Brushed DC motor package
06 April, 2009 | maxon motor Australia Pty Ltd
The RE 65 brushed DC motor package delivers 250 W and can cope with tough demands. The motor is particularly suitable for applications where high efficiency, high power density and a minimal operating noise are required.
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.

06 April, 2009 | Novozymes Biopharma Au Limited
Novozymes has developed a range of recombinant human albumins (rHAs) (LONG R3IGF-I, Albufuse, CellPrime rAlbumin AF-S) suitable for industrial cell culture and biomedical applications, such as protein, drug and vaccine formulation and medical device coating.
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).
Particulate monitoring
06 April, 2009 | Ecotech Pty Ltd
MetOne Instruments has announced that the BAM-1020 Beta-Attenuation Mass Monitor has been approved under Australian Standard AS/NZS 3580.9.11.2008 for the determination of particulate matter, PM10, using Beta attenuation.
DNA transfer system
06 April, 2009 | Life Technologies
The iBlot Transfer Device can be used for transferring DNA samples from agarose or polyacrylamide gels to nylon membranes in 7 minutes. It can be used to transfer protein from SDS-PAGE gels into nitrocellulose and PVDF membranes in 6 to 8 minutes, as compared with 90 minutes or more in conventional wet or semi-dry blotting.
Benchtop freeze dry system
06 April, 2009 | VWR International Pty Ltd
FreZone Freeze Dry Systems feature a compact benchtop design to fit on a laboratory cart or countertop. The units are suitable for personal use by one researcher. The LCD system set-up and operating parameters may be user-configured to display vacuum in mBar, Pa or Torr and temperature in °F or °C. It also displays total number of hours of refrigeration operation and the total number of hours of vacuum pump operation — including the last time they were both serviced.
Texture analyser
06 April, 2009 | SI Instruments
The TMS-Pro System provides precise, objective and repeatable measurements of the texture of food products.
Aflatoxin test kits
06 April, 2009 | Graintec Pty Ltd
Graintec supplies rapid aflatoxin test kits for pet food and food manufacturers.
Flat motors
06 April, 2009 | maxon motor Australia Pty Ltd
The maxon motor range of brushless DC motors with integrated electronics features established drives EC 20 flat, EC 32 flat and EC 45 flat, but now they have in-built speed controllers, yet are almost the same size. The motors available as standard are the 2- and 5-wire versions, with an operating range of 2-50 W. The drives are suitable for use where there is minimal installation space, when long service life and constant speed are required at the same time as simple control operations.
Dunkermotoren BG75 brushless DC motors
06 April, 2009 | M Rutty & Co Pty Ltd
Dunkermotoren BG75 DC motors feature output powers up to 500 W and torques up to 5 Nm. They have sufficient reserves to take on numerous drive tasks in automation. Combined with components selected from a comprehensive package of equipment, the motors can become fully fledged, cost-effective and compact servo drives.
Tension and compression test stand
06 April, 2009 | SI Instruments
The Mecmesin MultiTest-d test stands are available in 1 and 2.5 kN capacities. The stands work in conjunction with a Mecmesin digital force gauge and form an entry-level motorised test system for users who wish to evaluate quality control parameters of their products in tension and compression.
