DIY compact frequency combs
16 July, 2013Atomic clocks, medical diagnostics and astronomy all need tools for measuring different colours of light. These laser frequency combs are getting smaller and simpler to make. They are not quite DIY for the average home handyman but they are getting there.
Shimadzu LC/MS/MS method packages
09 July, 2013 | Supplied by: Shimadzu Scientific Instruments (Oceania) Pty LtdShimadzu has released three method packages for LC/MS/MS.

Fingerprint forensics getting closer to the TV representation
08 July, 2013Contrary to all the TV shows, in real life only 10% of fingerprints taken from crime scenes yield identifications usable in court. But now a new way of detecting and visualising fingerprints from crime scenes using colour-changing fluorescent films could lead to higher confidence identifications from latent (hidden) fingerprints on knives, guns, bullet casings and other metal surfaces.
Rigaku Micro-Z ULS sulfur analyser
03 July, 2013 | Supplied by: AXT Pty LtdThe Rigaku Micro-Z ULS sulfur analyser is designed for the ultra-low-level sulfur analysis of diesel and petrol fuels. The benchtop WDXRF instrument measures both the sulfur peak and the background intensity.
Next Instruments OdourScan Model 2000 Electronic Nose
02 July, 2013 | Supplied by: Next Instruments Pty LtdThe OdourScan Model 2000 Electronic Nose has been developed to provide the food industry with a rapid means of detecting and quantifying odours and smells.
Alcohol chemistry in space
01 July, 2013Chemists have discovered that an ‘impossible’ reaction at cold temperatures actually occurs with vigour, which could change our understanding of how alcohols are formed and destroyed in space.
Is that bacteria dead yet?
01 July, 2013Nano and laser technology packed into small device tests antibiotic treatment in minutes.
Hanby TPH Field Test Kit
28 June, 2013 | Supplied by: http://hanbytest.com/productsThe Hanby TPH Field Test Kit system is a field-portable method providing rapid analyses down to ppb for aromatic compounds, including gasoline, diesel, PCBs and many others. The procedure extracts the aromatic compounds from the sample and provides immediate colorimetric identification of the concentration and type of contaminants present.

21 June, 2013 | Supplied by: Thermo Fisher ScientificThermo Scientific MAbPac Protein A column is an HPLC column for high-performance monoclonal antibody titre analysis. The product is specially designed for higher sensitivity and accurate concentration analysis over a wide linear range to minimise the need to re-analyse samples.
Waters Cortecs Columns
18 June, 2013 | Supplied by: Waters Australia Pty LtdWaters Corporation has introduced Cortecs Columns, a family of 1.6 µ solid-core UltraPerformance LC columns. The columns are said to bring higher efficiency to chromatography.
On-site analyses via autonomous energy-scavenging micro devices
14 June, 2013Sophisticated instruments small enough to fit in a shirt pocket will one day scavenge power from sunlight, body heat or other sources enabling analysis in the field rather than bringing samples and data back to the lab.
The body electric: researchers move closer to low-cost, implantable electronics
14 June, 2013New technology is paving the way for low-cost electronic devices that work in direct contact with living tissue inside the body.
