美國Covaris
Covaris公司成立于1999年,是一家快速成長的生命科學儀器公司。它特有的儀器平臺基于專利Adaptive Focused Acoustic (AFA)技術,為生物和化學樣品制備帶來了無與倫比的速度和效率。基于沖擊波物理的AFA技術,能將能量精準地傳輸到生物和化學樣品。整個過程具有非接觸、恒溫及快速的特點。全球領先的藥物和生物技術公司都在使用Covaris的儀器用于RNA提取、化合物溶解、藥物代謝物的組織提取以及許多其他應用。Covaris公司在全球超過25個國家銷售了1000多臺儀器。
Founded in 1999, Covaris is a privately held technology company headquartered in Woburn, Massachusetts, USA. The Covaris business was built upon its team’s in-depth knowledge ranging from acoustic physics, mechanical engineering to biophysics and molecular biology. At Covaris, our mission is to leverage our enabling technology to provide sample preparation instruments and solutions to the analytical and life sciences industry.
The Covaris technology foundation is its proprietary and patented Adaptive Focused Acoustics? (AFA) technology. The Covaris AFA technology enables numerous non-contact, isothermal processes to be developed, for use in a broad range of applications in both biology and chemistry, including Genomics, Proteomics, and Drug Discovery research. In many cases, the ability to impart both thermal and non-contact control of application processes could not be obtained prior to the development AFA technology. This gives Covaris truly unique competitive advantages, which translates into fast adaptation of Covaris technology by customers, as well as rapid business growth.
