Laboratory Products 23 PCR Cycler wins German Design Award 2018
Amplifying nucleic acids for further downstream processing is a cornerstone of modern molecular biology and medical research. This temperature dependent process needs utmost precision in temperature control. At the same time, the procedure needs to be as fast as possible, i.e. temperature changes need to be facilitated at high speeds.
The Mastercycler X50 from Eppendorf combines the capabilities of high speed (Heating of 10°C/s) with utmost precision (±0.15°C). High speeds, especially in cooling, can be supported by large heat sinks and strong ventilation. However, large footprints and strong ventilation noises need to be avoided in molecular biology labs. Thus, product design features like ventilating from front to back (and not to the sides where other instruments can be placed) and including powerful heat sinks in small footprints have to be brought to perfection.
The German Design Award 2018 acknowledges and honours Eppendorf’s strive for perfection in designing the Mastercycler X50. The highly esteemed and independent jury values unique design trends and pioneering contributions to the product design landscape.

New Ball Mill for High Energy Milling Announced
With the new Emax Retsch has developed an entirely new type of ball mill for high energy milling. The unique combination of high friction and impact results in extremely fi ne particles within the shortest amount of time. The high energy input is a result of an unrivalled speed of 2000 min-1
and the innovative jar design. Thanks
to the revolutionary water cooling system, the high energy input is effectively used for the grinding process without overheating the sample. Due to the special grinding jar geometry, the sample is thoroughly mixed which results in a narrow particle size distribution.
Unlike other high energy ball mills, the Emax is capable of continuous grinding operation without interruptions for cooling down. This dramatically reduces the grinding time. The high energy input in combination with the unique cooling system provides perfect conditions for effective mechanical alloying or grinding down to the nanometer range.
A wealth of safety features such as the integrated safety closure of the grinding jar, temperature control with automatic start/stop system, and integrated imbalance
controls make operation of the bench-top mill Emax very user-friendly. More information can be found at

Collaboration to Advance Biomanufacturing Technologies for Crop Protection Products Announced
Ingenza has reached a major technical milestone with Syngenta in their collaboration to develop effi cient manufacturing technologies for innovative crop protection products. Ingenza’s leadership in industrial biotechnology and synthetic biology has been validated by this application of key microbial gene maintenance and expression technologies which will now be further developed by Syngenta. The collaboration capitalises on Ingenza’s proprietary inABLE suite of capabilities in gene expression, microbial strain improvement and bioprocess scale up.
Dr Ian Fotheringham, Managing Director at Ingenza said “We are delighted by the results of our collaboration with Syngenta. Ingenza’s innovative technologies add signifi cant value to further support Syngenta’s leading position in agricultural biotechnology. Ingenza looks forward to establishing an exceptional partnership with Syngenta, working together to enhance global agriculture and food security.
Dr Paul Oeller, Head of Technology Acquisition at Syngenta said “There are signifi cant challenges associated with fi nding new technologies to feed the world’s population and we are always looking to work with external technology providers to achieve these goals. It has been a pleasure working with the Ingenza team. The collaborative and innovative culture shared between the Ingenza and Syngenta teams has made this collaboration a success. We are excited about the next phase of work to further evaluate the technology.”
