Overview

The Thermo Scientific Savant DNA130 is a dedicated centrifugal vacuum concentration system for drying low volume ethanol or isopropanol of DNA and RNA. DNA130 SpeedVac™ combines centrifugal force with vacuum for efficient sample drying. The vacuum is supplied by an integrated oil-free vacuum pump with an automatic bleeder valve. DNA130 SpeedVac™ has a chamber heater that counteracts evaporative sample cooling and accelerates solvent evaporation rates to shorten drying times. The operator can select the drying temperature from 35°C to 65°C, in 5°C increments. The DNA130 features a fan on the back of the unit that ensures chamber temperature remains close to the ambient temperature when no heat is applied. This allows the samples to remain within the ambient temperature.
