In This Category Industry news Research & Case Studies Latest news   Oldest Sample of Earth's Crust Dated Using CAMECA Instrumentation Apr 18, 2014 International Research Team Relies on CAMECA Atom Probe and Ion Mass Spectrometer to Determine Age and Geochemistry of 4.4-Billion-Year-Old Australian Zircon Crystal An international team of geoscientists, utilizing advanced microanalytical instruments, has determined that a tiny fragment of zircon crystal from Western Australia is about 4.4 billion years old, making it the oldest confirmed intact piece of the Earth’s crust. The crystal, not much larger than the width of four human hairs, was analyzed using the latest Atom Probe Tomography (APT) and Secondary Ion Mass Spectrometry (SIMS) instrumentation from CAMECA®, a unit of the Materials Analysis Division of AMETEK®, Inc....   Fast and Accurate Isocratic Method to Determine Ammonia in Adenosine Apr 18, 2014 Thermo Fisher Scientific has developed an ion chromatography (IC)-based method for the determination of ammonia in adenosine that can easily meet the sensitivity requirements in the U.S. Pharmacopeia (USP) adenosine monograph. Application Note 1072: Ion Chromatography Assay for Ammonia in Adenosinedemonstrates that this proposed IC method for the determination of ammonia in adenosine enables an analysis time of 5 min, thereby yielding high sample throughput. This IC assay avoids the hazardous chemicals used in the color-based ammonia assay in the USP adenosine monograph...   Redipor 2014-2015 Price List Details Extensive Ready-To-Use Culture Media Range Apr 18, 2014 Cherwell Laboratories, specialists in products for environmental monitoring and process validation, have announced the availability of their new Redipor® prepared microbiological media range price list for 2014-2015. Detailing Cherwell’s extensive range of ready-to-use culture media in bottles and plates, the new prices are available on request. Manufactured at Cherwell’s ISO9001 registered site in Bicester, Redipor prepared media offers a high-quality, flexible solution for environmental monitoring, sterility testing of products, operator validation and process validation....   Scientists publish new data explaining the decline of giant animals in the Basin of Mexico Apr 17, 2014 Scientists from Liverpool John Moores University (LJMU), the Universidad Michoacana de San Nicolas de Hidalgo and the United States Geological Survey have reported new data that shows how a volcanic event might have wiped out mammoths including sabre-toothed cats, in the Basin of Mexico. They have discovered that the extinction could have been caused by a series of volcanic events and therefore the primary cause was environmental disruption and not man-made factors. This is despite the fact that Paleo-Indian populations were also present in this region at this time and several have been found associated with the volcanic ash deposits....   New NIST Publication on AFM-IR has Implications for Catalysis Research Apr 17, 2014 Anasys Instruments reports on a new publication from their nanoIR users at NIST which assess the chemical composition of a metal-organic framework with nanoscale resolution. The publication may be accessed in the leading journal “Angewandte Chemie International Edition.” Researchers from the NIST Center for Nanoscale Science and Technology (CNST), in collaboration with researchers from University of Lyon, France, have applied a novel microscopy technique to characterize metal-organic framework (MOF) materials, potentially opening a pathway for engineering the chemical properties of these materials at the nanoscale.* MOFs are composed of metal ions connected by organic linker molecules to form 3D-crystalline networks of nanopores with....   Eppendorf launches its New Spring 2014 Advantage Offer Apr 16, 2014 Eppendorf has launched its latest Advantage Offer, enabling customers to purchase premium quality products at very favourable prices. The new limited time offers, ‘More Than Just a Tube’, provide up to a 27% cost saving on specific bundles, all carefully designed to help users get the most from the new Eppendorf Tubes® 5.0 mL system. These great value bundles include the refrigerated multipurpose Centrifuge 5810 R, the new Eppendorf ThermoMixer® C, and the new Multipette® M4....     BGI Tech Offers More Cost-Effective Sequencing with Time-Limited Promotions on RNA-Seq Services Apr 16, 2014 BGI, one of the world’s leading genomics services providers, has announced a range of RNA sequencing services offered at reduced prices, available until 30 June 2014. The total RNA sequencing service, which covers the whole transcriptome (long non-coding RNA and mRNA) as well as miRNA, allows researchers to save up to $1800/sample. For RNA-Seq transcriptome analysis (mRNA) and RNA-Seq quantification (mRNA) services, the time-limited offers start at only $450/sample. All offers are available in Europe and the Americas....   Analytical Lab Utilizes Photometric Detector to Provide Critical Differentiation Apr 16, 2014 Over the years, the businesses of Xylem Analytics have made it a point to address customer needs. And a perfect example of that is the implementation of an OI Analytical photometric detector during the processing of spearmint oils to help address the volatility of sulfur compounds. During the development of spearmint and other essential oils, analytical labs are challenged by volatile sulfur compounds, as they impart undesirable odors to essential oils and have extremely low olfactory thresholds. So the detecting, quantifying, and eliminating of sulfur compounds is an important aspect of flavor and fragrance quality control work. Two species of spearmint is cultivated in the United States every year, with 1.09 million kilograms of spearmint oil produced in the U.S. in 2008....   EKF Diagnostics Acquires Separation Technology Inc. Apr 16, 2014 Hematology testing company complements EKF’s POCT product portfolio. The UltraCrit is the first and only hematocrit/hemoglobin device to use ultrasound technology EKF Diagnostics, the global in vitro diagnostics business, announces that it has acquired Separation Technology, Inc. (STI), the Florida based manufacturer of in vitro diagnostics devices for hematology testing.  This acquisition complements EKF’s existing offering in the hemoglobin testing market place, which includes Hemo Control (also sold as HemoPoint H2 in USA and Asia). Notably, STI’s primary instrument is the UltraCrit hematocrit measurement device which is FDA cleared for blood donor screening....   Reproducible Low Temperature Reactions On Small to Medium Scale Apr 15, 2014 Sygnature Discovery (Nottingham, UK) has been using an Asynt DrySyn SnowStorm system to perform low temperature reactions which have traditionally been difficult  to undertake reproducibly on a small to medium scale. The Asynt DrySyn SnowStorm offers an attractive solution to laboratories undertaking low temperature reaction chemistries. Available in a choice of configurations, the DrySyn SnowStorm system provides controlled cooling and heating for sub-ambient parallel chemistry without the need for jacketed reaction vessels, or ice baths. Operating with a suitable chiller / circulator, a DrySyn SnowStorm system provides accurate, stable temperature control down to -50 °C and up to +150 °C....   more articles >>
