Interactive biological pathways database
06 April, 2009 | Merck Pty Limited
The Interactive Biological Pathways online tool includes 250 validated pathway maps, categorised by disease areas and cellular processes with direct links to technical and product-specific information.
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.
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).
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
Rapid ashing systems
06 April, 2009 | Ai Scientific Pty Ltd
The Phoenix line of microwave-powered muffle furnaces can be used to ash samples in minutes. Available in two configurations with a variety of options, the system offers a choice of either a high-temperature furnace, reaching 1200°C, or a high-capacity furnace, reach 1000°C.
Haematology analyser
06 April, 2009 | Beckman Coulter Australia
The UniCel DxH 800 Coulter cellular analysis system is designed for mid- to high-volume laboratories. It features high-definition signal processing and multi-angle light scatter, which is claimed to produce more data than traditional haematology analysers. Moving parts are minimised to increase instrument reliability, and the modular design and small footprint make it suitable for smaller laboratories.
Chromatography products catalogue
06 April, 2009 | Grace Discovery Sciences
Grace Davison Discovery Sciences has released its 2008 Chromatography Products Catalog.
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).
Laboratory filtration product guide
06 April, 2009 | Merck Pty Limited
Millipore has released a free laboratory filtration product guide, a single source for navigating Millipore’s offerings in sample preparation, water purification and environmental monitoring.
Water-in-solvents analyser
06 April, 2009 | B-R Controls Pty Ltd
The Applied Analytics Microspec (MCP-100) is an online, real-time, water-in-solvents analyser.
