UV–vis/NIR spectrophotometer. The Lambda series of

LC flow meters. These units are made for measurements below 50 µL/ min and offer resolution down to 0.5 nL/ min. They are fully digital, calibrated meters with repeatability of 0.8% and a readout speed of 200 readings/s. Applications include system validation, column flow monitoring, leak detection, and pump pulsation checks. Sensirion Ag

spectrophotometers allow for molecular analyses based on UV, visible, and NIR spectroscopy. The instruments come with a sampling accessory for absolute reflectance measurements at variable angles. The two sample compartments in the instruments are large and allow the use of accessory modules. Sampling modules snap in and require no alignment or setup.

PerkinElmer

INSTRUMENTATION FTIR spectrometer. The Vertex 70 is a fully digital FTIR spectrometer that can be equipped with optical components to cover the spectral range from 30 cm–1 in the far-IR, through the near-IR, and up to the visible spectral range at 25,000 cm–1. The standard spectral resolution of ~0.5 cm–1 is suitable for most analytical samples; the spectrometer can be upgraded to a boxcar resolution of 0.16 cm–1. Bruker Optics Workflow software. Knowledge Discovery Environment 1.9 is an enhanced open discovery workflow solution developed to create, capture, and manage valuable process knowledge in the highthroughput discovery environment. Open discovery workflow technology enables investigators to build reusable workflows that integrate, mine, analyze, and visualize information. Discovery productivity is enhanced by the execution of advanced, integrated, biological, and chemical analyses, which incorporate all the required data sources, applications, and algorithms. InforSense Plate spotter. AccuSpot is a MALDI plate spotter that automates LC microfractionation, spotting, and preparation for MS analysis. It enables spotting in volumes of 10 nL or more on up to 9 microwell plates in 96 or 384 format or 18 2  2 format plates. Spotting can be performed in either continuous or time-specific mode. The AccuSpot features automatic addition of matrix solution and a standard © 2004 AMERICAN CHEMICAL SOCIETY

CCD camera that continuously monitors the spotting operation. Shimadzu

pH. The Syntrode line measures pH values in chemically challenging samples with a long-term thermal behavior that meets the requirements for continuous and reliable monitoring of syntheses. The electrodes are available in 30- or 45-cm lengths and feature a fixed ground sleeve diaphragm. Brinkmann Q control. The Digital Q control allows the quality factor or “Q” of an AFM cantilever to be optimized. Through Q enhancement, the cantilever stays in the attractive mode longer, even with a sharp tip and/or with large amplitudes. Q control minimizes sample and tip damage by maintaining attractive or repulsive mode. Asylum Research

GC detector. CP-4900 differential mobility detector (µ-DMD) uses a tunable ion filter to detect specific target components with increased sensitivity. The µ-DMD is fully integrated into the basic CP-4900 micro-GC hardware. The operation conditions are made part of the software, which eliminates any additional instrumentation or new methods. The integrated design of the µ-DMD makes the instrument suitable for online analysis and monitoring. Varian Elemental analyzer. When used with the S2 Ranger, Equa All allows standardless quantification of all elements from sodium to uranium in concentration ranges from 100% to the parts-per-millionlevel in all matrixes, such as minerals, oils, and metals. Equa All supports all sample preparation techniques and is available for the S2 Ranger Manual and the S2 Ranger Automatic. Bruker Biosciences FT-NIR.

multiplexer allows remote monitoring of multiple sampling points without the labor associated with traditional sampling methods. The instrument is ideal for analyzing solids, powders, and liquids. Compatibility with the industry’s leading fiber-optic probe manufacturers allows a wide range of diffuse reflection, transflection, and transmission sample interfaces for almost any sample process.

Thermo Electron Refractometer. The Optilab rEX is an RI detector with 256 the detection power and up to 50 the dynamic range of other RI detectors. The rEX has a flow cell with a total volume of only 7.4 µL, which translates into minimized band broadening and better temperature stability. The instrument can measure the absolute RI of a solution, as well as the dn/dc of a solvent at the same wavelength as the light-scattering instrument. The light source in the rEX can be replaced for other wavelengths.

Wyatt Dispenser. The WellMate is a highspeed, small-footprint, 8-channel fluid dispenser for 96- and 384-well microplates. It features a height-adjustable dispenser head to supply shallow and deep well plates and low-cost disposable pre-sterilized tubing cartridges that enable dispensing of volumes of 2.0–2000 µL. Programmable in 1.0-µL increments, its memory can store as many as 18 dispenser protocols and it

has a digital keypad. RS232 programming promotes robotic integration, and a removable plate stage makes cleaning fast and easy. Matrix Technologies

Particle size analyzers. The Insitec is the only fully compliant on-line analyzer that makes use of industry-standard laser diffraction particle size analysis to serve the process analytical needs of pharmaceutical milling, spray drying, compaction, and granulation. This capability allows manufacturers to tighten quality control, minimize off-specification material, and gain greater insight into individual processes. Malvern

Sample processors. The Metrohm USB line of sample processors offers power and flexibility in the automated Titrandos. The 814 is ideal for analyzing small to medium numbers of samples, and the 815 Robotic Sample Processor XL analyzes larger numbers of samples.
