A NEW hybrid laboratory instrument from Panalytical performs a variety of advanced X-ray scattering analysis. The Empyrean Nano is a goniometer-based X-ray scattering platform for advanced small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) experiments. The instrument can also gather wide-angle X-ray scattering (WAXS)…

Light-scattering detectors ‘out-perform the opposition’
TWO NEW evaporative light-scattering detectors for liquid chromatography will deliver more sensitivity, higher efficiency, and better reproducibility that any alternative currently available, says Agilent. Promising up to nine times the sensitivity of rival detectors, the 1290 and 1260 Infinity evaporative…
Sensor electrodes use silver but no mercury
A NEW series of pH and reference electrodes from Sensorex promise the performance of mercury chloride (calomel) electrodes but without the mercury and its associated hazards. The new ‘calomel-free’ electrodes are available in a glass or thermoplastic body, and feature…
LC detector delivers thirty times the range and sensitivity
THE LATEST diode array detector for liquid chromatography from Agilent delivers 30 times more sensitivity and 30 times more range in linear UV than previous detectors, the company says. This makes 1200 Infinity Series equipped with the high dynamic range diode…
Polycarbonate electrodes to premiere at Pittcon 2012
A NEW range of rugged polycarbonate bodied 12mm electrodes for pH and ORP measurement will be shown for the first time at Pittcon 2012. Intended for general laboratory operations, the S150C and S151C-ORP electrodes from Sensorex are suitable for use…
Radiometer photometers have interchangeable sensors
THE SPECTROLINE AccuMax range of digital radiometers/photometers provide accurate readouts for UV irradiance, visible illuminance and luminance light readings, says UK distributor UVman. The company says that, when fitted with a sensor detector, the AccuMax readout satisfies multiple laboratory and…
Low cost pH and ORP sensors
TRADITIONAL epoxy body electrodes and sensors are known for their durability, but many laboratories these days are keen to source lower-cost alternatives. Sensorex says it has provided just that with its new S150C and S151C-ORP 12mm pH/ORP (oxidation reduction potential)…
More sensitivity with multi-photon fluorescence
MAKING use of every photon that a sample emits under fluorescence imaging is increasingly important in advanced life science research, says Olympus Europa, introducing its new FV10MP-BXD-GAP photodetector. This non-descanned unit can capture very faint fluorescence signals and so minimise…
Acoustic Biosensor has eight analysis channels
SAW Instruments has completed the North American launch of SamX, the latest in its range of acoustic biosensors to exploit surface acoustic wave (Saw) technology. SamX has eight analysis channels and an adaptable microfluidic layout to enhance studies of real-time…
Accurate pH in variable temperatures
UNLIKE standard pH electrodes, Sensorex says its research grade pHase pH electrodes are specially designed for fast, accurate and stable pH measurements even with large temperature changes. This makes them suitable for quality control and R+D use in applications including…
