Nanostructure analysis
06 April, 2009 | Metrohm Australia & New Zealand
The Anton Paar SAXSess is a small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) instrument that can be used to analyse nanostructures present in all different kinds of samples, from liquids (eg, colloids, protein solutions) to solids (eg, polymer films, nanocomposites). It adds precision to scientific investigation and reliability to industrial analysis.
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.
Materials science catalogue
06 April, 2009 | Merck
Aldrich has released its Materials Science catalogue. The free catalogue features more than 4000 products for research in alternative energy, organic electronics, metal and ceramic science, nanomaterials, micro/nanoelectronics and polymer science. Each chapter contains technical information and highlights from some of the recent advances in these fields.
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.
Handheld XRF
06 April, 2009 | Bruker Pty Ltd
The TracerturboSD handheld X-ray fluorescence (XRF) instrument uses a silicon drift detector (SDD) for improved speed, sensitivity and resolution. Bruker’s XFlash SDD, previously available only in high-performance laboratory XRF instruments, now offers speed and analytical specificity when integrated into the handheld TracerturboSD.
Instrument-grade acetylene
06 April, 2009 | Coregas Pty Ltd
Coregas has invested in a new $20 million liquid nitrogen plant extension at Port Kembla and a new acetylene facility (the nitrogen plant is already operational).
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.
Pocket-sized magnetic resonance imaging
06 April, 2009 | Magritek
Research scientists have developed small portable MRI scanners that perform their services in the field; for example, to examine ice cores.
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.
Microcentrifuge rack
06 April, 2009 | Interpath Services Pty Ltd
SSI has introduced the IsoFreeze MCT rack for microcentrifuge tubes to its range.
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.
Antibody range
06 April, 2009 | Leica Microsystems Pty Ltd
The Bond RTU Antibodies range has been expanded with the Phase 8 release, which includes the antibodies Bcl-2 and Mismatch Repair Protein.
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.
DG laboratory safety caps
06 April, 2009 | SCHOTT Australia Pty Ltd
The DG Safety Cap is designed specifically for laboratories that handle highly aggressive gas-forming liquids or solvents that need to be transferred safely and cleanly.
Disposable medical thermistor probes
06 April, 2009 | Thermal Component Technologies
The NTC thermistors from Measurement Specialties can be used in disposable medical temperature products to improve monitoring accuracy and clinical hygienic standards. The sensors offer sensitivity, durability and interchangeability in a variety of physical configurations.
