23 Pumps, Valves & Liquid Handling Compact dry scroll pump expands vacuum choices
Edwards has expanded its dry scroll pump series with the introduction of the mXDS3, a compact, lightweight pump delivering exceptional dry pumping performance. With a pumping speed of 3m³/h, this addition complements Edwards’ current range of small dry pumps, which encompasses the nXDS scroll pump series, spanning from 3 to 120m³/h.
The mXDS3 serves as a sustainable alternative to traditional oil-sealed rotary vane pumps, eliminating the need for oil maintenance, replacement, or disposal. These scroll pumps are not only eco-friendly but also feature lower power consumption compared to pumps with similar capacities.
In addition to its environmental advantages, the mXDS3 has an impressive ultimate vacuum performance of 0.1mbar, making it ideal for supporting turbomolecular pumps. Edwards offers the mXDS3 in both standard and configured versions, the mXDS3s, which includes a built-in inlet valve, providing flexibility for end users, OEMs, and system builders.
Edwards Product Manager, David Goodwin said: “I am delighted to introduce this new small dry pump which is a great addition to our scroll pump portfolio. This gives us the opportunity to provide our customers more choice and fills a gap in the diverse range of products we offer.”

Advanced lab pump for chemical applications
Flow chemistry experts at Vapourtec have introduced the latest version of their SF-10 lab pump, the SF-10+, featuring advanced capabilities that extend its application uses, including the ability to handle hot reagents.
Expanding on the proven success of the original pump, renowned for its versatility and chemical compatibility since 2016, the SF-10+ introduces improved temperature control. Capable of heating between ambient and 80°C, the pump allows both inlet and outlet tubes to reach the same temperature, eliminating cold spots within the components. Temperature adjustments can be easily made through a user-friendly touchscreen interface or serial data commands.
These enhancements open doors to new synthetic routes and novel applications. The SF-10+ excels at pumping reagents before flow crystallisations or handling higher concentrations and viscosities. It accommodates reagents that are solid at room temperature that transition to a liquid state at higher temperatures, facilitating the pumping of products from batch or flow reactors, preventing precipitation upon cooling.
The SF-10 has already proved itself to be a versatile, self-priming laboratory pump, offering high chemical compatibility with suspensions, light slurries, and gases. Operating at pressures up to 10 bar, it ensures precise measurements and data, while offering compatibility with various electrical interfaces.
Dr Manuel Nuño from Vapourtec explained: “The SF-10+ builds on the benefits of the original pump with the principal advantage of being capable of dealing with hotter reagents, enabling tasks like dosing viscous reagents into a batch vessel or pumping them into a flow reactor.”

ADVERTORIAL Accelerating advances in antibody therapy
Creasallis, a UK-based start-up focused on enhancing the penetration of therapeutic antibodies into tumours, has received a boost from Integra Biosciences. As part of the ‘Integra supports start- ups’ competition, Creasallis is awarded 50 EVOLVE manual pipettes, GRIPTIPS® pipette tips valued at US $1000, and various lab accessories. This support empowers Creasallis to effi ciently pipette volumes ranging from 0.2 to 5000 μl, enhancing its capabilities for ground-breaking research in antibody therapy.
Established in 2021, Creasallis addresses a crucial challenge in antibody therapies -their limited penetration into tumours, often leading to surface-level treatment. The company’s patented CreaTap technology aims to overcome this limitation and can be integrated into existing antibodies. The recent prize from Integra allows Creasallis to elevate its laboratory operations, ensuring more accurate and dedicated pipetting for tasks such as cell culture and protein work, ultimately preventing contamination. Dr Joyce Ratti, Head of Protein Sciences at Creasallis, expressed gratitude for the generous prize, emphasising its signifi cant impact on expanding the lab’s capabilities and accelerating their innovative research.
