22 Advanced rotary evaporators for separation and purifi cation
The Wiggens Strike Series Rotary Evaporators combine exceptional operational performance with ergonomic design, making them perfect for tasks involving separation, concentration, and purifi cation. These versatile evaporators are designed to scale from laboratory use to pilot plant operations, supporting evaporation fl asks of up to 100L. Wiggens offers a comprehensive range of models, from standard units to explosion-proof, ATEX-certifi ed versions. For specialised applications, continuous distillation options are also available, ensuring solutions for all separation requirements.
The latest addition to the series, the lab-scale Strike 185, showcases a modern design paired with cutting-edge technology. A large, intuitive touch screen display enables users to monitor all functions effortlessly. Parameters can be adjusted via the touch screen, turning knob, or a combination of both for quick, precise fi ne-tuning. To improve effi ciency, the integrated temperature controller, vacuum controller, and timer facilitate automated distillation programs, signifi cantly reducing process time while ensuring precise control.
The Strike 185 operates at rotation speeds ranging from 20 to 300 rpm and supports heating temperatures up to 185°C. An independent safety circuit prevents overheating of the bath tank, while real-time monitoring of steam and cooling water temperatures is possible when temperature sensors are connected. The system accommodates evaporating and collection fl asks in various volumes, and the heating bath tank can be adjusted horizontally up to 90mm to fi t different fl ask sizes.

Bio-Rad Laboratories, Inc, a leading provider of life science research and clinical diagnostics solutions, has unveiled the XP-Design Assay Salmonella Serotyping Solution. This innovative tool enables fast and accurate detection and characterisation of Salmonella species in food and environmental samples.
Salmonella is a gram-negative, rod-shaped bacterium responsible for signifi cant foodborne illnesses. According to the US Department of Agriculture (USDA), it is the leading cause of reported foodborne infections in the US, accounting for approximately 1.4 million cases and over 400 deaths each year
Utilising real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR) technology, Bio-Rad’s assay amplifi es and identifi es specifi c Salmonella serotypes using fl uorescent probes. This molecular serotyping approach facilitates rapid response during outbreaks and supports ongoing monitoring in food processing environments.
The XP-Design Assay provides a streamlined and fl exible solution for serotype identifi cation following initial Salmonella screening. Its ready-to-use format includes serotype-specifi c oligonucleotides (primers and probes), ensuring high specifi city while minimising cross-reactivity, resulting in reliable and reproducible results.
