their first experience of working with the kind of equipment they may eventually use in academic or industrial research, experience that can prove invaluable going forwards.
Sub-ambient chemistry has a wide range of applications and, although less frequent than heating, represents no less a crucial area of research. Sub-ambient conditions can include anything from just below room temperature all the way down to cryogenic levels.
A jacketed glass reactor vessel is the central component of a jacketed reactor system. Constructed from borosilicate glass, these vessels can be single- or double-jacketed (vacuum jacketed) and offer significant potential for customisation—both in terms of accessories and structural design (more on that later).
Modular coil reactor heaters can be thought of as the flow chemistry equivalent of the magnetic stirrer hotplate. With the correct coil reactor it provides precise heating over the full length of the flow reactors volume, through which your homogeneous reactants are pumped.
A waterless air condenser is a condenser that uses the shape of the glassware to induce condensation. The heat is then carried away by air convection
The primary purpose of a jacketed reactor system is process development and scale-up in batch chemistry.
We look into the hidden chemistry of Christmas spices and how science brings to like the unmistakable taste and smell of Christmas
