The Chemists' Club Library, 52 East 41st St., New York, N.Y. 10017 (212532-7649), has increased its information retrieval capability with the installation of a Hazeltine electronic terminal which, via the Lockheed Dialog System, gives it access to new data base sources such as Predicast, Inc., Chemical Abstract Condensates, and the National Technical Information Service. This new service augments that already available with Toxline, Chemline, and Cancerline information from the electronic archives of the Department of Health, Education & Welfare's National Library of Medicine. Library charges for its retrieval services vary according to the data base used. In addition to manual and terminal searches, copies of primary articles are furnished on request.
For Your Information Microcomputer Technique, Inc., 1120 Reston International Center Office Bldg., Reston, Va. 22091 (703620-9676), which specializes in hardware and software design of microprocessors and microcomputers, has opened two offices in California and one office in Boston as an expansion move. The company will maintain these microcomputer design centers complete with a laboratory and a range of microcomputer design support tools in addition to staffing with microcomputer design engineers. The new design centers augment those established earlier by Cramer Electronics. A long-term agreement between Cramer Electronics and Micro-
Baird-Atomic, Inc., of Bedford, Mass., has signed contracts with Satra Consultant Corp., New York, and Rigaku Industrial Corp. of Osaka, Japan, for distribution in the Soviet Union and Japan, respectively, of Baird's line of spectrochemical analytical instruments.
Don't buy less HPLC capability than you need —or more W i t h individual components you can assemble exactly the instrument you need —no more, no less— and still have the freedom to expand it later. The ISCO UA-5 is a multiwavelength photometer which can simultaneously record any 2 of 13 available wavelengths. For the price of a damped reciprocating pump, you can have the truly pulseless constant flow obtainable only with a syringe pump. ISCO pumps produce 200ml/hr at 2()0kg/cm 2 (2850psi). Any gradient can be made by the Dialagrad, whose multilinear programmer drives two pumps to generate exact, reproducible gradients. Pressure can be regulated by a flow-through monitor having a continuous digital readout. A n ISCO integrator, fraction collector, and column with Whatman packing complete the system. Incidentally, we also make complete chromatographs. Perhaps one of them meets your specifications. W r i t e for our catalog and find out
