Pure water for clinical analyser laboratories
09 January, 2008 | Thermo Fisher Scientific
Elga Medica pure water systems can provide direct feed to clinical chemistry and immunology analysers used in pathology laboratories. The single box solutions have been purpose-built to power total pure water requirements for clinical pathology laboratories. The units are designed to supply either a single analyser or the total laboratory water requirement by feeding multiple analysers including dispense taps.
Protein association and aggregation system
09 January, 2008 | Shimadzu Scientific Instruments (Oceania) Pty Ltd
Wyatt Technology's Calypso automated protein association and aggregation system enables the rapid, quantitative, nondestructive characterisation of protein-protein interactions in native solution using composition-gradient multi-angle light scattering (CG-MALS).
Digesters
09 January, 2008 | Rowe Scientific Pty Ltd
The mineralisation units of the DK series digesters are designed for digesting solid and liquid samples in order to determine the nitrogen/protein content according to the Kjeldhal method. Velp digesters are made up of an aluminium heating block which offers good thermal homogeneity, with a maximum working temperature of 450°C. The block's temperature is controlled by dedicated microprocessor electronics. The temperature probe does not require calibration since the electronics performs self-calibration every time the device is turned on. All of this makes it possible to obtain high test precision and repeatability.
Rapid test for Campylobacter species
09 January, 2008 | Oxoid Australia Pty Ltd
Oxoid has introduced a rapid colorimetric test for the differentiation of Campylobacter, Helicobacter and Arcobacter species from other bacteria growing on solid culture media. OBIS campy is a simple two-test procedure that determines both Gram status and the presence or absence of L-alanyl aminopeptidase (L-ALA) activity within 2 mins.
DNA sequencing platform
09 January, 2008 | Applied Biosystems Pty Ltd
The Solid System DNA sequencing platform is claimed to enable new ways of performing genetic analysis applications.
Signal isolator
09 January, 2008 | Innovec Controls Pty Ltd
The ISCX1 is a signal isolator that accepts a 4-20 mA signal with an input impedance of 50W or 0-10 VDC with an input impedance of 1 mW and provides an isolated output signal of 4-20 mA or 0-10 VDC with an accuracy of 0.1%.
Deuterium lamp
09 January, 2008 | Heraeus Amba Australia Pty Ltd
Deuterium lamps, hollow cathode lamps and other light sources from Heraeus are engineered for long lifetime, high precision and stability.
Pressure- and vacuum-resistant glassware
09 January, 2008 | SCHOTT Australia Pty Ltd
The Schott Duran Pressure Plus laboratory glass bottle permits safe working under vacuum and pressure and provides increased safety to technicians and security to contents. The pressure and vacuum resistance is from -1 to +1.5 bar.
Turbulent flow chromatography columns
06 December, 2007 | Thermo Fisher Scientific
Thermo Fisher Scientific has introduced a line of silica-based TurboFlow columns designed exclusively for use with Thermo Scientific Transcend Systems. The columns provide scientists in clinical research and pharmaceutical analysis the capability to integrate online sample preparation with LC-MS analysis. The TurboFlow XL columns enable researchers to reduce sample preparation time and minimise ion suppression, while providing faster analysis and more confident data.
Food contaminant testing method
06 December, 2007 | Applied Biosystems Pty Ltd
Applied Biosystems and its joint venture partner, Sciex, have announced the release of a food testing method intended to help public health laboratories and food manufacturers improve food safety.
Optical sectioning in real time
06 December, 2007 | ZEISS Group
Conventional wide field fluorescent imaging is hindered by the detection of out of focus light above and below the specimen plane being examined. This has limited traditional fluorescent microscopes to a Z-direction resolution of approximately 1 µm. This limitation has spurred the adoption of the laser scanning microscope (LSM) into examination of subcellular biology with the capability of Z-resolutions below 0.5 µm.
Liquid GC autosampler
06 December, 2007 | ALPE Pty Ltd
The HT300APlus is a liquid GC autosampler that also supports automated MEPS (micro extraction by packed sorbent).
