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.
High-temperature XRD system
06 April, 2009 | PANalytical
PANalytical has released a capillary extension that is compatible with the combined X’Pert Pro MPD/HTK 1200N High-Temperature Oven Chamber (Anton Paar) system, creating a ‘two-in-one’ reflection and transmission high-temperature XRD system.
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.
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).
Extensional rheology system
06 April, 2009 | Rheology Solutions Pty Ltd
The SER system is an accessory for the Haake Mars with CTC oven which transforms a rotational shear rheometer in an extensional rheometer for melts and semi-solids.
Cell particle processor
06 April, 2009 | Pathtech Pty Ltd
The Thermo Scientific Kingfisher Flex is a compact magnetic bead particle processing system for purification of DNA, RNA, proteins or cells. It can process 96 samples simultaneously and has a processing volume of 20 to 5000 µL.
Interlocking racks
06 April, 2009 | Mirella Research Pty Ltd
The Mirella Research interlocking 4-way tube racks are heavy-duty, autoclavable polypropylene racks that feature a system of tabs and slots that allow users to create as large a rack as needed by linking multiple racks.
Self-regenerating suppressor
06 April, 2009 | Dionex Pty Ltd
The SC-CSRS 300 Salt Converter Cation Self-Regenerating Suppressor is an eluent suppressor that can be used in place of a CSRS 300 or CAES cation suppressor in cases where increased sensitivity is required for the determination of ammonium and amines using conductivity detection. The design of the SC-CSRS 300 provides increased backpressure tolerance and maximum leak tolerance. The regenerant sweep-out design provides low noise and fast start-up.
Electroporation protocols
06 April, 2009 | Bio-Rad Laboratories Pty Ltd
Bio-Rad Laboratories has released 12 protocols for electroporation of human primary cells and primary cell lines.
Monochromator-based microplate reader
06 April, 2009 | Millennium Science Pty Ltd
The monochromator-based Synergy Mx multimode microplate reader provides reliable performance in fluorescence, luminescence and absorbance read modes.
Water analysis solutions
06 April, 2009 | Keysight Technologies Australia Pty Ltd
Agilent Technologies has launched a water analysis solutions website at www.agilent.com/chem/australianwater.
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.
