Coulter SA-3100 (SA-BET)

The instrument allows the determination of specific areas (m2/g) in the range 1-600 m2/g and the simultaneous evaluation of the pore size distribution in the range 6-200 nm, by means of N2 adsorption isotherms. Fields of application: heterogeneous catalysis, fine powders, nanomaterials, adsorption.

Mastersizer 3000 Laser Granulometer

Mastersizer 3000 Laser Granulometer with accessories for the study of solid powders in dispersion and emulsions, with dimensions between 50 nm and a few millimeters.

Extruder Lipex Biomembranes

Preparation of unilamellar monodisperse liposomes by extrusion under pressure (up to 35 atm) through polycarbonate filters (200, 100 or 100 nm). The extruder can be thermostated with an external circulating water bath. Liposomes are mimics of cell membranes and can be used to investigate structure and function of membrane proteins as well as durg-delivery vehicles.

Imaging system Syngene GBOX Chemi HR16

Imaging system for the detection of chemiluminescence on blotting membranes. Also equipped with RGB LEDs and filters for fluorescence detection in agarose and PAA gels.

Liposome extruder

Preparation of unilamellar monodisperse liposomes by extrusion under pressure (up to 35 atm) through polycarbonate filters (200, 100 or 100 nm). The extruder can be thermostated with an external circulating water bath. Liposomes are mimics of cell membranes and can be used to investigate structure and function of membrane proteins as well as durg-delivery vehicles.

PCTPro2000 - Setaram&HyEnergy

This manometric instrument allows the determination of the amount of gas adsorbed-absorbed-desorbed in the temperature range -100°C - 600°C and from vacuum to 200 bar and the study of the sorption kinetics. Hydrogen storage can be evaluated.
