NGC 10 Medium-Pressure Chromatography Systems
The preconfigured NGC 10 Chromatography Systems meet a range of throughput and application needs. All configurations share a common software platform and can be easily upgraded.
Overview
The family of NGC Medium-Pressure Chromatography Systems fit your throughput requirements when purifying biomolecules at laboratory-scale. Each system is composed of interchangeable valves and pumps that confer different system capabilities.
The preconfigured NGC Liquid Chromatography Systems listed below are designed with increasing automation and throughput to serve a wide range of laboratory needs:
- NGC Quest 10 Plus Systems (7880003) — for separating biomolecules at high resolution using accurate gradients
- NGC Scout 10 Plus Systems (7880007) — for medium throughput applications requiring rapid scouting of protein purification conditions with automated gradients and buffer preparation
- NGC Discover 10 (7880009) and NGC Discover 10 Pro Systems (7880011) — for higher throughput applications with rapid, robust automation and a need for method development
For an overview of the features and capabilities of the four NGC Chromatography Systems, view the NGC 10 System comparison chart and watch the NGC System Tour.

Multidimensional (Multi-D) Chromatography with NGC Systems
Multi-D chromatography is a feature of the NGC Systems that automates multistep purifications using complementary strategies to isolate your product of interest at high yields and purity levels run after run.
Compared to traditional sequential chromatography workflows, which require running single columns sequentially, Multi-D sets up an automated workflow and consolidates day-long methods to hour-long protocols without requiring the intervention of users, allowing them to save valuable time.
