Time-of-flight LC/MS
06 April, 2009 | Keysight Technologies Australia Pty Ltd
The 6230 Accurate-Mass time-of-flight (TOF) LC/MS system can detect and identify compounds in amounts smaller than 2 pg, making it suitable for food safety, toxicology and other measurements where minute amounts of compounds must be identified.
Automated confocal microscope
06 April, 2009 | Olympus Australia Pty Ltd
The FV10i automated confocal microscope is suitable for users unfamiliar with conventional confocal microscopy, featuring an intuitive, easy-to-use graphical user interface.
Benchtop freeze dry system
06 April, 2009 | VWR International Pty Ltd
FreZone Freeze Dry Systems feature a compact benchtop design to fit on a laboratory cart or countertop. The units are suitable for personal use by one researcher. The LCD system set-up and operating parameters may be user-configured to display vacuum in mBar, Pa or Torr and temperature in °F or °C. It also displays total number of hours of refrigeration operation and the total number of hours of vacuum pump operation — including the last time they were both serviced.
Melamine food safety test method
06 April, 2009 | Bruker Pty Ltd
A 5-minute LC-MS/MS analysis method has been developed for the detection and quantification of melamine and cyanuric acid (CA) by food safety laboratories.
Colorimetric monitors

Microwave reaction system
06 April, 2009 | Ai Scientific Pty Ltd
Up to 40 high-pressure vessels per run can be processed with the MarsXpress High-Throughput Microwave Reaction System from CEM. MarsXpress offers intelligent and adaptive continuous temperature and pressure feedback control for all vessels all the time without the need for temperature and pressure connections.
Self-regenerating suppressor
06 April, 2009 | Dionex Pty Ltd
The SC-CSRS 300 Salt Converter Cation Self-Regenerating Suppressor is an eluent suppressor that can be used in place of a CSRS 300 or CAES cation suppressor in cases where increased sensitivity is required for the determination of ammonium and amines using conductivity detection. The design of the SC-CSRS 300 provides increased backpressure tolerance and maximum leak tolerance. The regenerant sweep-out design provides low noise and fast start-up.
Cell particle processor
06 April, 2009 | Pathtech Pty Ltd
The Thermo Scientific Kingfisher Flex is a compact magnetic bead particle processing system for purification of DNA, RNA, proteins or cells. It can process 96 samples simultaneously and has a processing volume of 20 to 5000 µL.
Single-use laboratory plastics
06 April, 2009 | VWR International Pty Ltd
Formerly part of Barloworld Scientific, Sterilin is a newly formed independent business, specialising in the manufacture of single-use laboratory plastics. Having adopted the name of its market leading brand Sterilin, this formed company will comprise four established product brands: Sterilin single-use plastics; Iwaki tissue culture Products; Sterilin Silicone Devices (formerly Esco Silicone Rubber); and Sterilin Packaging Products (formerly Azion Packaging).
Monochromator-based microplate reader
06 April, 2009 | Millennium Science Pty Ltd
The monochromator-based Synergy Mx multimode microplate reader provides reliable performance in fluorescence, luminescence and absorbance read modes.
Tissue dissociation guide
06 April, 2009 | Scimar
Worthington Biochemical Corp has updated its Tissue Dissociation Guide, which is an online guide available to assist researchers.
Nickel assay by X-ray spectrography
06 April, 2009 | XRF Scientific
A Thulium-based, higher precision X-ray analysis technique is suitable for assaying nickel in ore. Currently, production criteria is controlled using quantitative X-ray analysis with a chemical assay reference method (Wet Chemical DMG), which tests the ultimate purity of the nickel ore or concentrate. The current X-ray technique, however, has proven to have accuracy limitations resulting in the loss of potential revenue that can be realised from production. Moreover, the chemical DMG method is relatively expensive, complex and time consuming with the chemicals being dangerous to operators.
Plug-and-play titration sensors
06 April, 2009 | Mettler-Toledo Ltd
Mettler Toledo has released a range of plug-and-play titration sensors, designed for precise measurement of mineral oils and derived products.
Flat motors
06 April, 2009 | maxon motor Australia Pty Ltd
The maxon motor range of brushless DC motors with integrated electronics features established drives EC 20 flat, EC 32 flat and EC 45 flat, but now they have in-built speed controllers, yet are almost the same size. The motors available as standard are the 2- and 5-wire versions, with an operating range of 2-50 W. The drives are suitable for use where there is minimal installation space, when long service life and constant speed are required at the same time as simple control operations.
