ICP sample introduction accessory
06 April, 2009 | Glass Expansion Pty Ltd
The Assist is an automated standalone accessory that is synchronised with the spectrometer and autosampler of an ICP-OES or ICP-MS instrument system. It consists of programmable dual syringe drives coordinated with an integrated valve system. The Assist delivers high levels of accuracy, stability and sample throughput by controlling the delivery of both sample and internal standard, eliminating the inaccuracies and pulsations caused by peristaltic pumps.
Measuring sulfur-containing compounds
06 April, 2009 | Thermo Fisher Scientific
ESA Biosciences has developed a first stable, sensitive and robust analytical system that enables routine measurement of thiols, thioethers, disulfides and other sulfur-containing compounds.
Camsizer particle size analyser
06 April, 2009 | Metrohm Australia & New Zealand
The Camsizer is a compact laboratory instrument for simultaneous measurement of particle size distribution and particle shape of powders and granules.
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.
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.
Fire suppression systems
06 April, 2009 | Fire Fighting Technologies International Pty Ltd
Fogtec water mist firefighting systems are certified by international fire research institutes such as Factory Mutual. The systems have been tested in accordance with NFPA 750 and IMO standards.
Pressure controller/calibrator
06 April, 2009 | Fluke Australia Pty Ltd
DHI’s PPC4 pressure controller/calibrator with a colour graphic display and point-and-click navigation delivers performance, versatility and long-term reliability.
DNA transfer system
06 April, 2009 | Life Technologies
The iBlot Transfer Device can be used for transferring DNA samples from agarose or polyacrylamide gels to nylon membranes in 7 minutes. It can be used to transfer protein from SDS-PAGE gels into nitrocellulose and PVDF membranes in 6 to 8 minutes, as compared with 90 minutes or more in conventional wet or semi-dry blotting.
