Acute phase assays
08 April, 2009 | Bio-Rad Laboratories Pty Ltd
Bio-Plex Pro human acute phase assays can deliver accurate and reproducible measurements of nine commonly studied acute phase markers: a-2-Macroglobulin, CRP, ferritin, fibrinogen, haptoglobin, procalcitonin, SAA, serum amyloid P (SAP) and tissue plasminogen activator. A snapshot of panel performance is demonstrated by representative parallelism and linearity of sample dilution in normal human serum and plasma.
Heating and chilling catalogue
08 April, 2009 | Edwards Group Pty Ltd
The 2008 catalogue of the Torrey Pines Scientific range of chilling and heating laboratory instruments is now available.
Adhesion slides
08 April, 2009 | Sapphire Bioscience
ImmunoSelect Adhesion Slides by Squarix Biotechnology feature a surface that immobilises cells and tissue sections and maintains a high retention of cell and tissue morphology. This helps to reduce the amount of cellular material and reagents required.
Live cell nano-microscopy
08 April, 2009 | SciTech Pty Ltd
Designed to support research in nanotechnology and infectious diseases, the CytoViva Microscope System employs a darkfield-based optical illumination technology that improves contrast and signal-to-noise ratio. This transmitted-light illumination system enables scientists to observe a wide range of nano-materials quickly and easily, without special preparation. Live cells and pathogens can also be viewed at a level of detail not possible with traditional optical imaging techniques such as phase contrast or DIC.
Portable Raman system
08 April, 2009 | PerkinElmer (Australia) Pty Ltd
The portable Raman IdentiCheck spectrometer is designed to deliver unambiguous, high-quality data for use in markets requiring fast on-site testing, such as forensics, homeland security, pharmaceutical and health care testing, mining and on-site conservation analysis. The device combines the high spectral performance of a laboratory-based instrument with the convenience of a portable, handheld trigger probe system.
Inverted materials microscope
08 April, 2009 | Coherent Scientific Pty Ltd
Nikon Instruments has introduced the Eclipse MA200, an inverted materials microscope that uses integrated intelligence to automatically combine captured images with data on the applied observation settings for more comprehensive documentation. Its design allows easy access to the sample on the stage and nosepiece, while minimising the footprint size.
Nanoflow HPLC system
08 April, 2009 | Shimadzu Scientific Instruments (Oceania) Pty Ltd
The Prominence nano HPLC system includes a flow line switching valve for nano-level flow control and a solvent delivery unit that demonstrates high flow rate accuracy at nano-level flows.
Chromagenic culture media
08 April, 2009 | bioMerieux Australia
bioMérieux is enhancing its line of food safety solutions with the launch of two chromogenic culture media, chromID Sakazakii and chromID Vibrio.
Automated cameras
08 April, 2009 | Atlantek Vision Pty Ltd
Leutron Vision’s PicSight gigabit-ethernet and modular cameras are fitted with a fully integrated socket enabling motorised lenses with C or CS mountings to be connected directly to the system, allowing them to automatically zoom, focus and adapt an image to different object sizes.
OEM liquid handling robot
08 April, 2009 | Ai Scientific Pty Ltd
Tecan has developed the Cavro Omni Robot, a general-purpose OEM liquid handling robot for a wide range of applications within clinical diagnostic, life sciences and analytical chemistry.
Next-generation sequencing service
08 April, 2009 | Australian Genome Research Facility Ltd
Foreshadowing the changes in the next-generation sequencing market, AGRF is expanding its current range of next-generation sequencing services via the acquisition of the illumina Genome Analyser II (GA II, utilising Solexa technology). The GA II service, combined with the established Roche GS FLX (454) service, will enable the genomics research community to access a suite of scalable next-generation sequencing services spanning both long and short read lengths.
Gas sample cylinder
08 April, 2009 | Duff & Macintosh
Sentry’s sample cylinder allows gas samples to be collected at pressure, assuring that the sample constituents that can change state with pressure reduction are not lost during sample collection. An example of this type of sample would be LPG or other two-phase fluids that could flash off sample constituents if the pressure was reduced.
Miniature motor
08 April, 2009 | ERNTEC Pty Ltd
The ADM 0620 is a miniature two-phase stepper motor with a 6 mm outer diameter, is 9.3 mm long, weighs 1.4 g and provides a high power-to-volume ratio.
Human isotyping assay
08 April, 2009 | Bio-Rad Laboratories Pty Ltd
The Bio-Plex Pro human isotyping panel allows detection of IgG1, IgG2, IgG3, IgG4, IgA, IgE and IgM, in a single multiplex assay.
Reagent platforms
08 April, 2009 | PerkinElmer (Australia) Pty Ltd
The bead-based technology of the AlphaScreen and AlphaLISA reagent platforms makes them suitable for measuring even large and complex molecules.
