Noran System 7 is claimed to be the fastest complete EDS X-ray microanalysis system available on the market. The system produces accurate and dependable results in just a few seconds, accelerating the microanalysis capabilities of modern electron microscopy laboratories.
Drugs of abuse analysis platform
06 April, 2009 | Thermo Fisher Scientific
The EasyTox 2.5 GC/MS platform is suitable for routine drugs of abuse analysis. Incorporating the ToxLab Forms 2.5 software, the platform has been designed to reduce costs, increase sample throughput and improve productivity in forensic and clinical laboratories performing analysis of urine for signs of drugs of abuse.
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.
HPLC column chiller/heater
06 April, 2009 | Edwards Group Pty Ltd
The EchoTherm CO50 HPLC column chiller/heater has a temperature range from 4 to 100 °C readable and settable to 0.1 °C.
GC septa
06 April, 2009 | Merck
Supelco moulded Thermogreen LB-2 GC septa are available in two versions, without and with an injection hole.
HER2 assay kit
06 April, 2009 | Life Technologies
The FDA-approved Thermo Scientific Spot-Light HER2 CISH Kit is designed to allow users to perform an HER2 assay analogous to routine immunohistochemistry (IHC) that provides reliable gene status information and improves on the results obtained by fluorescent in situ hybridisation (FISH).
Fast liquid chromatograph
06 April, 2009 | Dionex Pty Ltd
Dionex has expanded its family of HPLCs with the UltiMate 3000 Rapid Separation LC (RSLC) system. RSLC is for ultra-fast high-resolution LC, as well as conventional HPLC applications.
Incubator CO2 analyser
06 April, 2009 | Geotech Systems Australia Pty Ltd
The Geotech G100 incubator CO2 analyser is an easy-to-use, handheld CO2 analyser accurate in the 0-20% range with a bright, clear display.
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.
Polar compound column
06 April, 2009 | Waters Australia Pty Ltd
Waters has an addition to its line of XBridge analytical columns. The XBridge HILIC Columns provide improved retention of very polar compounds that are otherwise difficult to retain by traditional reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography.
