Asylum Research Cypher AFM and MFP-3D-BIO AFM
06 October, 2010 | Supplied by: The Innovation Group Pty Ltd
Asylum Research has delivered a dual system order for a Cypher AFM and an MFP-3D-BIO AFM to the University of Melbourne’s Department of Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering. Dr Raymond Dagastine’s group will use the AFMs to develop nanoscale experiments and theories to measure and predict interactions, collisions and coalescence between droplets and bubbles that underpin innovative applications of foams and emulsions and other soft matter materials. The approach provides a ‘front seat’ view of how drops or bubbles collide in solution, and how the physical mechanisms are dependent on the types of molecules coating their interfaces.

Koehler automated colorimeter
06 August, 2010 | Supplied by: Crea Laboratory Technologies Pty Ltd
The Koehler Automated Colorimeter can carry out an exact colorimetric evaluation in conformity with several ISO/ASTM standards with just a single measurement and display the result in terms of traditional colour systems such as Iodine, Hazen/APHA or Gardner colour numbers as well as in modern CIE-L*a*b* colour values. Besides the over 20 colour indexes, transmittance and absorbance can be measured at individual wavelengths so that the colorimeter can be used universally for analytical purposes in the laboratory.
