The Horiba Multi Water Quality Checker U-50 series portable water quality measuring system is capable of real-time, on-site measurement of up to 11 water-quality parameters, including pH and dissolved oxygen, in environmental waters such as rivers and lakes.
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.
CCD microscopy camera
06 April, 2009 | SciTech Pty Ltd
The Lumenera InfinityX-32 pixel shifting camera has been specifically designed for users in the clinical, life and material science fields. This camera offers 32 megapixel resolution, high sensitivity, 12-bit data and low noise levels.
Haematology analyser
06 April, 2009 | Beckman Coulter Australia
The UniCel DxH 800 Coulter cellular analysis system is designed for mid- to high-volume laboratories. It features high-definition signal processing and multi-angle light scatter, which is claimed to produce more data than traditional haematology analysers. Moving parts are minimised to increase instrument reliability, and the modular design and small footprint make it suitable for smaller laboratories.
