Quantitative analysis of small metal fragments by LA-ICP-MS

08 February, 2003

Small, irregularly shaped samples can present difficulties for the established methods of metal analysis. Laser-ablation ICP-MS offers accuracy and precision independent of sample form

Evaporative light scattering detector

18 January, 2003 | Supplied by: Grace Discovery Sciences

Alltech ELSD 800 is an evaporative light scattering detector that can add universal HPLC detection to any LC system to replace or complement existing detectors. The ELSD's universal response gives a closer representation of sample mass than UV detectors, making quantification more accurate when standards are not available. It can be used in parallel with MS to obtain maximum structural and concentration information for each sample. Unlike RI detectors, the ELSD offers high sensitivity, equilibrates quickly and is gradient compatible.

17 January, 2003 | Supplied by: Gas Analysis Systems Australia Pty Ltd

The Scentograph Plus II portable gas chromatograph features dual detectors, dual sequential column, internal carrier gas and calibration tanks and capillary injection port. Accessories including the dual sampling purge and trap or stack gas sampler allow the instrument to produce laboratory quality results at on-site locations.

OxyBaby oxygen analyser

16 June, 2002 | Supplied by: Niche Gas Products

The OxyBaby handheld MAP oxygen analyser can be used to check residual oxygen levels at regular intervals. OxyBaby is handy, doesn't require power leads and is simple to use. It is portable and suitable for making quality checks of packed foods such as meats, sausages, fish, dairy products, bakery products, pasta, pizza and salads. Oxygen levels can be determined at any time by simply picking a pack off the line and inserting the needle. OxyBaby is designed so that it can be held in one hand with the packaged food product in the other.

Molecular opto-electronic switch

08 January, 2002

Using photosynthesis as their model, chemists at Washington University in St Louis, North Carolina State University, and the University of California, Riverside have tested molecular electronic switches that turn the flow of light energy on and off

Raman microspectroscopy and imaging of pharmaceuticals

08 December, 2001 | Supplied by: Warsash Scientific Pty Ltd

The application of Raman spectroscopy in the field of pharmaceuticals is showing immense potential. Previous progress has been hindered due to the high cost and poor user-friendliness of the old Raman technology
