Laboratory labelling solutions
07 July, 2006 | Brady Australia Pty Ltd
Brady Australia Pty Ltd has simple, effective and affordable labelling solutions for identifying and tracking laboratory samples. These products meet four current labelling needs associated with sample container tracking: sizing, legibility, durability and increased information requirements. These challenges are met by barcoding the labels, allowing researchers to include more information, labels that "match" existing vial, slide and well plate sizes, labels that are always legible, durable under extreme conditions including freezer storage, liquid nitrogen, autoclave and hot water baths and are resistant to solvents.

Live cell manipulator
07 July, 2006 | Applied Nano Technologies
Laser tweezers are non-contact tools that use light to trap, move and fuse particles, cells or organisms. An infrared laser beam is focused through an objective lens to create an intense optical radiation field. The resulting photon pressure at the surface of the particle or cell enables the operator to move the cells at will, sorting, separating or collecting the cells as required. By combining the system with an ultraviolet laser, cells can be cut free of surrounding structures enabling micro dissection. Where two cells have been trapped by the laser tweezers, the ultraviolet laser can be used to cut the cell membranes allowing the cells to fuse together. A similar process enables operators to insert particles into the cell, for example fluorescent beads, or to perform targeted transfection into the cells of DNA or proteins.
Amino acid analyser
07 July, 2006 | Scientifix Pty Ltd
The Hitachi L8900 series dedicated amino acid analyser boasts refinements for fast analysis with high detection limits. Improvements include new hardware, a more efficient pump and a re-engineered direct injection auto sampler, all complemented by the powerful and user-friendly EZChrom chromatography data system.
Plates for robotic handling
07 July, 2006 | In Vitro Technologies Pty Ltd
The Nunc 1536-Well High Base Plates are designed for high throughput screening laboratories.
