| 20080252886 | System and Method for Solubility Curve and Metastable Zone Determination - A system for determining a solubility of a substance comprises a holder to hold a sample comprising an amount of the substance and an amount of the solvent system. The system further comprises a temperature conditioner to alter a temperature of the sample, an optical measurement device to measure an optical parameter of the sample and a control device to control at least the temperature conditioner and the optical measurement device. The control device may be programmed to alter the temperature of the sample by the temperature conditioner, measure the optical parameter of the sample by the optical measurement device, and determine the solubility of the substance from a change of the optical parameter of the sample as a function of the temperature. | 10-16-2008 |
| 20090205412 | Method For Obtaining And Analyzing Solids, Preferably Crystals - The present invention pertains to a method for obtaining and analyzing solids, preferably crystals, which method comprises the following steps: providing a well plate, the well plate comprising a plurality of wells, each of the wells having a depth and an open upper end and each of the wells being provided with a filter having pores, which filter is arranged at a distance below the open upper end, each of the wells having an upper inner wall part above the filter that has a fluid contact surface and each filter having a top filter surface, at least both the fluid contact surface of the well and the top filter surface being of a material that is at least substantially inert for organic and/or aqueous solvents and/or mixtures of organic and aqueous solvents, providing one or more substances and one or more solvents in at least one of the wells of the well plate, applying conditions to dissolve the one or more substances in the one or more solvents; applying conditions for crystallizing at least a part of the substance so that solids are formed in the at least one well, substantially removing the part of the substance that remains in solution, thereby leaving the solids, preferably crystals, that were formed from the substance in the well of the well plate in which they were formed, performing further investigation of the solids, preferably crystals in the well of the well plate where they were formed. | 08-20-2009 |
| 20110009295 | SYSTEM, HEATING BLOCK AND METHOD - The present invention provides a system, comprising at least one reactor array, comprising at least two reactor vessels ( | 01-13-2011 |
| 20110108132 | REACTION ASSEMBLY AND FLOW SPLITTER - The invention pertains to reaction systems in which at least one capillary unit is applied. The capillary unit comprises: —a unit inlet for receiving a fluid flow, —a unit outlet for releasing said fluid flow, —a capillary, which capillary is arranged between the unit inlet and the unit outlet such that said fluid flow passes through the capillary, —a heater and/or a cooler for adjusting the temperature of the capillary and therewith influencing the flow rate of the fluid flow passing through said capillary, —a housing for accommodating at least the capillary and heater and/or cooler of said capillary unit, which housing provides thermal insulation of the capillary, —a flow sensor for measuring the flow rate of the fluid flow through the capillary unit, which flow sensor can be arranged either inside or outside the housing, A capillary unit is combined with or further has a flow adjustment unit for adjusting the flow rates of the secondary fluid flows, which flow adjustment unit comprises a temperature control device for individually controlling the heater and/or cooler of each capillary unit in response to the flow rate that is measured by the flow sensor of that capillary unit. | 05-12-2011 |
