NDT Qualifications
18 February, 2002 | NATANATA, the national laboratory accreditation agency, now requires formal qualifications for all non-destructive testing (NDT) operators.
Bonded Silica HPLC Columns
18 February, 2002 | Ai Scientific Pty LtdDionex has released a line of silica-based HPLC columns, the Acclaim 120 reversed-phase columns. The line comprises four highly characterised 120å C18 and C8 phases featuring very high surface coverage and low metal content.
Pathology Stains
18 February, 2002 | Pathtech Pty LtdAustralian Biostain specialises in the manufacture of preformulated stains solutions and fixatives for the pathology industry.
Balance Software
18 February, 2002 | VWR International Pty LtdBalanceTalk software is included with all purchases of Ohaus Analytical Plus, Voyager, Explorer, MB45, Ranger and Navigator balances through Crown Scientific.
Paperless Recorder
18 February, 2002 | Endress+Hauser Australia Pty LtdThe Eco-Graph paperless recorder features 3 or 6 channel universal analogue inputs with two alarm setpoints per channel, four control/event inputs and three freely configurable output relays as well as RS-232 and RS-485 communication protocols. Each universal input can accept 0-20, 4-20 mA, all standard voltages, RTDs, and thermocouples. Additionally, the three channel version can be ordered with a further three loop powering channels with Hart communication. The Eco-graph can also be configured to integrate the analogue inputs on each of the six channels to display and log totalised values.
Flu A & B Differential Test
18 February, 2002 | BDBD Directigen Flu A+B is a rapid in vitro assay for the direct and qualitative detection of influenza A and B viral antigens. A feature of this assay is the ability of Directigen Flu A+B to distinguish influenza A viral antigens from those of influenza B. During the testing procedure respiratory specimens are applied to two wells of ColorPAC test device, producing results in less than fifteen minutes.
Biomolecule Chromatography
28 January, 2002 | Bio-Strategy Pty LtdCIM fast monolithic chromatographic supports from BIA Separations use Convective Interaction Media (CIM) chromatography columns for reverse phase mode chromatography of biomolecules, and preparative separations of macromolecules.
Laboratory Ergonomics
28 January, 2002 | Pathtech Pty LtdStress related injuries are becoming of great concern to employees and companies alike. The manner in which a person uses a pipette can overextend muscles through repetitive actions, hence repetitive strain injury (RSI).
Balance Range
28 January, 2002 | Sartorius Australia Pty LtdThe Satorius Competence (CP) series of laboratory balances comprises 23 models: from a semimicro-balance with readability of 0.01 mg to a high-capacity balance with a capacity of 34 kg. The wide range of analytical and precision balances in this series offers a solution for every type of weighing task performed in the laboratory.
Water Recirculators
17 December, 2001 | Rheology Solutions Pty LtdThe TC line of water recirculators from Thermo Haake has a modern design and an extended specification range.
Dissolution Tester
17 December, 2001 | Varian Australia Pty LtdThe VanKel (VK) 7020 is part of the V-Series line of dissolution testers that offers higher levels of efficiency and automation. The VK 7020 can be easily integrated with other Varian instrumentation.
Isotope Ratio MS
17 December, 2001 | MicromassThe IsoPrime Stable Isotope Ratio Mass Spectrometer (SIRMS) platform is equipped with the PyrOH inlet that is capable of analysing solid and liquid samples. It opens up new possibilities for aqueous D/H ratio investigations where sample size is limited. This advance is made possible with ChromeHD technology, incorporating the MaxChrome reactor.
96-Well Plates with Binding Membranes
17 December, 2001 | Pall (Australia) Pty LtdThe AcroWell 96 Filter Plate with GHP Membrane is available in a chemically resistant natural polypropylene housing and is also available in opaque-white polypropylene housing for high throughput cell and bead-based radioactive and chemiluminescent assays. The GHP membrane (hydrophilic polypropylene) is the key to the plate's low background fluorescence.
Viscometer
17 December, 2001 | Ai Scientific Pty LtdThe Minivis II from Grabner features a ball detection principle with reflection sensors which extends its application to both clear and dark samples. The viscosity range is expanded from 0.2 to 1500 mPas/cSt across a temperature range of 0-100°C.
Digital Network Camera
17 December, 2001 | Coherent Scientific Pty LtdA digital camera with networking capability has joined Nikon's Digital Eclipse series. The DN100 enables the viewing of images by multiple users at distant locations over a network, while the images are being captured elsewhere. It is not necessary to store images before sending them to the other distant locations, as the images are viewed simultaneously and in real-time.
