SpinMate Ultrafiltration Concentrators from Protein Ark

Greater efficiency in protein purification

The demands on modern protein purification are constantly increasing: Higher yields, lower sample losses, and reproducible results are essential today, especially when working with sensitive proteins, antibodies, nucleic acids, or viral particles. This is exactly where Protein Ark comes in. With a clear focus on practical solutions for the life sciences, Protein Ark develops products that make everyday lab work more efficient and reliable.

With SpinMate, Protein Ark offers a modern ultrafiltration solution specifically tailored to the demands of your research: high recovery rates, fast processing, minimized membrane fouling, and maximum protection for sensitive samples. For laboratories that prioritize reproducible results and efficient workflows, the SpinMate Ultrafiltration Concentrators are a powerful addition to the field of protein purification and biomolecule processing.

 

An Overview of the SpinsMate Ultrafiltration Concentrators

 

High recovery rates of over 90%

 

A key factor when working with valuable samples is the recovery rate. SpinMate Concentrators typically achieve protein recoveries of over 90%, even with diluted starting samples. This significantly reduces sample loss and improves the reproducibility of subsequent analyses.

 

Innovative vertical membrane design

 

A key distinguishing feature of the SpinMate series is its dual-sided vertical membrane design. This significantly minimizes concentration polarization and membrane clogging while ensuring high filtration efficiency and fast processing times. Compared to traditional horizontal designs, users benefit from shorter centrifugation times and more consistent results.

 

Protection of sensitive samples with Anti-Dry-Lock technology

 

Over-centrifugation is one of the most common causes of irreversible protein loss. SpinMate features a built-in anti-dry-lock design that prevents the sample from drying out, thereby protecting the stability of sensitive biomolecules. This offers significant added value in everyday laboratory work, particularly when working with antibodies, enzymes, or exosomes.

 

Low non-specific binding thanks to the PES membrane

 

The polyethersulfone (PES) membrane used is characterized by exceptionally low protein and nucleic acid adsorption. This minimizes losses due to nonspecific binding—a key advantage when working with low sample concentrations or “sticky proteins.”

 

Versatile for a wide range of applications

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The SpinMate series is available in three volume sizes—0.5 mL, 4 mL, and 15 mL—each with MWCOs ranging from 5 kDa to 100 kDa. This makes the systems ideal for:

 

• Protein concentration and buffer exchange
• Antibody and enzyme purification
• Virus and exosome concentration
• Nucleic acid preparation
• Removal of small molecules and salts
• Sample preparation for HPLC or mass spectrometry

A particularly useful feature: The 0.5-mL version allows for quick and efficient sample recovery using a convenient reverse-spin function.
