GC-2010 PLUS CAPILLARY GAS CHROMATOGRAPH
FASTER ANALYSIS, REDUCED DOWNTIME AND SUPERIOR REPRODUCIBILITY

The new GC-2010 Plus Capillary gas chromatograph from Shimadzu Scientific Instruments meets the increased demands of trace-level analysis, ensuring data quality for a wide range of applications. With a redesigned collection of detectors that feature market-leading sensitivity and quick heating and cooling, the GC-2010 Plus improves separation performance, increases sample throughput and reduces operator time.

Third-generation Advanced Flow Controllers (AFC) support high-speed analysis at a maximum pressure of 970 kPa and 1,200 mL/minute maximum flow rate. Incorporating a double-jet cooling system and optimized air flow channels, the instrument enables a rapid cooling time of 450°C to 50°C in 3.4 minutes, allowing the next analysis to start sooner.

The unit’s detectors have been redesigned for greater compactness and higher sensitivity. The compact flame photometric detector (FPD) uses a condenser lens and total reflection system with mirrors for improved flame stability. Using clean detector gas flows and low-noise cables, the flame ionization detector (FID) achieves double the sensitivity of previous Shimadzu detectors, ensuring a minimum detected quantity of 1.5 pgC/s.

Reduced analysis time is achieved through the use of a backflushing system that reverses the flow of carrier gas. After all target compounds are detected, residual substances are backflushed from inside the column to the injection port.

CORRELATIVE MICROSCOPY TOOL
COMBINES ATMOSPHERIC SCANNING ELECTRON MICROSCOPE WITH LIGHT MICROSCOPE

JEOL’s new ClairScope™ enables uncompromised observation of samples in their native state using a light microscope (LM) and an atmospheric scanning electron microscope (ASEM) to significantly reduce sample prep time and allow dynamic observation of real time processes.

The wide-field light microscope with emersion lens is co-axially aligned with the inverted electron column, making it easy to switch between LM and ASEM without moving the specimen dish. Samples can be observed dynamically at room temperature and at atmosphere, without having to wait for drying processes.

The specimen dish features an ultrathin SiN (silicon nitride) film window that separates the sample in atmosphere from the vacuum in the ASEM. An electron beam is projected from below to the sample on the film for high resolution imaging of the sample in atmosphere. The dish also makes it possible to add reagents, drugs and other substances to the sample in order to observe reactions in both liquid and gas environments.

Ideal for the life science and materials industries, dynamic processes such as platelet generation, microbe growth, crystallization, electrochemical reactions and dendrite growth can be followed in real time. No other products, add-ons or consumables are required, other than the sample holders.

CYLINDER-BASED MICROARRAY TECHNOLOGY
DISCOVER INTRICATE OFF-RATE MEASUREMENT WITH HYBCELL TECHNOLOGY

Hybcell is the first DNA or protein microarray based on the use of cylinders instead of slides. These cylindrical microarrays yield robust hybridization and reproducible results by rotational sample agitation.

The hybcells are robotically processed by the hyborg—a fully automated, compact device that can hold up to 96 hybcells at a time. Hyborg integrates thermocycler, hybridization station and scanner all in one unit. Temperatures, buffers and multiple scans are freely configurable, providing the greatest flexibility and kinetic analysis.

In typical microbiology, where it can take 48 hours for a sample to produce results, hybcell technology provides results within ten minutes for a multiplexed ELISA, up to two hours for a compact sequencing application, all while delivering hundreds of results for a single sample (presence of bacteria, viruses, genes, antibodies, etc).

Hybcell technology offers selectivity (elimination of unspecific binding effects), measurement of binding kinetics, assay versatility, fully automated assay operation and minimum user intervention.

Hybcells can be filled by either a pipette or automated robot. Each sample is then linked to a unique bar code. Once the hybcells are transferred to the hyborg, all further processes are automated, reducing the risk of user errors.

LIQUID DOSING MADE SIMPLE
TRANSFER CORROSIVE LIQUIDS WITHOUT HAVING TO MEASURE AND POUR

KNF Neuberger designed its new SIMDOS® diaphragm liquid dosing pump with simplicity and ease in mind. Ideally suited for transferring corrosive liquids in the lab, the pump is available with a variety of wetted materials, including PTFE/FFPM.

The SIMDOS pump achieves fast, precise calibration within a short amount of time, transferring liquids at a flow rate of 0 to 100 ml per minute. Offering consistent reliability throughout entire processes, SIMDOS makes programming and access of all functions simple and intuitive.

Safety is a definite concern, with the pump head located outside the splash-protected IP-65 housing. The pump is safe to run dry and is self-priming in up to 9 feet of water. It can handle pressures of up to 90 psig and can transfer viscous media up to 150 centistokes.

Roland Anderson, laboratory product manager at KNF Neuberger, says SIMDOS has many benefits over conventional pumps. “Most people use a peristaltic pump,” he said. “When you factor in the bending and aging of the tubing, performance starts to vary over time. The [SIMDOS] doesn’t use any tubing, and it gives consistent results throughout its life.”

The pump’s electronic display, combined with a touch control knob, makes accessing all of its functions very simple. “It’s designed so it’s plug and play,” Anderson added. “You can plug it in… walk away, and have it dose in the way you programmed it.”

For more information, visit www.knf.com/labnew.htm or visit booth 1935 at Pittcon 2010 in Orlando, Florida. Roland Anderson, Laboratory Product Manager, can be reached at randerson@knf.com or by phone at 609-890- 8600 ext. 241.

Laser Particle Size Analyzer
Tri-Laser Design Ensures Accuracy Across Entire Measurement Range

The 1190 Particle Size Analyzer from Cilas Particle Size integrates three lasers to provide accuracy and precision from 0.04 to 2,500 microns. Measurements can be made in either liquid or dry dispersion modes and switching modes can be done with a single click of the mouse. The fully programmable dispersion system eliminates the need for the user to change hardware and it can switch between modes without having to be realigned. All optical components are mounted on a rigid cast iron base plate to ensure that the system is always aligned.

The integration of a CCD camera offers users the ability to measure an extended range of samples while maintaining a short bench design, providing for a more rugged tool. This concept allows the measurement range to be extended without increasing the size of the instrument.

Cilas’ ExpertShape Image Analysis software allows for the measurement of shape parameters such as aspect ratio, perimeter, area, shape factor and fiber length. The 1190 also includes a free fall module for users who want to analyze their samples in their naturally agglomerated state.

For more information, visit www.particle-size.com. Product Manager Richard Nameth can be reached at richard@particle-size.com or by phone at 608- 274-7719. Cilas Particle Size will be at Pittcon 2010 in Orlando, Florida at booth 2072.

CONFIGURABLE MICROSCOPE SYSTEM
CUSTOMIZED OPERATION FOR UP TO TEN USERS

The new Axio Imager 2 microscope from Carl Zeiss promotes maximum flexibility and ease of use. The customizable options of the ten stand versions make it easy to achieve optimal performance and functionality. The light manager can store and reproduce the illumination intensities for each magnification, while the motorized stands allow one to select stored contrasting techniques via the contrast manager.

The microscope’s multi-user capabilities can store vital system parameters for up to ten users, making it simple for everyone in the lab to have their settings readily available to them. The Z-stand features a high-performance focus drive, with which a user can perform even the smallest focus movements.

The Axio Imager 2 features a new optical design for the transmitted light beam path and the condensers, permitting homogenous illumination at low magnifications and an even greater working distance. Two added functions are the ability to automatically switch between reflected and transmitted light and the generation of mixed light, for areas of research involving living cells or organic tissue.

The AxioVision software automatically stores important magnification, contrast and illumination data. The triggerable LED light source for Köhler illumination, integrated with the z-piezo insert, offers rapid acquisition of Z-stacks or high resolution overview images.
