Laboratory Products 69 Precise and Reliable Laboratory Temperature Controllers


Julabo laboratory temperature controllers perform a wide range of tasks in laboratories. They are perfect for the temperature control of heating mantles and heating collars. For example, they control the temperature of oil baths in combination with distillation or pilot plants. The can also control indirect tap water cooling with a solenoid valve.


Julabo temperature controllers are designed to measure, control and monitor. A display which can be viewed from a long distance away, simple operation, highly precise and reliable control electronics and a wide range of accessories make day-to-day laboratory tasks easier.


The models LC4, LC4-F and LC6 offer a RS232 interface as well as high/low temperature warning and cut-off. In addition to analogue inputs and outputs the model LC4-F features 4 LED displays for actual values and setpoints (separate displays for working and safety circuit). The model LC6 also permits the connection of two working sensors for different measuring points, e.g. for cascade temperature control. Furthermore, the LC6 features a Stakai connection for cooling water control via a solenoid valve and an integrated programmer for 6 x 60 program steps.


27752pr@reply-direct.com Launch of Genuine 2ml Deep Well Plate


Porvair Sciences (UK) has developed the first 96-well round deep well plate that genuinely delivers 2.00 ml liquid capacity / well in an automation compatible SLAS / ANSI footprint. The revolutionary ‘common wall’ design provides a full 2ml round well, round bottom well within a 45mm height limit, thus ensuring full compatibility with most plate handling equipment.


Unlike other ‘2ml’ deep well plates that typically offer just 1.80-1.90ml / well, the new Porvair plate enables labs involved with fraction collecting, compound storage, plate replication and mixing applications the chance to use the full 2.00 ml well capacity without compromise.


Manufactured under class 10,000 conditions from ultra-pure grade polypropylene, Porvair’s new 2.00ml 96-well deep well plates are certified as RNase / DNase free and contain no measurable contaminants that could otherwise leach out and affect the sample. For sterile biological applications, Porvair 2.00ml 96-well deep well plates are available irradiated. A matching thermoplastic elastomer ‘cap mat’ provides easy friction sealing of this new plate for transport, shipping and short-term storage. For longer periods, the new 2.00 ml plate can be heat sealed using Porvair Sciences aluminium or clear heat seals together with the company’s Miniseal IITM thermal sealer to provide a range of peelable, peirceable and re-sealable storage options.


Measuring just 45mm in height - Porvair 2.00ml 96-well deep well plates are compatible with microplate stackers, washers and automated equipment. The new plate design incorporates features that prevent ‘locking’ when stacked and enable easy heat sealing.

Free Stool DNA Extraction Kits with Each LIAISON® difficulties of extracting highly purified DNA from stool samples.


Analysis of DNA from stool samples may be required to identify viral or bacterial pathogens shed in faeces. In addition, analysis of genomic DNA in human stools is a new approach for the detection of colon cancer, designed to identify specific DNA markers in cells that are shed from the lining of the colon through the stool. In addition to purifying viral and bacterial DNA, the LIAISON®


Ixt/Arrow™ Stool DNA


kits have also been validated for the extraction of human DNA from human stool samples and are used for detection of gastrointestinal disease such as Clostridium difficile, Helicobacter pylori, rotavirus and Enterohaemorrhagic Escherichia coli (EHEC).


The consistent extraction of purified DNA from stool samples is inherently difficult due to the complex and variable composition of faeces and the presence of high levels of PCR inhibitors in this matrix. DiaSorin LIAISON® Ixt/Arrow™ Stool DNA extraction kits overcome this problem. Utilising magnetic bead technology these kits rapidly and consistently yield high quality genomic, bacterial and viral DNA, ready for use in PCR and other downstream applications.


Designed for use with the automated DiaSorin LIAISON® Ixt/Arrow™ instruments, the kits perform with high reproducibility. They have been shown to yield high


quality DNA with very low occurrence of PCR inhibitory substances. By automating the purification and DNA extraction process, these kits reduce technician hands-on time and increase sample throughput. They are fast and easy to set up, with all reagents required present in the prefilled cartridges, yielding highly purified DNA from up to 12 faecal samples at a time in less than 50 minutes.


LIAISON® LIAISON®


Ixt/Arrow™ Stool DNA extraction kits form part of a wide range of products available from DiaSorin for the investigation of stool samples, including


Ixt/Arrow™ nucleic acid extraction kits are available for a number of applications, such as: the extraction of RNA or DNA from a variety of sample matrices; the extraction of DNA from blood samples; BUGS’n BEADS for the extraction of nucleic acid from a wide range of pathogens; and cell separation.

New Design Added to Impressive Range of Ductless Fume Cabinets


Building on the success of their Chemcap ductless fume cabinets, Bigneat has introduced a brand new sash door model with the emphasis on operator comfort and safety. By incorporating a simple sliding sash at the front, Bigneat has modified their popular design to make it even easier to use. This, coupled with unrivalled filtration technology, makes the new Chemcap Easyglide Cabinet an invaluable addition to the laboratory.


Bigneat recently manufactured and supplied the first of its new Chemcap Easyglide cabinets to Butterworth Laboratories Ltd. According to Kevin Sweeney, Butterworth’s Facilities Manager and Health & Safety Officer, “Bigneat have always been eager to meet our requirements.” So when Butterworth analysts, developing TLC plates using a reagent delivered by a spray, noticed that their existing cabinets afforded them little protection from solvent fumes, Bigneat was quick to offer a solution. The resultant design is a significant improvement, Kevin observed. “The sash system affords greater protection of the breathing zone and our analysts are now able to see the spray droplets being drawn away from the sash and into the filters.” He added that “the sash door also enables the analyst to easily access the cabinet, aiding the installation of equipment and providing easy access for cleaning.” The additional features, such as the on-board sensor to remind the operator to lower the sash to its working position, Bigneat’s Easyglide cabinet ensures a safer laboratory environment.


As with all the cabinets designs within the Chemcap range, the new Easyglide model has been extensively tested. It benefits from design improvements established in recent model range developments so that more of the carbon media within the carbon filter is utilised. This has resulted in an improvement of 20% in the filter retention of potentially hazardous toxic chemicals.


The range also features an easy-to-use touch-button on/off control panel with incorporated service due indicator and audible low airflow alarm. View of the working area is excellent and makes a cabinet comfortable to use for long periods. An option for all Chemcap cabinets is a bench cupboard/open stand unit which may be fitted with a ‘Services Option’ which includes a swan neck water tap with drip cup and gas tap.
