New Products 384-Well Microplates
PerkinElmer Inc. offers CellCarrier™ Ultra 384-well microplates, which are designed specifically for high-content screening (HCS). The improved plate design results in higher- quality image data and more robust results from
HCS applications (such as phenotypic screening and 3-D disease model studies). The plates are black and precisely engineered to have an extremely flat surface for efficient imaging. They are made using cyclic olefin, a plastic that has glass-like optical properties, to provide a clearer image.

The Huber Minichiller saves approx. 48.000 L of water per work week (8 hr/day, 5 days/week) and offers a fast return on investment, which can be measured in months. The compact water supply system is designed as a space-saving tower; with a footprint of 225 × 360 mm, it uses less bench space than many laptops. With a temperature range from –20 °C to +40 °C and cooling capacity of 300 W at 15
°C, Minichillers are suitable for cooling reaction blocks, vapor traps, vacuum pump condensers, rotary evaporators, or heat exchangers, supplying predictable and correct pressure, flow, and temperature.
www.huber-online.com Filtration Device for Bioburden Testing
The EZ-Fit™ filtration unit from EMD Millipore is a ready- to-use, disposable filtration device for bioburden testing. It is more efficient than traditional methods, resulting in increased reliability and streamlined workflows. The unit, which conforms to international standards (USP/EP) and water testing regulations, can be used for filtration of liquid samples including water, raw materials, in-process samples, and final products. The shape of the funnel and the plastic material minimize sample residue to ensure that the complete sample volume reaches the membrane surface.

The OneSight high-speed detector from Shimadzu Scientific Instruments is for use with XRD-6100/7000 X-ray diffractometers. The OneSight achieves high-sensitivity analysis, more than 100 times higher than scintillation detectors. The silicon detector features 1280 channels, which enables a wide range of diffraction angles to be measured at once for higher throughput. By using specified diffraction peaks, the detector is also useful for quantitative and stress analysis. Its ONE SHOT function allows a simultaneous diffraction profile measurement at a more than 10° angle range without a scanning goniometer.
www.ssi.shimadzu.com Body Composition Analyzer
The highly accurate and durable Competitor Series body composition analyzer (BCA) from Rice Lake Weighing Systems is configured in three different models: D-1000-3 Full Body, D-1000-2 Upper, and D-1000-1 Lower. Each comes with a built- in thermal printer with auto-cut that immediately produces identifying information, a breakdown of the analysis, and a breakdown of the segmental analysis. Users can get more in- depth results by adding on Body Pass™ software to maximize health data management.
www.ricelakehealth.com Solutions for Regulation of Hexavalent Chrome
Metrohm offers new CrVI packages featuring the 900 series Ion Chromatography systems, with guaranteed methods that easily exceed the proposed limits of 10 ppb and identify levels down to ultratrace parts per trillion. The 930 IC Flex is a dedicated analyzer configured for U.S. EPA Method 218.7 and the analysis of CrVI in drinking water, while the 940 Professional IC Vario can be expanded to include U.S. EPA 300 (anions), U.S. EPA 314 (perchlorate), and ASTM D6919 (cations) in series or parallel.
www.metrohmusa.com Embryoid Body Formation Kit
The Cultrex® embryoid body (EB) formation kit (catalog number 3550-096-K) from Trevigen generates embryoid bodies that are consistent, reproducible, and identical in size. It has been qualified to form EBs from human pluripotent stem cells (hESCs and iPSCs). The kit includes ROCK Inhibitor Y-27632, which significantly increases survival of PSCs in single cell culture; a specialized EB Formation Matrix to stimulate cell aggregation and development of EB; and a 96-well EB formation plate, which allows for control of the EB size and shape.
