Rapidly synthesize high quality peptides using the microwave or parallel peptide synthesizer
The Biotage® Syro Wave™ system is a programmable peptide synthesizer that is capable of both conventional room temperature parallel peptide synthesis and microwave assisted peptide synthesis. The system is a fully automated and computer controlled peptide synthesizer, based on a pipetting robot with a single arm.
The Biotage Syro Wave system is a combination of the MultiSynTech Syro I and Biotage Initiator 1 instruments, controlled by a single PC. This is the only system available with both microwave and parallel peptide synthesis capabilities. With the Syro Wave peptide synthesizer Biotage offers a system with a proven pedigree and history of performance and reliability.
Benefit from the unique ability to make part of the peptide sequence using conventional solid phase peptide synthesis on the parallel reactor block and then transfer the reactor vial to the microwave cavity to drive difficult couplings to completion.
Economically Synthesize Difficult Sequences
Use microwave irradiation and standard reagents to synthesize difficult sequences that are problematic or even impossible to synthesize using standard methods.
Save Time and Increase Productivity
Automated parallel operation allows for the synthesis of more peptides in shorter times resulting in the highest productivity. Reduce cycle times even further using microwave irradiation.
Increase Yield and Purity
Accurate dispensing of exact volumes of all reactants and vortexing of the reaction mixture, guarantee the optimal result in terms of yield and purity while minimizing waste and costs.
Detailed Reagent Calculation
The easy to use Syro XP software controls the instrument functions and calculates all amounts and volumes of amino acids and reagents required.

Syro XP Software
Reduce Coupling Costs
The use of a digital syringe pump and minimized flow paths lead to low amino acid and reagent consumption. This reduces coupling and running costs compared to other systems.
