Advanced Elemental Analysis with New ICP-MS for Environmental, Materials and Consumer Safety Applications
New atomic spectroscopy platform offers advanced, user-friendly parts- per-trillion range detection capability for a diverse range of applications
PerkinElmer (USA) announce the European launch of the NexION™ 300 Inductively Coupled Plasma-Mass Spectrometer (ICP-MS) for elemental analysis at Analytica 2010, March 23-26, 2010, Hall A2, stand 401.
“The NexION 300 platform advances trace element analysis, and its introduction is perfectly timed to help address global problems ranging from contamination of our air, water and food to the integrity of pharmaceuticals and nutritional supplements, as well as the safety of emerging nanomaterials,” explained Martin Long, vice president, spectroscopy, PerkinElmer.
He added, “Researchers can now benefit from a simplified system for analysis of trace elements in the parts-per-trillion range, allowing even non-expert users to perform complex analyses. The new NexION 300 system also greatly reduces the need for daily user maintenance and cleaning, translating into minimal downtime and less need for highly-skilled operators."
The NexION 300 instrument features patented Universal Cell Technology™ (UCT) and is the only instrument of its kind with three modes of interference removal - Standard, Collision and Reaction. These three modes allow scientists to choose the appropriate technique for their particular application, based on the complexity of the problem to be solved.
NexION’s Standard mode can be used for simple and routine analyses. Collision mode is effective for semi-quantitative analyses, environmental sample monitoring and testing unknown samples. Reaction mode, using patented DRC™ technology, provides the best detection limits available, for even the most difficult elements and matrices such as semiconductor testing.
The NexION 300 system can be integrated with chromatography systems for effective speciation analysis to enable customers to accurately separate and measure the toxicity, bioavailability, metabolism and environmental mobility of elements.

Safe Removal of Highly Inflammable Solvent Vapours
Available from Genevac (UK) the EZ-2 personal evaporator with inert gas purge module is a proven fail-safe system for safely removing highly inflammable liquids that may form an explosive mixture with air.
The EZ-2 can safely remove most organic solvents without forming an explosive mixture of organic vapour and air. However to meet the requirements of the ATEX directives relating to safe removal of highly inflammable solvent vapours it is now mandatory to use an evaporator such as the EZ-2 with inert gas purge module.

To eliminate the risk of forming explosive organic vapour / air mixtures, the Inert Gas Purge option purges the air from the evaporator using an inert gas prior to commencing the evaporation process. It is at the beginning of the evaporation process where most risk of explosion exists. The inert gas purge unit is supplied with a key switch enabling the Laboratory Manager to lock the system thereby forcing all users to use the facility.
The inert gas purge option can also be useful where an inert atmosphere is required to help protect dry samples from moisture and/or oxygen exposure at the end of the evaporation process. The inert gas purge module controls gases entering the evaporator, therefore at the end of the evaporation process, instead of releasing the vacuum by letting air into the chamber, inert gas is introduced instead. The inert gas atmosphere is then maintained until the user opens the system to claim their dry samples.

Omega’s (UK) new CE compliant OM-80 series of data loggers and readers are economical, accurate and provide a reliable solution for cold chain environmental monitoring. The OM-84 model features a miniature weather-resistant design with a factory replaceable battery. Each logger can store up to 10,000 readings and is reusable. Stored data can be downloaded and saved to your computer using the reader and software that is included. Each package of data loggers comes with a traceable certificate (No Points). Built-in LEDs display high and low alarm verification indicating whether or not measured temperatures have remained within the user programmable alarm window throughout deployment. This product is ideal for produce, seafood, dairy, supermarkets or any applications where temperature monitoring is needed.
