Isothermal titration calorimetry (ITC) is the gold standard analytical techniques for in-depth characterization of molecular binding events.
Uses
• Characterization of molecular interactions of small molecules, proteins, antibodies, nucleic acids, lipids and other biomolecules
• Enzyme kinetics
• Assessment of molecular structure changes on binding mechanisms
Specifications
• Operating temperature: 2°C to 80°C
• Sample storage temperature: 4°C to ambient
• Response time: 10 seconds
• Cell design: 200µl coin-shaped
• Titration syringe: 40µl
• Usable syringe volume: 38µl
• Smallest injection size: 0.1µl
• Stirring speed: 500-1,500 rpm
Details
MicroCal Auto-ITC200 is fully automated. Users can set up samples in 96 well plate in a controlled temperature autosampler. Automated cleaning can also be programmed to reduce contamination between runs.
