Imaging Solution
18 August, 2003 | Thomson Scientific Instruments Pty Ltd
LVEM5 manufactured by Delong America is a novel solution for imaging in life sciences and macromolecular chemistry. The conception of the instrument offers imaging in TEM, STEM, SEM (BSE) or diffractionmodes.
Dialysis for IC
18 August, 2003 | Metrohm Australia & New Zealand
Samples for ion chromatography need to be clear, clinically pure, with no bacteria or particles. Apart from the ions to be determined, however, most samples still contain large amounts of aggressive substances that make an analysis difficult. With 'MISP', the Metrohom inline sample preparation system, Metrohm now provides a range of possibilities and methods that allow users to automate sample preparation and make it considerably more efficient than was previously possible.
Peptide/protein biomarker tools
18 August, 2003 | Bruker Pty Ltd
Automated sample preparation is a key component of any biomarker discovery system. Bruker Daltonics is introducing a magnetic bead based system for the selective capture and enrichment of certain classes of peptides and proteins directly from serum, or from other biological samples.
Ion trap mass spectrometer
18 August, 2003 | Keysight Technologies Australia Pty Ltd
Agilent Technologies has introduced an ion trap mass spectrometer that is claimed to be approximately 10 times more sensitive than its predecessor. The increased sensitivity, resolution and scan speed of the Agilent 1100 Series LC/MSD Trap XCT promise improved performance for many applications such as the identification and characterisation of biologically significant, low-abundance proteins for disease research.
Microplate reagent dispenser
18 August, 2003 | VWR International Pty Ltd
The µFill Microplate Reagent Dispenser offers an economical, compact and reliable alternative to existing microplate dispensers. Accurate and precise dispensing are guaranteed without recalibration, cassette replacement, and maintenance commonly associated with other dispensers. An autoclavable model is also available for those applications requiring a sterile fluid bath.
Microscopy platform
18 August, 2003 | Leica Microsystems Pty Ltd
Leica Microsystems has released a series of digital microscopes that simplify microscopy. The series includes the Leica DM4000 B and DM5000 B for routine and research biological applications, diagnostics, cancer research, cell biology and biotechnology.
Microarray fluorescence reader
18 August, 2003 | Beckman Coulter Australia
Beckman Coulter has introduced a fluorescence-based CCD microplate reader for the automatic quantitation of hundreds of protein analytes on the A2 MicroArray Plate. The A2 MicroArray Reader has been specially designed to work with the A2 MicroArray System to quantitate multiplexed immunoassays. Part of the ProteomeLab family of products, this protein microarray system has the potential to allow users to detect and quantitate protein-protein interactions, protein immunoassays, DNA-protein interactions, enzymatic reactions and other protein assays.
Quantitative innoculating loops
18 August, 2003 | Interpath Services Pty Ltd
Interpath Services has a range of accurately calibrated nickel-chrome (NiChrome) wire loops for performing quantitative specimen cultures.
Flash point tester
14 July, 2003 | John Morris Scientific Pty Ltd
The Setaflash Series 3 flash point tester has been designed for rapid testing and spot checks for most user applications. Checking flash point is important during inspection and analysis of many products. For example, in the classification of potentially hazardous substances where storage, transport and disposal charges are based on flammability and where incorrect classification can lead to significant added costs.
Laboratory catalogue
14 July, 2003 | Hanna Instruments Pty Ltd
Hanna Instruments 2003 General Catalogue (25th Edition) is available for distribution.
Film seal testing
14 July, 2003 | IDM Instruments
The Hot Tack Tester is an advanced system for monitoring the seal performance of flexible and semi-rigid plastic films and laminates.
Automated pipette
14 July, 2003 | VWR International Pty Ltd
The 'HandyStep electronic' from Brand is a microprocessor-controlled, battery-operated pipette with automatic tip size recognition for the encoded Plastibrand PD-Tips. It is also compatible with most standard dispenser tips, including Combitips and Combitips Plus, by manually entering the tip size.
Tubing assembly
14 July, 2003 | Omnifit Ltd
Omnifit has developed a tubing assembly with leak-tight gripper fittings for fluid transfer in spectrophotometers. Each flow cell consists of a glass tube held in an aluminium housing. The requirement was for a PTFE tubing assembly with fittings that would seal to the glass surface of the flow cell while accommodating variations in the alignment between the cell and its housing. The dimensions of the flow cell tubing were 1.6 mm OD and 1.0 mm ID.
Analytical QC LIMS
14 July, 2003 | Thermo Electron Corporation
Thermo LabSystems has announced that Analytical Quality Control (AQC) functionality is now available as part of the latest version of its Nautilus LIMS (Laboratory Information Management System).
IR thermometer/camera
14 July, 2003 | ECEFast
The Raytek MX6 is a handheld infrared thermometer with integral digital camera. Temperature measurements are made instantly and easily with the full function thermometer in the range of -30 to 900°C or with SZ option from -50 to 500°C. The target is accurately indicated with a bright coaxial circular laser which is accurate at any distance. Standard optics provide 60:1 distance to target ratio, while the CF option allows targets as small as 6 mm at 300 mm. The MX6 can be programmed with up to 100 customised locations by name and with alarms.
