CLEAVAGE AND DEPROTECTION INTO A SINGLE STEP
At the completion of the synthesis process, the oligos have to be removed from the solid support and
subsequently deprotected. These manual steps have a direct impact on the final yield, as well as on the
productivity and on the lab’s workflow, due to the fact that their completion takes several hours. These steps
are usually carried out by immersing the plates into ammonia solutions or other reagents, thus requiring
an evaporation step and, therefore, creating unpleasant lab conditions.
wavePREP offers a new approach to the post-synthesis process by providing cleavage and deprotection of oligos within a single step and by removing evaporation.
In wavePREP, liquid reagents turn into gas, cleaving and deprotecting oligos simultaneously. Reaction conditions are accurately controlled to ensure complete process control and to maximize the yield. Once the procedure has finished, oligonucleotides can be directly desalted, for example with acetonitrile, and eluted from the solid support with the appropriate buffer solution without further steps.

Principle of operation
WavePREP offers a single-step approach to cleavage and deprotection, eliminating the need for evaporation. The reaction occurs by heating the cleavage and deprotection reagents using microwave technology, causing its transition to the gas phase. Precise control over the temperature and pressure of both the vapor and liquid phases ensures optimal yield and safe operation. Consequently, at the end of the process, there is no requirement for evaporation, and the oligonucleotides can be directly eluted for following work-up. This streamlined operation saves time, improves efficiency and enhances the overall workflow
