ABI 3900 Upgrade
The ABI 3900 Oligo Synthesizer has become very popular for synthesis of standard and special oligos. ABI has not supported this product for several years even though there are many instruments in service to this day. The ABI 3900 instrument and software have remained fundamentally unchanged since its release. The 3900 continues to maintain great potential to serve our customers' needs.
With over two decades of applied experience in the field of oligo synthesis automation, Biolytic is able to bring you a 3900 upgrade that dramatically improves its performance, adds hardware features and comes with a completely new software package, written from the ground up, to run on the latest version of Windows. If you are looking for ABI 3900 service, ABI 3900 parts or an ABI 3900 upgrade, please consider our ABI 3900 upgrade for all of your ABI 3900 needs.
The ABI 3900 Upgrade Works With The Following Instruments:
- ABI 3900
- Geneforge 48
- Mermade 48
- Northwest 48
Features
The upgrade comes packed with new hardware and software features as well as a new computer and monitor running the latest Windows operating system. Included in the upgrade are state of the art valve and motion control systems.
The ABI 3900 upgrade offers the ability to completely remove reverse flow cross contamination thereby reducing error rates in gene construction, allowing the use of up to 10 special amidites and the ability to simultaneously use 2 different oxidizer reagents. The new ABI 3900 Upgrade has increased efficiency of the ABI 3900 by allowing finer control of reagent flow rate through the columns resulting in efficient diffusion of the reagents at the reaction site and lower reagent consumption. The chamber volume has been lowered, reducing gas consumption and increasing efficiency. A new chamber flood damage control system has been implemented which redirects chamber flood reagents to waste instead of leaking them internally. The new software is built for Windows 8 and features flexible protocol construction similar to the world renowned Dr. Oligo Synthesizer. The software supports truly independent protocol operation on each bank of 12 oligos while providing the user with real-time feedback during each synthesis run.
