Grace Davison Discovery Sciences released the VisionHT line of ultrahigh-pressure columns with a 12,000 psi pressure rating. They are compatible with all ultra high-pressure systems. Varian combined its Load & Lock column technology with the PLRP-S rigid polymeric reversed phase media from its Polymer Laboratories subsidiary for preparation and process chromatography. Varian introduced the VariPep […]
IBO has selected LECO’s new TruTOF HT as the best new product from this year’s ASMS meeting in Indianapolis. Although the aesthetics of this new GC-TOF mass spectrometer are quite subdued, everything else about the new system is to the contrary. For starters, the system is a benchtop design, comparable in size to the only […]
Although the range of new product introductions at this year’s ASMS meeting did not match the scale or scope of last year, there were still a number of significantly new mass spectrometers and related products that will no doubt have a major impact on the mass spectrometry market. The most common theme among these new […]
The recent news of the presence of the industrial chemical melamine in US pet food and diethylene glycol in Central American toothpaste has heightened concern over the chemical contamination of imported products. Chinese toothpaste has been linked to the deaths of 51 people in Panama last year. Pet food made with melamine, contained in mislabeled […]
Once exclusively large, cumbersome instruments, both gas chromatographs (GC) and mass spectrometers (MS) have shrunk dramatically in size and power requirements. This has led to the development of GC/MS systems that can be operated outside of the laboratory. However, most of these instruments have been mobile, but not truly “man-portable” until more recently. . The […]
PerkinElmer launched the turnkey OneSource Laboratory Relocation service. Thermo Fisher Scientific introduced the 3D Model Integrated Services Solution, a customized maintenance solution based on a detailed needs assessment. Agilent expanded its Enterprise Edition qualification program, enabling a single protocol to meet compliance requirements, to include GC, LC and MS systems.
Company Announcements Germany’s Molnar-Institut acquired DryLab chromatography modeling software and the MethodMatch and ColumnMatch software from Rheodyne in 2006. Dionex established a European customer support center in 2006 in Olten, Switzerland. It joins the company’s other support centers in the US, China and Thailand. Dionex opened a new North American sales and service facility in […]
Atomic Spectroscopy Bruker AXS also unveiled some important x-ray components, such as the XFlash SDD detector that is now standard on the S2 Ranger and the new version of the MicroStar x-ray source. The MicroStar Ultra can provide a flux of 80 billion x-rays per square millimeter per second, similar to the performance of some […]
Simulated moving bed chromatography (SMB) is a variation of conventional liquid chromatography, which provides continuous chromatographic separations, as opposed to batch separations, which account for the majority of chromatography systems. For the most part, the use of SMB in the laboratory is tied to a narrow scope of industrial applications, for which it offers a […]
Numerous new products are introduced each year at Pittcon. However, Pittcon is not what it used to be for product introductions (see page 4). Thus, while IBO always has plenty of new products to choose from for its annual pick of the top product introductions at the show, Pittcon is not the first exhibition for […]
