A purification system’s true value is measured years after installation.
That’s something we’ve thought about from the very beginning with the Biotage® Selekt.

From the way the system is engineered to our warranty program, the focus is simple: minimise interruptions, reduce maintenance, and give you a system you can count on.

In this video, Senior Software Developer Anders Warngren shares a little more about what goes into building a system for the long run. Because reliability isn’t just about what a system can do. It’s about knowing it’ll be there when you need it. 👇

Save your spot for our live demo on Tuesday, September 29! 🔬

Join Thomas Smith from our Applications Laboratory, for a live demonstration of the Biotage® Extrahera™ LV-200, focused on automated, low-volume solid phase extraction (SPE) of a panel of basic peptides from human urine.

See the system in action and get a closer look at how automated SPE can support efficient and consistent sample preparation.

What is the biggest challenge when analysing antibiotics in water? 💧💊

During our recent webinar, we asked laboratories about their current workflows and the results highlighted some interesting trends.

Method development for polar antibiotics was highlighted as a common challenge, reflecting the complexity of extracting compounds with different physicochemical properties. The right method development approach, combined with automation, can help improve consistency and efficiency while reducing hands-on time compared with manual sample processing.

In this short clip, Dr. Vainius Skukauskas explains why these challenges matter, and why sample preparation is a critical part of the workflow.

What does automated low-volume SPE look like in practice?

Join Thomas Smith from our Applications Laboratory team for a live demo of the Biotage® Extrahera™ LV-200 on September 29.

We’ll be demonstrating automated Biotage® Mikro SPE for a panel of basic peptides from human urine, including:
• Key considerations when working with low-volume SPE
• How Biotage® Mikro SPE can support sensitivity improvements
• Building and optimizing sample preparation methods with the Extrahera™ LV-200

The session will be streamed live from our lab and will finish with an interactive Q&A.

Do you still think of SPE as just a cartridge? 🧪🧑‍🔬

Solid phase extraction has evolved significantly over the past few decades. Today, laboratories can choose from cartridges, 96-well plates, microelution formats and tip-based technologies, each offering distinct advantages depending on your workflow.

But with more options comes a new challenge: how do you know which format is right for your application? In our latest blog, we break down the strengths of each SPE format, helping you choose based on factors like throughput, sensitivity, sample size and automation requirements.

What if you could go from peptide design to assay-ready material in just 48 hours? 🧪

At IQM-CSIC, Dr. Diego Núñez Villanueva and his team integrated Biotage's peptide synthesis and purification solutions into a seamless workflow, enabling them to routinely produce >95% pure peptides ready for biological testing in as little as 48 hours.

"We can now consistently produce the high-purity material required for biological testing, ensuring we can advance from concept to assay-ready peptides with speed and precision."

Missed our Biotage® PhyPrep live demo? You can now watch it on demand.🧑‍💻

One of the most common questions we received during the session was: "Do I need different systems for Maxi, Mega and Giga preps?"

The answer is no.
With the Biotage® PhyPrep system, you can perform Maxi, Mega, and Giga plasmid preparations on the same system using the same software and workflow. As your process evolves and your plasmid yields improve, you can simply adjust the prep scale—without changing your setup.
