Abstract
A microdialysis system for the dialysis of small sample volumes of protein, nucleic acid, peptide, and other biomolecules has been developed. The device may contain a built-in magnet to permit remote rotation of the device during dialysis. Double sided dialysis chambers can be used for electrodialysis, electroelution, or electroconcentration. Two or more chambers can be joined either by a union or directly for equilibrium dialysis, or other applications.
Claims13
A Microdialyser device comprising, a plurality of sample chambers;
- said chambers having one or more holes;
- said holes being a well, a cavity or a through-hole;
- said chambers being releasably sealable by one or more screw caps having a through hole;
- the device having a first membrane, for the passage of fluid and/or molecules, and a magnet.
A microdialyser device comprising one sample chamber having a sample-well and the open end of the said sample-well being releasably sealable by a screw having a through hole for dialysis or exchange of buffer and a membrane placed between the open end of said well and the said cap;
- said sample chamber contains a magnet.
