Amersham Biosciences Introduces Tricorn High Performance Columns; Tricorn Columns Replace HR Columns as New Gold Standard for Protein Purification.Business Editors/Health & Medical Writers BIOWIRE2K PISCATAWAY, N.J.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Nov. 20, 2002 Amersham Biosciences, the life sciences business of Amersham plc (LSE LSE - Language Sensitive Editor :, NYSE NYSE See: New York Stock Exchange :, OSE OSE - Open Systems Environment : AHM), has introduced Tricorn(TM) High Performance Columns designed for high resolution purification of proteins, peptides and other biomolecules This page aims to list articles on Wikipedia that describe particular biomolecules or types of biomolecules. This list is not necessarily complete or up to date - if you see an article that should be here but isn't (or one that shouldn't be here but is), please update the page . The new Tricorn line replaces Amersham Biosciences' HR columns prepacked with media such as Superdex(TM) and MonoBeads(TM), long the gold standards for laboratory-scale protein separations. The high resolution separation achievable with Tricorn columns make them ideal to get the final purity of a protein sample. This will enable scientists to isolate and purify individual proteins that may prove to be valuable new drug targets. "The design of Tricorn provides simpler handling and direct connection to high performance systems such as AKTA AKTA American Knife Throwers Alliance AKTA American Korean Taekwondo Association (TM) design," says Allan Simpson, Vice-President Lab Separations Marketing at Amersham Biosciences. "Researchers in academia and the pharma and biotech industries will find that Tricorn columns are equal or superior to HR columns for performing high resolution, preparative pre·par·a·tive adj.
