Millipore Corporation Expands Range of Innovative Milli-Q(R) Systems

Billerica, Massachusetts—February 25, 2010—Millipore Corporation (NYSE: MIL), a leading provider of technologies, tools and services for the global life science industry, has introduced the Milli-Q Direct system, the latest addition to the company’s range of Milli-Q lab water purification systems.

The new system was designed to respond to the scientific community’s need for an economical, single-source solution producing pure and ultrapure water from tap. The Milli-Q Direct system provides optimum water production, with water quality that exceeds the requirements of the most demanding norms.

Milli-Q Direct users are assured of having convenient and versatile water delivery: water can be dispensed either manually or automatically, at low or high flow rates. Additionally, a range of Application Pak final filters makes it possible to adapt the Milli-Q Direct system to the user’s specific application(s) by adding a BioPak®, VOC-Pak™, EDS-Pak®, LC-Pak™ or Millipak® polisher. The system’s low footprint will also help lab managers save on space—the Milli-Q Direct can be bench- or wall-installed to ensure the best fit with their existing laboratory configurations.

Simplified procedures make maintenance for the system minimal, and an RFID tag ensures quick and easy traceability for consumables.
