Merck Millipore Direct Detect spectrometer
01 April, 2014 | Supplied by: Merck Pty LtdWith Merck Millipore's Direct Detect spectrometer, the user is simply required to spot 2 μL of the sample, blank with buffer and read. There is no sample prep, no tedious standard curves and no messy cuvettes or liquid waste.
Romer AgraStrip for Total Milk
01 April, 2014 | Supplied by: IntermedPreviously, to test for the presence of milk allergens, one had to decide whether to look for casein or Beta-lactoglobulin as an indicator for allergenic residues. With the AgraStrip Total Milk, the user can test for both at the same time.
Improved method of mass spectrometry
24 March, 2014Scientists at the Institute of Immunology of the University Medical Center of Johannes Gutenberg University Mainz (JGU) have improved the analytical method of mass spectrometry.
An ultrasensitive test for performance-enhancing drugs
19 March, 2014Researchers have developed a new way to detect performance-enhancing drugs (PEDs), said to be 1000 times more sensitive than current methods.
The best laid plans of mice in men
14 March, 2014Scientists from the UK and Australia have created a mouse strain that expresses a fluorescing biosensor in every cell of its body, allowing diseased cells and drugs to be tracked and evaluated in real time.
ESO telescope finds its MUSE
07 March, 2014An innovative instrument called MUSE (Multi Unit Spectroscopic Explorer) has been successfully installed on the European Southern Observatory's (ESO) Very Large Telescope (VLT) at the Paranal Observatory in Chile.
Ultrafast laser spectroscopy observes changes in new materials
05 March, 2014Scientists at the US Department of Energy's Ames Laboratory are revealing the mysteries of new materials using ultrafast laser spectroscopy - a technique in which many quick images reveal subtle movements and changes inside the materials.

28 February, 2014 | Supplied by: SciTech Pty LtdB&WTek's NanoRam is a compact, lightweight, handheld Raman spectrometer and integrated computing system designed for rapid raw material identification and verification. The spectrometer enables the development of standardised and validated methods for purity and quality control applications.
A complex biochemical system in a droplet
21 February, 2014In an effort to investigate the reactions taking place in a biological cell, scientists tried to replicate them in an artificial cell. Such experiments have so far worked with very simple reactions, but the team managed to establish a complex biochemical reaction in tiny droplets only a few micrometres in size.
Atomic structures and rotating anode sources
20 February, 2014 by Lauren DavisA new facility at the University of Melbourne's School of Physics has become home to a rotating anode source. The machine was installed by a team led by Professor Christopher Chantler, who noted that outside synchrotrons (of which there is only one in Australia), rotating anodes are one of the most powerful laboratory sources of X-rays.
Rigaku nano3DX X-ray microscope
18 February, 2014 | Supplied by: AXT Pty LtdThe nano3DX, from Rigaku, is a true X-ray microscope (XRM) with the ability to measure relatively large samples at high resolution. The product images the entire sample from multiple angles and can thus reconstruct a 3D image at 0.27 µm resolution.
