ANALYTICAL CHEMISTRY
The Thermox Meter for oxygen and in ert gas work is calibrated logarith mically in two ranges—from air com position up to 100% oxygen and down to 0.1 ppm. Response time is 0.01 sec ond. A hot ceramic cell potentiometrically compares the oxygen partial pres sure of the test gas with that of air to produce a voltage proportional to the logarithm of this ratio. The measure ment is therefore independent of both flow rate and total system pressure. Thermo-Lab Instruments, Inc., 1312 William Flynn Highway (Route 8), Glenshaw, Pa. 15116 410
TLC Photocopier
A dry-process technique is employed to provide permanent records of TLC chromatograms. The plate and a sheet of photocopy paper are placed on the copier and exposed for a predetermined length of time. After exposure, the print is developed by placing it in a conventional TLC tank saturated with ammonia vapor. A mirror image of the chromatogram results.

Small Scale Digital Computer
Model MDP-1000 is designed to pro vide an unusual versatility of applica tions in real time situations. Features include a wide variety of input/output options, a 4,096-word random access memory (expandable to 16K) with a cycle time of 2.16 ^sec, six program mable 12-bit registers, parallel adder, two accumulators, and a priority inter rupt system. A technique called "shared command" permits the use of 8-bit memory words and 12-bit register words in such a way that only one 8-bit word of memory, corresponding to a 12-bit instruction of in-line coding, is required to specify an instruction.
