Clinical microscope
30 September, 2009 | Olympus Australia Pty Ltd
Olympus has introduced the CX21LED clinical microscope with built-in light emitting diode (LED) illumination. Offering consistent long-term performance for biological and medical applications, this imaging system can illuminate samples with a similar light intensity to that provided by halogen bulbs. Furthermore, the LED light source produces a more uniform, controllable and stable illumination for high-quality imaging.
Plug-in detection cartridges
30 September, 2009 | Beckman Coulter Australia
Beckman Coulter has introduced four detection cartridges for its modular plate reader, the Paradigm Detection Platform, that add new capabilities for widely used fluorescence and luminescence applications.
Transfection system
30 September, 2009 | Life Technologies
Invitrogen’s Neon Transfection System efficiently delivers nucleic acids into all mammalian cell types including primary, stem and difficult-to-transfect cells. The system is for scientists performing gene function experiments who want the flexibility of an open system which allows for customisation and optimisation of existing or user-defined protocols.
Buprenorphine in urine screening
30 September, 2009 | Beckman Coulter Australia
Beckman Coulter has expanded its drugs of abuse test menu to include a Buprenorphine Enzyme Immunoassay. The test provides fast screening for the qualitative and semi-quantitative determination of norbuprenorphine (buprenorphine metabolite) in human urine.
Microplate labelling system
30 September, 2009 | Agilent Technologies Australia Pty Ltd
Agilent Technologies has introduced a microplate labelling system for automated on-demand and barcode print-and-apply applications in life science laboratories.
NMR automation products
30 September, 2009 | Varian Australia Pty Ltd
Varian has launched a suite of products to enhance the flexibility and automated use of its 400-MR Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) system. The collection of tools comprises the OneNMR probe, a choice of two autosamplers and an easy-to-use, user-centric software package. Designed with enhanced sample throughput and streamlined data management in mind, it is claimed that each piece can improve laboratory workflows on its own.
Complex biopolymer characterisation
30 September, 2009 | ATA Scientific Pty Ltd
The Malvern Viscotek TDAmax gel permeation/size exclusion chromatography (GPC/SEC) system is an information-rich, time-efficient analytical solution for the comprehensive characterisation of complex food ingredients and additives based on polysaccharides.
Orbital mixing dry baths
22 September, 2009 | Edwards Group Pty Ltd
Torrey Pines Scientific has released the EchoTherm Models SC20XR and XT Digital and SC25XR and XT programmable orbital mixing chilling/heating dry baths with extended temperature range and extended power.
Clostridium perfringens media
22 September, 2009 | Micromedia Laboratories
The anaerobic microorganism Clostridium perfringens is well known as a cause of food poisoning, with cooked meats and gravy presenting some of the greatest risks. Heat-resistant spores can survive cooking processes, germinating when food is subsequently held at ambient temperature. Improper cooling and reheating may then result in multiplication of the bacteria to levels high enough to cause illness when ingested, with clinical symptoms resulting from the action of an endotoxin produced in the gut.
Cronobacter species media
22 September, 2009 | Oxoid Australia Pty Ltd
Oxoid has introduced two culture media for the fast and reliable identification of Cronobacter species (formerly known as Enterobacter sakazakii) from food and environmental samples.
