Subject: Peptide synthesisers

Our group presently synthesises peptides by the Tea bag method which is
very cost effective but time between batches is an issue. If an urgent
one-off peptide is requested time is a problem.

Can anyone recommend an automated peptide synthesiser that satisfies the
following requirements:

Tboc or fmoc chemistry
single column (cheaper than multiple column)
100 mg resin scale
User supplied (prepared) reagents such as amino acids, activators etc
Flexibility to use coupling chemistries like in situ activation HBTU/DIEA

Any comments will be greatly received.

Thanks

Juan
