High Q Technologies' FATHOM EPR Spectrometer
High Q Technologies (High Q) has announced the commercial availability and first sale of its FATHOM EPR Spectrometer. Designed to provide routine automated measurements of dipolar distance distributions, FATHOM supplies users with direct insights into protein conformations and dynamics. High Q has also announced the first commercial sale of the solution to a consortium of researchers led by Prof Reza Dastvan. Prof Dastvan studies neoplastic, cardiovascular, and neurodegenerative diseases at the Saint Louis University School of Medicine.
“We are very excited to deliver our first system to Prof Dastvan. We are confident that FATHOM will allow the consortium to accelerate their important human health research,” said Rudra Maharajh, Director of Product Management at High Q Technologies.
Prof Dastvan added, “We are thrilled to acquire a High Q Technologies FATHOM EPR Spectrometer, which represents a significant leap beyond the currently available instrumentation. My lab will be among the first to receive this state-of-the-art technology. We eagerly anticipate utilising this compact, fully automated spectrometer. In this era of Cryo-EM and AI, it is truly a game-changing advancement for the field of EPR/DEER spectroscopy.”
Key features of the FATHOM EPR Spectrometer:
- Provides automated calibration, measurement, and distance analysis of up to five samples with SQBA sample cartridges.
- Compared to other commercial EPR systems, FATHOM has over 10x lower sample volume required.
- Boasts automated sample loading and cryogen-free operation through its fully integrated system.
By adopting this solution, users can focus on the biochemistry of samples as the FATHOM spectrometer features a five-sample cartridge and automated loading, calibration, measurement, and analysis.
