Is Your Lab Like a Peanut Butter & Jelly Sandwich?
Does your laboratory have “ethical muscle”? Do you feel your employees are flexing this muscle? Ethics and data integrity should be an integral part of your laboratory’s quality program. Just as peanut butter, jelly and bread go together, so do ethics, data integrity, and quality. However, it is a concept that is too often overlooked in the field of science.

NEX CG from Rigaku
Rigaku NEX CG delivers rapid qualitative and quantitative determination of major and minor atomic elements, from 11Na to 92U, in a wide variety of samples. Unlike conventional Energy Dispersive X-ray Fluorescence (EDXRF) spectrometers, NEX CG was engineered with a close-coupled Cartesian Geometry (CG) optical kernel that dramatically increases signal-to-noise. NEX CG software, RPF-SQX, features Rigaku Profile Fitting (RPF) technology, allowing semi-quantitative analysis of almost all sample types without standards — and rigorous quantitative analysis with standards.

''Instrument is Off'' Problem
Posted by: Cagdas
Message: An undesired problem occurs for our LTQ XL system such that when I intend to open the software, the instrument is seen to be off. The vacuum and communication lamps are orange and the system lamp is off although the power lamp is green. Because the instrument is off, it is impossible to start [the] diagnostics tool. What could be the possible reason for this? Thanks a lot for your kind interest. [Question relates to the Thermo Scientific LTQ XL* Linear Ion Trap]
