When buying a new liquid temperature control product, there are a number of factors to consider when picking a product.
For David Hemmig, director of equipment sales at Matheson Tri-Gas (Basking Ridge, NJ), the key word in on-site gas generation is reliability. He explains that a major problem with gas generators that incorporate some sort of compressor is that eventually that component fails.
Life scientists started using microplates in the 1950s, with some of the first ones literally machined from solid blocks of plastic. You don’t need to wander around a molecular biology lab long today to see the progress in microplates, some now including thousands of wells.
Analytical and QA/QC labs, under ever-increasing pressure to improve time to market, ensure compliance and realize cost savings, now have an all-inclusive informatics solution that gives them complete control over their methods and Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) without having to purchase, integrate and validate software from multiple vendors.
Learning to use evaporation starts very early in chemistry. For students, the process takes a very simple
approach, maybe just putting a solution in a beaker over a flame and waiting. That technique, though,
doesn’t provide the sophistication, control, or throughput that advanced techniques require. Consequently, scientists can use dedicated evaporators.
Microplate handlers are the robotic “glue” that unifies operations around a microplate workflow. The
evolution of robotics and software has caused a “democratization” of lab automation in general, and microplate handlers in particular.
When preparing a sample for analysis that requires high temperature and pressure in an acidic environment, a scientist selects microwave digestion for the process. This attracts scientists from an extraordinarily large range.
Total organic carbon (TOC) analyzers present a rapid, efficient measure of the carbon contamination content of public drinking water and ultrapure water for lab operations.
Most HPLC analyses employ some form of sample preparation, especially with low-concentration analytes in complex mixtures.
Fluorescent western blotting is a powerful imaging technique which facilitates accurate protein quantification and multi-color analysis. At Abcam, we listened to the demands of our customers, and generated high quality Alexa Fluor® 680/790 conjugated secondaries, to a large number of target species, for fluorescent western blotting. As a result of this diversity and minimal spectral overlap of Alexa Fluor® 680 and 790, the reagents are ideal for multi-color analysis; furthermore customers can be reassured of the quality as Abcam publishes QC data for each individual product within the range.
When Wayne State University’s team began Phase II of its Chemistry building renovation, it was stumped by a seemingly simple question. Use a single blade damper terminal or a Venturi air valve technology to control its laboratory ventilation and exhaust system?
Experience the benefits of going headless.
