ÄKTA avant

Gain productivity with fast and secure development of purification processes.

Efficient：Quick start-up and efficient method development.

Scalability：Quick and predictable scaling of processes.

Secure：Operational security when the system is run unattended.

Productive：DoE functionality captures more precise information in fewer experiments.

Efficient method development

Create methods easily using predefined protocols for a wide range of chromatographic techniques. Installed in a network, share methods among users, monitor runs, and evaluate results from your office computer. The integrated design of experiments (DoE) tool helps save time and increase process knowledge.

Learn how representatives from the biopharmaceutical industry use ÄKTA avant to gain efficiency in their development of purification processes for biopharmaceuticals.

High operational security

Keep track of column usage and performance with Column Logbook. A high degree of automation supports operational security when system is run unattended. The built-in fraction collector keeps your fractions securely cooled when system is used outside working hours.

Accelerate your process development

Using the integrated DoE functionality of the UNICORN software, the number of experiments required to obtain sufficient process information can be greatly reduced. The software allows you to set up your experimental design and automatically generate chromatography scouting runs to save time.

Add increased automation to your ÄKTA avant system

Download and install the instrument configuration (IC) software for ÄKTA avant 25 or ÄKTA avant 150 free of charge for increased automation capabilities. The IC software supports an interactive process picture, in-line use of external monitors and autosampler, multi-step purification, and reversed phase chromatography (RPC) fractionation.

Scale up to larger columns

ÄKTA avant is available in two versions. ÄKTA avant 25 is optimized for resin screening and method optimization using small columns. ÄKTA avant 150 is designed for scaling up to larger columns, such as AxiChrom columns, as well as fine-tuning and robustness testing of the optimized process.

Use high-flow resins for shorter runtimes

Short runtimes are important, especially in manufacturing. ÄKTA avant can help reduce your runtimes by supporting high flow rates, and is well-suited for use with high-flow BioProcess chromatography resins from theMabSelect and Capto range.
