Traditional drug discovery consists of chemically synthesizing compound analogues which are screened for enhanced or inhibitory properties. However, many cultures around the world depend on natural medicines found in plants, insects, or animal extracts.
Researchers are now looking to these natural resources to identify key components to be used as our next generation of bioactive molecules. Gilson has a range of extraction and purification instruments which are at the forefront of this research.
Two Step Purification of Alkaloid with Antimalarial Activity
As the drug resistance of malaria parasites increases, the development of innovative and effective antimalaria drugs is of high importance. In this app note, we describe how natural products provide a vast field of new lead structures that are effective in fighting the disease.
PIPETMAX® is an automated pipetting solution for the efficient processing of high-throughput biological assays. It will help you to improve on the accuracy, reproducibility, and consistency among all samples processed. Unlike traditional automation platforms, PIPETMAX comes in a benchtop size that easily fits into any lab.
The VERITY® CPC systems performs silica-free (environmentally friendly) chromatography for lab scale to industrial scale purification of natural products.
Our fraction collectors are compact and offer a range of lower or higher capacities. Each collects samples based on time, drop, or peak, making it a choice for a range of LC applications.
This GX-281 Liquid Handler provides a versatile, large capacity platform that can be configured for injection, fraction collection, and re-injection as part of a semi-preparative or preparative HPLC purification system.
The single quad VERITY 1920 Mass Spectrometer is ideal for laboratories seeking effective MS detection to isolate pure compounds. The versatile VERITY 1920 MS can utilize electrospray ionization (ESI) or atmospheric pressure chemical ionization (APCI) ion sources, providing application flexibility. The detector can be combined with various Gilson Purification systems and selectively purifies active ingredients from small to large molecules and natural products from lab-to pilot-scale.
