-- Improved resolution and separation of peptide impurities

-- Easier purification of hydrophobic peptides

-- Direct transfer from analytical to preparative scale

CEM Corporation is proud to announce the release of the new Prodigy(TM) 
Preparative High-Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) system. Key to the 
system is its unique elevated temperature capability that provides improved 
resolution and separation capabilities beyond traditional Preparative HPLC. The 
Prodigy was designed with a focus on improving the purification of 
biomolecules, such as synthetic peptides that often face purification 
difficulties due to only subtle differences with their synthetic impurities. 
The capabilities of the Prodigy can be utilized with column diameters up to 
50mm that allow for loading > 1g of peptide per injection.

The Prodigy's best-in-class performance is supported by an advanced focused 
gradient calculator that delivers optimized method transfer from analytical to 
preparative scale without tedious scouting runs. As analytical HPLC is often 
performed at elevated temperature, the Prodigy simplifies the transfer process 
by allowing use of the same temperature at the preparative scale. CEM is also 
introducing the Intrepid(TM) series of HPLC columns that are optimized for use 
with the Prodigy. These columns have industry-leading silica characteristics 
with minimal backpressure. Taken together, these features offer improved yields 
with less effort and waste for peptide purification.

"We feel the Prodigy is a significant advancement for the often-difficult task 
of purifying peptides. It is exciting to offer this system to the market, as it 
continues our commitment toward improving peptide production," says Jonathan M. 
Collins, Vice President of Business Development. With the release of the 
Prodigy, CEM now offers a complete line of synthesis and purification 
instrumentation for peptide production.
