Laboratory Products 27 Flow chemistry system achieves landmark 300 installations


Vapourtec’s E-Series flow chemistry system has achieved a significant milestone with its 300th installation worldwide, marking a decade of innovation and progress in the field of flow chemistry.


Established as the leading entry-level flow chemistry system over the past ten years, the E-Series has been instrumental in numerous research breakthroughs, featuring in over 250 peer-reviewed publications. Notable citations include contributions to studies such as ‘Continuous Flow-Processing of Organometallic Reagents Using an Advanced Peristaltic Pumping System and the Telescoped Flow Synthesis of (E/Z) Tamoxifen’ (P. R. D. Murray, D. L. Browne, J. C. Pastre, C. Butters, D. Guthrie, S. V. Ley, Org. Proc. Res. Dev. 2013, 17, 1192−1208) and ‘C(sp3 )–H functionalizations of light hydrocarbons using decatungstate photocatalysis in flow’ (G. Laudadio, Y. Deng, K. van der Wal, D. Ravelli, M. Nuño, M. Fagnoni, D. Guthrie, Y. Sun, T. Noël, Science 2020, 369, 92-96) [2].


Currently utilised in 20 countries and adopted by major pharmaceutical companies worldwide, the E-Series has significantly impacted both academia and industry. Reflecting on its journey, Vapourtec founder and MD Duncan Guthrie remarked on its transformative role in introducing a continuous process approach to chemists globally.


With plans to launch new software later this year to enhance system capabilities, Vapourtec remains committed to advancing flow chemistry technology. The E-Series, available in four standard configurations, offers precise control over reaction parameters and a modular design adaptable to specific needs.


Guthrie emphasised the system’s robustness and ease of use, which have contributed to its widespread adoption. Looking ahead, Vapourtec aims to integrate


machine learning and AI into the E-Series, enabling automated reactions, data logging, and seamless integration with other laboratory equipment. As the E-Series enters its second decade, it continues to shape the future of flow chemistry, expanding possibilities and driving innovation in research and development.

Bespoke peristaltic pumps and pump tubings


Peristaltic pumps are referred to as hose or tube pumps because they are based on the principle of deforming a tube in order to create a suction effect. The task of a peristaltic pump is to transport fluids in a predefined direction. In this process, the tube is alternately compressed and released in order to suck the fluid that is to be transported into it. Due to this mode of pump action, peristaltic pumps are ideally suited for precision metering and continuous feed applications. The transported fluid does not come into contact with any moving parts. Peristaltic pumps can be equipped with between 1 and 6 channels depending on type. The number of rollers is a criterion contributing to a constant, low-pulsation flow rate. Depending on the size of the pump head and the tubing, it is possible to achieve flow rates from the µL/min through to the L/min range.


For more than 35 years, Erding-based Spetec Gesellschaft für Labor- und Reinraumtechnik mbH has been designing and building peristaltic pumps for an enormous range of applications. It also manufactures the required tubing, which must be as inert as possible in contact with solvents or acids and should have a long service life.


One great advantage of Spetec’s peristaltic pumps is that they are not manufactured as series products. Only a small number of basic components are identical, such as the roller heads, pressure brackets or tube holders. This means that each pump is developed to meet the customer’s requirements in terms of visual design.

Conventional methods of measuring the above often require manual shaking and can be stressful owing to the risk of the user coming into contact with hazardous absorbent chemicals. The GVA-710 eliminates the risk of injury and user fatigue thanks to its shaking mechanism and closed absorbent burette system. After setting your sample, closing the shaker’s door and selecting your measurement sequence, the GVA takes care of the rest, providing safe, hassle-free measurement.
