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.
Hanging cell culture inserts
06 April, 2009 | Merck Pty Limited
Hanging Millicell cell culture inserts are available pre-loaded into 24-well receiver trays. The pre-loaded assembly saves time and labour across a range of experimental protocols.
Spectrometer input beam accessory
06 April, 2009 | PerkinElmer (Australia) Pty Ltd
PerkinElmer has released an input beam accessory that expands the applications of the company’s Spectrum 400 and 100 Series spectrometers. The accessory allows the instruments to be used for analysis of external emitting samples, such as flames, hot or warm samples and gases from furnaces.
Single-wall carbon nanotubes

SWeNT’s single-wall carbon nanotubes consist of a hollow cylinder of carbon with a diameter of approximately 1 nm.
Texture analyser
06 April, 2009 | SI Instruments
The TMS-Pro System provides precise, objective and repeatable measurements of the texture of food products.
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.
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.
Melamine test kits
06 April, 2009 | Graintec Pty Ltd
The Romer Labs AgraQuant ELISA test kit has been designed to meet the updated regulatory limits for melamine in food products.
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.
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.
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.
Tissue dissociation guide
06 April, 2009 | Scimar
Worthington Biochemical Corp has updated its Tissue Dissociation Guide, which is an online guide available to assist researchers.
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.
Desktop electron microscope
06 April, 2009 | JEOL (Australasia) Pty Ltd
The JCM-5000 NeoScope desktop electron microscope provides a simple imaging procedure with auto focus, auto contrast/brightness and takes 3 minutes from sample loading to imaging.
Fast liquid chromatograph
06 April, 2009 | Dionex Pty Ltd
Dionex has expanded its family of HPLCs with the UltiMate 3000 Rapid Separation LC (RSLC) system. RSLC is for ultra-fast high-resolution LC, as well as conventional HPLC applications.
