Liquid chromatography mass spectrometry (LC-MS) is a powerful analytical technique which combines the separation capabilities of either high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) or ultra high performance liquid chromatography (UHPLC) with mass analysis by mass spectrometry.

Computerized and expandable systems allow for continuous processing and cost efficient lab expansion.

Problem: The use of laboratory automation increases productivity and precision, making it attractive for use in the pharmaceutical industry.

Chemical procedures commonly require the introduction of heat. This is typically in the form of a hot plate or open flame. While the best place to perform these types of chemical procedures is inside a chemical fume hood, most people are unaware of heat’s effect on the airflow through the fume hood, and the potential impact on containment.

Cleaning and rinsing lab and process carboys and containers by hand inevitably leads to problems with cross-contamination.

The epMotion 5075 LH is the ideal solution for advanced liquid handling demands.

ELGA’s new innovative Type I ultrapure water purification system ensures accurate consistent results. The PURELAB flex 3 & 4 are the latest additions to the award winning PURELAB flex range of systems.

Every laboratory requires high-quality water. Many labs or their parent organizations maintain dedicated plants to transform municipal water into a product lab managers can trust for routine jobs.

Sarah Haviland, lab manager and graduate student in the Department of Regenerative Medicine and Cell Biology at the Medical University of South Carolina, shares her experiences with contributing editor Tanuja Koppal, Ph.D., on choosing and installing a new point-of-use water purification system.

Portable instrumentation and analyzers are a booming business if recent announcements are any guide.
