For particle characterization, one of the most important measurements is the determination of the distribution of particle size in a sample. While this may seem to be a simple measurement, the reality is often complicated by a number of factors, particularly if the particle size becomes very small. At least a half dozen different techniques […]
KSV Instruments named new distributors: Massanalys Nordic AB for Sweden; dpUNION Instrumentação Analítica e Científica for Brazil and Arquimed SA for Chile. Fauske & Associates named PT.

Under an OEM agreement, Micro Imaging Technology will supply its tabletop rapid microbial identification system as an option for JMAR’s BioSentry Water Monitoring System. Particle size analyzer company NanoSight […]
Isothermal titration calorimetry (ITC), which is a subset of microcalorimetry, is one of the fastest-growing analytical techniques on the market. The technique’s market, valued at $45 million in 2007, is expected to achieve midteen sales growth over the next few years, while calorimetry sales as a whole are only expected to grow in single digits. […]
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 […]
Arc/spark is a specialized optical emission spectroscopy (OES) technique that is strongly associated with the analysis of metals. In principle, these instruments can be used with nonconductive materials if they are prepared by grinding and forming a mixture with powdered graphite. There are also dedicated systems with specialized electrodes for the analysis of liquids, generally […]
