Proper selection and use of viscosity instrumentation can bring valuable time savings to test programs in todays busy labs. Increased data throughput, coupled with detailed analysis, is a new horizon that has potential to offer enhanced quality control.

In-house generation of TOC-grade gas readily provides the required volume of sufficiently pure gas for superb sensitivity with a TOC analyzer. The gas is available on demand and is present at a lower pressure than the gas from a cylinder, increasing laboratory safety.

A few of the essential dos and donts of cell culture are mandatory; e.g. use of personal protective equipment (PPE). Many of them are common sense and apply to all laboratory areas. However some of them are specific to tissue culture.

Reporting from two recent laboratory informatics conferences, Gloria Metrick shares her insights into choosing the best informatics product to suit a particular labs needs and how some issues are evolving.

The latest equipment, instrument and system introductions to the laboratory market.

How one LC column manufacturer used a scientific data management system to decrease operational costs and accelerate product delivery.

Designed to quickly and safely remove solvents from 96- or 384-well plates.

Optimiser™ Features a microfluidic channel as the reaction chamber (instead of the well), reducing assay times and sample/reagent consumption.

AQUACOUNTER® AQV-2200S Small volume titration cell requires only 20mL of titration solvent for accurate measurements.

Dispenses up to four independent, parallel reagents in volumes from 1 µL to 3 mL, and microplates from 6- to 1,536-well, including low-profile, standard height, deep well and even microtubes.

Feature unitized flame retardant composite resin construction for total chemical and corrosion resistance.
