Algae monitoring
10 August, 2009 | Bestech Australia Pty Ltd
The bbe Modaenke AlgaeTorch allows rapid measurement of toxic algae in water used for drinking and recreation purposes. The handheld device allows a measurement of total algae and blue-green algae, the most common source of toxic blooms. There is a display on the instrument so users can instantly assess whether there is a health risk in water to be used for drinking, swilling, skiing etc, rather than needing to wait for laboratory test results.
Human protein PCR assay
10 August, 2009 | Life Technologies
Applied Biosystems has introduced a line of TaqMan real-time PCR assays that enable researchers to rapidly detect and quantify proteins in human cell samples. The TaqMan Protein Expression Assays enable researchers to correlate relative levels of specific proteins with cell functions and behaviours, such as different disease conditions, or states of pluripotency or differentiation in stem cells.
Laboratory and field balances
10 August, 2009 | Adam Equipment (SE ASIA) Pty Ltd
The PGL line of balances combines the solid construction and fundamental features of a high-precision, top-loading balance with the versatility of a portable.

Telstar offers a wide range of Class II Microbiological Safety Cabinets to suit all configurations.
Research-only immunosuppressant assay
10 August, 2009 | Waters Australia Pty Ltd
Waters has expanded its portfolio of products for clinical and research laboratories including a research use only (RUO) kit for quantitative measurement of Tacrolimus, Sirolimus, Everolimus, and Cyclosporin A.
Emergency eyewash station
10 August, 2009 | Sieper & Co Pty Ltd
Kartell’s emergency eyewash station Art. 2386 is moulded in high-impact polystyrene. The directions are clearly printed on the support rack and the bottle can be filled with distilled water or other medicated liquid for ophthalmic use.
Biomedical engineering teaching equipment
10 August, 2009 | Emona Instruments Pty Ltd
Emona Instruments has been appointed as the Australian distributor for the CleveLabs range of biomedical engineering teaching systems.
PCR cycler
10 August, 2009 | QIAGEN Pty Ltd
The versatile Rotor-Gene Q real-time PCR cycler features a centrifugal rotary design. Each tube spins in a chamber of moving air, keeping all samples at precisely the same temperature during rapid thermal cycling. Detection is similarly uniform.
Micro rheology instrument
10 August, 2009 | Scientific Solutions Pty Ltd
The Formulaction Rheolaser is a micro rheology instrument that can be used to measure the rheological properties of materials under zero shear as it measures those properties without any additional applied energy.
ROS/RNS detection kit
10 August, 2009 | Sapphire Bioscience
Enzo Life Sciences’ ROS/RNS Detection Kit is designed to directly monitor real-time reactive oxygen and/or nitrogen species (ROS/RNS) production in live cells using fluorescence microscopy. The kit includes three fluorescent dye reagents: nitric oxide detection reagent (red fluorescent), oxidative stress detection reagent (green fluorescent) for total ROS detection, and superoxide detection reagent (orange fluorescent).
Environmental Listeria testing
10 August, 2009 | Intermed
An effective Listeria monitoring program can be inhibited by the cost and complexity of the available tests, or by the need to send samples out to an external laboratory. One way to help manage the costs and provide faster feedback is to use an easy, low-cost test that can be used in house.
FTIR spectrometer
10 August, 2009 | PerkinElmer (Australia) Pty Ltd
The Spectrum 100S infrared (FTIR) spectrometer offers increased productivity and enhanced sensitivity for the analysis of even difficult samples.
High-density thermocouple module for data acquisition
10 August, 2009 | National Instruments Aust Pty Ltd
The National Instruments NI 9213 adds high-density thermocouple measurements to the NI C Series platform. Using the NI 9213, users can create a compact, modular data acquisition system to collect data from up to 16 independent thermocouples. The NI 9213 takes up less space than standard instrumentation in a measurement system and provides more channels for measurement with a sampling rate of 75 samples/s/channel, making the device both compact and efficient for high-channel systems.
