Packard Model 8400 hydrogen generator uses a solid polymer electrolyte cell and large water reservoir to produce hydrogen at rates up to 500 cc/min. The unit can be operated at 117 or 230 VAC; adapter kits are available for 100 and 240 VAC operation. Alltech Associates 208 M i c r o p h o t o m e t e r s . Models MPM 400 and MPM 800 microscope photometers cover the spectral range of 2 4 0 - 2 1 0 0 nm. Dedicated software p e r m i t s one- or two-dimensional photometric mapping as well as spectrophotometric, statistical, and kinetic analysis. Carl Zeiss 209 Ion measurement. Chloride Station is designed for the determination of chloride ion concentration in foods, beverages, and environmental samples. Features include five measurement modes; a seven-segment, fourdigit LED display; a n d t i t r a t i o n times of < 30 s. Buchler Instruments 210 Gels. COPS column protection system prevents damage or loss of soft gels used in preparative-, pilot-, or production-scale applications. The system shuts down the pump, isolates the column, and sounds a warning if sensors detect air or high pressures. Dorr-Oliver 211 Oxygen. Series 300C oxygen analyzers are designed for the continuous

monitoring of trace or percent oxygen in potentially hazardous environments. The analyzers are unaffected by flow rate, position, motion, vibration, or the presence of other gases. Teledyne Analytical Instruments 212 LC. Model 1350 soft-start HPLC pump, which prevents column shock by gradually ramping the flow rate to the final level, is equipped with a diagnostic output for simplified troubleshooting. The titanium and stainless steel versions can withstand extremes in pH and salt concentration. Bio-Rad Laboratories 213
Software Correlation. 2DCORR, which runs under Lab Calc on PS/2, PC, and compatible computers, correlates different regions of a spectrum or different types of spectra to aid in band assignment. The correlation matrix can be displayed as a contour map, a hidden line perspective plot, or as individual correlation plots. Galactic Industries 214 Data plotting. Graph version 3.0 allows data transformations with operators including log, exp, sqrt, add, subtract, reciprocal, integral, and derivative. Features include multiple y-axis p l o t t i n g a n d d i g i t a l d a t a smoothing. MicroMath Scientific Software 215
