APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR THE MULTIPLE SYNTHESIS OF ORGANIC COMPOUNDS IN POLYMER SUPPORT.

摘要

THE INVENTION REFERS TO A SOLID PHASE SYNTHESIS SYSTEM USING A TOTALLY AUTOMATED ROBOT (20) THAT OPERATES WITH A NEW TIME PROTOCOL EXECUTED BY A COMPUTER (25) TO PERFORM EFFICIENTLY MULTIPLE SYNTHETIC TASKS. THE TOTALLY AUTOMATED ROBOT (20) IS MOVED THROUGH A TRACK (35) AND IS EQUIPPED WITH AN ARM WITH CLAMPS (30) THAT CAN TAKE, POSITION AND OPERATE SYRINGES (40, 60) THAT MAY CONTAIN SOLID AND REACTIVE SUPPORTS OF AMINO ACIDS. THE NEW TIME PROTOCOL IS PERFORMED FOLLOWING A FEW STEPS IN THE SYNTHESIS CYCLES FOR DIFFERENT COMPOUNDS, SUCH AS PEPTIDES, ON A SEQUENTIAL BASE.
