ICP-OES and ICP-MS Accessory
Niagara Plus

  • Halves ICP operating costs
  • Utilizes flow injection technology to reduce the laboratory’s environmental footprint
  • Analysis time typically reduced by 50%
  • Internal standard added automatically
  • Very low carryover - the sample does not contact any peristaltic pump tubing

Glass Expansion

Multi-Dimensional GC System
MDGC/GCMS-2010

  • Expands the capabilities of target compound analyses in complex sample matrices
  • Two combined capillary columns of different selectivity greatly increases separation power
  • “Multi-Deans switch” directs flow from the first column directly to a monitor detector or to the second column and detector
  • Allows the use of any combination of GC and MS detectors
  • Dual-oven system eliminates the need for cryo-trapping

Trinocular Stereo Microscopes
SMZ-745T line

  • Features the highest zoom magnification in its class at 7.5x zoom
  • Well-suited for digital imaging in both industrial and biomedical fields
  • Equipped with a camera port and a built-in 0.55x c-mount adapter
  • Allows bright and high contrast images to be obtained
  • A long working distance of 115mm provides room for fabrication and manipulation on the sample
