SX20 Stopped-Flow Spectrometer Accessories - Quench-flow Adapter
QFA.1 Quench-flow Adapter
The Quench-Flow adapter can be fitted in a few minutes in place of the standard stopped-flow cell/cartridge. It includes a milli-second dead-time mixer connected to a detatchable flow line (for sample recovery). In combination with the sequential-mixing capability (option SQ.1), this accessory enables quench-flow operation – i.e.
- Rapid-mixing of reagents.
- Incubation for a (user selected) period in the range 15ms to 1000s
- followed by rapid-quenching of the reaction and sample recovery.
