Tony,

        I remember that in the past, some people was complaining about MAP setup of this equipment. Those ones that did not have this setup installed, were synthesizing peptides very well.

        And, taking advantage of your question, I would like to know if you would recommend me to buy Pioneer without MAP setup.
        I'm thinking about buying a new synthesizer but I intend to buy some that can synthesize a lot of peptides simultaneously. I'm not familiar with Pioneer, but as far as I know, it synthesize only 2 peptides simultaneously.
        
        Does someone knows a equipment that synthesize 20-40 peptides/time (or more) in about 20-40 mg (or more)? What about Advanced Chemtech 396 multiple synthesizer? How many peptides I can synthesize with it simultaneously and in what scale? Also, are there a new model of 9050?
        Thanks for any help,

Leo
