Product in Action

PolyScience is a leading manufacturer of liquid temperature control solutions. Since 1963, PolyScience has responded to the needs of laboratory, plastics, medical, chemical and industrial markets with countless innovations. Our product offering includes circulating water baths, unstirred general purpose water baths, chillers and coolers and a range of application-specific products.

The Infinite M1000 PRO is Tecan’s premium multimode microplate reader, offering outstanding performance for demanding applications in drug discovery, assay development and life sciences research. Its modular architecture offers complete flexibility, enabling the Infinite M1000 PRO to be tailored to individual application needs and budgets.

Waters® NuGenesis® Lab Management System uniquely combines synergistic data, workflow and sample management capabilities to support the entire product lifecycle from discovery through manufacturing. This user-centric platform encompasses NuGenesis SDMS, compliance-ready data repository, NuGenesis ELN, a flexible analytical electronic laboratory notebook, and NuGenesis Sample Management.

Mechanical sample lysis is rapidly becoming the preferred sample preparation method in life science labs for the isolation of DNA, RNA, proteins, metabolites and other small molecules because the elimination of chemicals, enzymes, and detergents minimizes the introduction of potential inhibitors to downstream processes. The FastPrep-24 5G™ (Fig. 1) is the newest innovation in beat-beaters and produces the fastest lysis of even the most difficult samples.

After 15 years of constant improvement, S.C.A.T. SafetyCaps belong to the global safety standard in pharmaceutical and chemical laboratories. They enable operators to get solvent vapors under control and create perfect solvent conditions for their HPLC systems. The automated caps think ahead and fight health and environmental hazards directly at their origin - the solvent receptacle.

Filters vs. Monochromators - When using a microplate reader, these are the two options to filter light into monochromatic wavelengths. Filters offered higher performance because of greater light transmission and wider bandwidths; monochromators offered greater flexibility, no new filters were needed for each new assay.
