Bioanalytical Systems now selling large-volume fraction collector

The Culex Automated In Vivo Sampling System is designed for use on animals such as Guinea pigs. It collects volumes from 50 microliters to 800 microliters, holds up to 26 samples and refrigerates them at 4 degrees centigrade. The system works with most Sarstedt and Grainer vials and is a direct switch with BASi's smaller fraction collector that is used with small animals, such as mice and rats.

BASi, which is based at the Purdue Research Park, was founded in 1974 as a specialized instrument company supporting academic scientists with a focus on neuroscience and analytical chemistry. The company is involved in biology, understanding how potential new drugs interact with various species from mice to humans. BASi employs more than 350 people and is headquartered in West Lafayette, Ind., and has laboratories in Mount Vernon, Ind., McMinnville, Ore., Baltimore, and the United Kingdom.
