Used GE HEALTHCARE LIFE SCIENCES Biacore S51 #9053955 for sale

GE HEALTHCARE LIFE SCIENCES Biacore S51 is a biosensor equipment designed for both research and industrial applications. It utilizes surface plasmon resonance (SPR) technology to detect and measure how molecules interact with surfaces in liquid media. This instrument is designed for the study of binding, adsorption, and other interactions between proteins, nucleic acids, small molecules, lipids, and other biological species. The system essentially enables scientists to gain insights into the molecular basis of disease, uncover new drug targets, and study the structure and function of biomolecules. Biacore S51 provides high-sensitivity measurements which enable the study of small molecule/biomolecule interactions. Its Optical sensor is composed of two surfaces, one covered with a specific binding partner and the other with a surface detected sampler or "capture" surface. When the two surfaces come into contact, molecular recognition sites are formed, which leads to a stable binding of the two recognitions sites. This binding is detected and monitored by GE HEALTHCARE LIFE SCIENCES Biacore S51 via surface plasmon resonance imaging and data processing. The instrument includes both a flow cell and a laser-based sensing unit. The flow cell consists of a shallow cell with transparent walls and a lid equipped with a quartz window. The sensing machine consists of a near-infrared laser light source, optical detector, and a delivery/collection tool for signal delivery and signal collection. This allows researchers to observe binding events in real-time and get detailed data about the process. The Biacore ® S51 software offers a high degree of compatibility with a wide range of biological samples with flexible sample and binding conditions. The software supports multiple users and has a user-friendly graphical interface. The asset is controlled and managed using a computer with a Windows® operating model. It can be used with up to four biosensors in any combination, allowing scientists to monitor multiple samples and interactions simultaneously. Biacore S51 is built with reliability and efficiency in mind. It is constructed with a strong anodized aluminum housing and has vibration isolators for reduced noise levels and increased accuracy in results. In addition, the instrument can be used in temperatures ranging from 10 to 40 degrees Celsius and requires minimal maintenance. In summary, GE HEALTHCARE LIFE SCIENCES Biacore S51 is a reliable, high precision and easy to use biosensor equipment. Its advanced SPR technology is capable of providing accurate, real-time data about a variety of biomolecular interactions in a wide range of research environments. Furthermore, it is robust and requires minimal maintenance, making it an ideal choice for scientists seeking precise, reliable results.
