TA Instruments Japan List of Products and Services

The Isothermal Titration Calorimeter (ITC) is a device that detects the heat changes associated with titration at a constant temperature and is primarily used for analyzing molecular interactions. It measures the minute heat changes that occur when molecules bind to each other, allowing for the determination of binding ratio (n), binding constant (Ka), and the enthalpy change of binding (ΔH) from the resulting titration curve. Affinity ITC is an isothermal titration calorimeter that provides high sensitivity, high reproducibility, and advanced ITC technology in life science research environments. With AccuShot technology, it delivers precise amounts of titrant to the appropriate location, and the FlexSpin stirring function achieves efficient mixing and high sensitivity. The automatic cleaning function prevents contamination between samples. It offers the option of standard capacity (1.0 mL) or low capacity cells (190 µL), and a temperature-controlled auto-sampler for 96 wells is also available.

The TA Instruments RS-DSC (Rapid Screening Differential Scanning Calorimeter) is a device that brings innovation to the thermal stability testing of biopharmaceuticals. The RS-DSC enables laboratories to make more informed decisions and shorten time to market through high efficiency and streamlined analysis. Features of the RS-DSC: ■ Acceleration of thermal stability testing: Analyzes up to 24 samples simultaneously, providing detailed insights quickly. It also simplifies the characterization of high-concentration pharmaceuticals. ■ Improved efficiency: Utilizes disposable MFC (microfluidic chips) to operate efficiently with samples of less than 15μl. It eliminates the hassle of sample dilution and equipment cleaning, reducing contamination risks. ■ Informed decision-making: The NanoAnalyze software processes vast amounts of data, providing detailed and accurate insights into the thermal stability and thermodynamic properties of molecules.
