Now you can turn your IBM PC/XT/AT into a fast, flexible, powerful data acquisition and control tool with the new Lab Master DMA from Scientific Solutions. Possible speeds to 100,000 samples per second are now available on the 16 A/D conversion channels. Both voltage/ current loop analog outputs are supplied on the same board. Digital outputs (24 bits of TTL compatible I/O) are provided with universal sockets for drivers or receivers—so you can tailor the Lab Master DMA to your requirements. Plus you receive menu-driven software along with software that lets you program in your own language—any BASIC, FORTRAN, C, Turbo PASCAL and many others. For controlling automation with PC economy call Scientific Solutions today.

The potential is scanned at the upstream electrode, and the reaction products are detected amperometrically at the downstream electrode. Detection limits of 10" 7 M hydroquinone are achieved at scan rates up to 2.0 V/s. Craig E. Lunte, Thomas H. Ridgway, and William R.

Micelle-Stabilized Room-Temperature Liquid Phosphorimetry of Metal Chelates and Its Application to Niobium Determination 774 Published since 1955, the annual LabGuide leads all others in advertising pages and in reader usage (22,000 references daily). It's the true one-stop buying source where most manufacturers say with their ads, "Here we are. Compare our products with those of our competitors." That's why in more than six out of ten purchases by the 277,000 users it serves, the LabGuide is consulted before the purchase is made.
