ACOS™ Lab Products

Anthill Technologies offers a line of ACOS™ Networked Products that are engineered for chemists working in fast paced research environments. ACOS™ compatibility allows researchers to know that all standard devices and tools in the ACOS™ product line will work seamlessly with each other. ACOS™ Networked Products can be utilized as stand-alone tools or integrated into a networked operating system, from which information can be shared across an organization.

Anthill's ACOS™ Networked Products include:

  • 1-4 block thermal shaker units that enable programmable heating and shaking of vials containing chemical compounds;
  • Reaction blocks that adapt automated laboratory equipment, such as TECANs, to handle custom formatted matrices of chemical vials;
  • Solid dispensers that allow for quick, easy and precise measurement of solids to be simultaneously dispersed into multiple vials;
  • Positive pressure solid phase extraction manifolds that maintain chemical vials under constant pressure to accelerate chemical reactions; and
  • An array of glass vials and Teflon-lined caps for use with Anthill Technologies' thermal shakers and reaction blocks.

All of these products are uniquely designed to integrate with the entire catalog of Anthill's ACOS™ Networked Products.
