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.
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.
