Piezoresponse force microscopy monograph
06 April, 2009 | The Innovation Group Pty Ltd
Asylum Research and Oak Ridge National Laboratory have released a 24-page monograph explaining the theory, functionality and applications of piezoresponse force microscopy (PFM).
Nanoscopic indenting
06 April, 2009 | The Innovation Group Pty Ltd
The Asylum Research MFP-3D NanoIndenter is an AFM-based indenter that does not use cantilevers as part of the indenting mechanism.
Antibody-based protein depletion column
06 April, 2009 | Merck
The Seppro IgY depletion platform is an antibody-based technology for processing plasma, serum and plant samples. It enables researchers to detect and analyse commonly obscured biomarkers in samples by removing highly abundant proteins.
Automated dual reduction index furnace
06 April, 2009 | Modutemp Pty Ltd
Modutemp has combined several previously separate apparatuses to create a comprehensive, automated dual reduction index furnace. This furnace provides qualitative analysis of iron ore samples for reducibility. Chemists will now have the ability to extrapolate precise weight variations as a function of temperature, when measuring the percentage of reduction (loss of oxygen) in a parcel of ore.
Tribology cell
06 April, 2009 | Rheology Solutions Pty Ltd
A measuring cell has been developed for testing the tribological behaviour of bearing materials with Haake Mars, RheoStress 6000 and other predecessor rheometers with a normal force sensor.
Spectrometer input beam accessory
06 April, 2009 | PerkinElmer (Australia) Pty Ltd
PerkinElmer has released an input beam accessory that expands the applications of the company’s Spectrum 400 and 100 Series spectrometers. The accessory allows the instruments to be used for analysis of external emitting samples, such as flames, hot or warm samples and gases from furnaces.
High vacuum pump
06 April, 2009 | Javac Pty Ltd
The Vector high vacuum pump line is available in a range of flow rates to cater to diverse applications such as ammonia or corrosive acidic vapours.
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.
Colour analysis cabinet
06 April, 2009 | IDM Instruments
The IDM Colour Check Cabinet is manufactured to assess colour changes under different light sources: fluorescent artificial daylight, incandescent source, fluorescent and UV black light.
Syringe filters
06 April, 2009 | Phenomenex Australia
Phenomenex has added regenerated cellulose (RC) syringe filters to its Phenex line. By removing particulates from the sample, the filters prevent build-up and blockage of chromatography columns and frits while minimising wear and tear on injection valves. Sample filtration can ultimately reduce system downtime and component replacement. The RC membranes deliver clean sample with no detectable leachates and they are compatible with HPLC, GC, IC and CE analysis.
Desktop electron microscope
06 April, 2009 | JEOL (Australasia) Pty Ltd
The JCM-5000 NeoScope desktop electron microscope provides a simple imaging procedure with auto focus, auto contrast/brightness and takes 3 minutes from sample loading to imaging.
Liquid chromatography solvents
06 April, 2009 | Merck Pty Ltd
Reproducible HPLC separations require solvents to have a high degree of UV transmittance, low particle count, low acidity and alkalinity and a low level of evaporation residue. Merck’s LiChrosolv solvents meet these requirements; they are produced from specially selected raw materials and undergo a number of purification steps before final packaging.
Density meters
06 April, 2009 | Metrohm Australia & New Zealand
Anton Paar Generation M density meters are ergonomically designed and easy to use.
Spectrometry analysis software
06 April, 2009 | B-R Controls Pty Ltd
The Applied Analytics Eclipse Process 10 online analyser software has improved control over the detection system compared to previous versions, allowing for instantaneous user interface response. Simultaneous analysis and calibration methods (ACM) can also be configured with version 10.
XRF petrochemical standards
06 April, 2009 | PANalytical
PANalytical has introduced a series of petrochemical standard sets for X-ray fluorescence (XRF) multiscopy that make reliable and accurate calibration a simple, convenient and cost-effective procedure. The standard sets are made to PANalytical specifications by VHG Labs. Sets are available for wear metals, lubrication oils, sulfur in diesel fuel and sulfur in oil.
