Experiment & Comparative Case Example
In internal testing using protein gradient separation:
• PW-G100 produced 20 fractions in a single run with sucrose gradient; protein concentration peaks at 280 nm and 260 nm clearly distinguishable.
• Band sharpness measured by absorbance baseline slope was consistent across fractions; variation <5% between adjacent fractions.
• Recovery efficiency (protein yield vs input) measured ~80% for standard protein samples.

FAQ – Deep Insights
Q1. What is the minimum fraction size (volume) that can be collected?
A1. Users can set fraction sizes via software; typical minimum is ~0.5-1 mL depending on tube size and media viscosity.
Q2. How sharp are the fraction bands (band resolution)?
A2. Under standard sucrose gradient, band width between adjacent fractions is maintained at <0.5 mm; variation <5% in position across multiple runs.
Q3. How are cleaning and cross-contamination handled?
A3. Automatic cleaning and drying protocols trigger at end of run; liquid-core flow cell and collection path flushed; residual measurements (if any) are less than 1% carryover.
Q4. Can users define custom fractionation programs?
A4. Yes. Up to 30 stored automated programs; users can edit collection speed, number of fractions, even run subprograms in sequence.
Q5. What sample types are compatible?
A5. Compatible with proteins, nucleic acids, macromolecules, vesicles; gradient media like sucrose, CsCl; works with ultracentrifuge tubes of various sizes.
