USB digital manometer
06 April, 2009 | Practical Control Solutions
The GDUSB1000 digital manometer plugs directly into the USB port of a PC and displays and records pressure measurements.
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.
Chromatography products catalogue
06 April, 2009 | Grace Discovery Sciences
Grace Davison Discovery Sciences has released its 2008 Chromatography Products Catalog.
Flash chromatography
06 April, 2009 | Grace Discovery Sciences
The Reveleris flash chromatography system has been designed to save time and minimise guesswork in purifications.
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.
Bioimaging workstation
06 April, 2009 | Olympus Australia Pty Ltd
The FSX 100 workstation allows for the acquisition of transmitted light, phase or fluorescence images, and features auto exposure and focusing for simple operation.
Thermogravimetric analyser
06 April, 2009 | Leco Australia Pty Ltd
The TGA701 thermogravimetric analyser from LECO determines weight loss as a function of temperature in a controlled environment.
Piezoresponse force microscopy monograph
06 April, 2009 | The Innovation Group Pty Ltd
Asylum Research and Oak Ridge National Laboratory have released a 24-page monograph explaining the theory, functionality and applications of piezoresponse force microscopy (PFM).
Thermo Haake EZ Cool 80 circulator
06 April, 2009 | Rheology Solutions Pty Ltd
The Thermo Haake EZ Cool 80 circulator is a versatile option for laboratory cooling and heating needs from -10 to +80°C. Its bathless design minimises the evaporation of temperature fluid during daily use. The stainless steel circulator is both quiet and robust, making it suitable for laboratory use.
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).
Chemisorption analyser
06 April, 2009 | Particle & Surface Sciences Pty Ltd
The Micromeritics AutoChem 2920 automated catalyst characterisation system is a fully automated chemisorption analyser that enables a wide array of studies of chemical adsorption and temperature-programmed reactions. It can acquire information about the physical properties of the catalyst, catalyst support or other materials, and can determine catalytic properties such as percentage of metal dispersion, active metal surface area, acid strength, surface acidity, distribution of strength of active sites, BET surface area and more.
Antibody range
06 April, 2009 | Leica Microsystems Pty Ltd
The Bond RTU Antibodies range has been expanded with the Phase 8 release, which includes the antibodies Bcl-2 and Mismatch Repair Protein.
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.
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.
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.
