18 2D-Barcoded NMR Tube Scanner
The Express Scanner from Ziath is an elegant and rapid solution for ensuring the traceability of samples in 2D-barcoded Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) tubes. This new product delivers an industry-leading fast scan and decode time for a full rack of 2D-barcoded NMR sample tubes in under 3 seconds. Traditionally 2D-barcoded NMR tubes are difficult to read with a conventional scanner, as the caps are on the top of the tubes and most scanners are designed to read from underneath.
Working closely with a leading European NMR spectrometry lab, the Express scanner is designed to operate on top of the sample tubes without applying any weight which could damage them. In addition, for Bruker NMR spectrometer users, Ziath provides a dedicated slide for their tube carriers which can only be inserted in one orientation, thereby conserving the origin position (the ‘A1’ position) each time.
The Express Scanner is supplied with a controller which controls scanning and data processing using Ziath industry-standard Datapaq software (version 3.17) or new DP5 web enabled software which enable exporting of tube barcodes in tables, as text, JPEG, XML, XLS files and in JSON formats.
For convenience, and to preserve valuable laboratory bench space, the Express Scanner controller can be separated and positioned under your lab bench. More information online:

Low Field NMR Instrument for Particle Characterisation and Surface Analysis of Dispersions
The Mageleka Magnometer XRS from Sanderson Technology Ltd is a new low-cost instrument for routine analysis of complex solid-liquid and liquid-liquid formulations using non-invasive technology based on NMR liquid relaxation.
In every industrial application a knowledge and understanding of the molecular structure and dynamics at the particle-liquid interface is critical to improving or optimising suspension and emulsion product performance at every stage from initial formulation to final manufacture. The Magnometer XRS provides direct information about the extent and nature of any particle-liquid interface of suspensions and emulsions in a matter of minutes.
Measurements with the Magnometer are simple and easy, the sample is placed into a standard NMR tube and then inserted into the MagnoPod©, the test sequence is then initiated and the result reported in under 2 minutes. An exceptionally wide concentration range of 0.01% to 90+% with small sample size of 0.1mL or less and with little or no sample preparation, the Magnometer is perfect for routine analysis of particles suspended in solvents and melts regardless of shape and size. With no prior NMR experience required, the Magnometer is suitable for chemists, technicians or plant workers. The separate magnet assembly allows for remote or glove box operation, an optional programmable temperature-controlled unit is idea for environments where temperature stability is required. The technique is non-destructive so perfect for long term studies.
Applications include batch-to-batch reproducibility in a manufacturing environment, formulation development, kinetic processes, surfactant and competitive surfactant adsorption, aggregation and flocculation, sedimentation studies, presence of para- and ferro-magnetic impurities, oxygen and water content of solvents, molecular weight of polymers in solution* polymer and solvent viscosity and additive studies.
Industries served include catalyst, pharmaceutical and personal health care providers, paints & pigments, ceramics and refractories, agro chemicals, cosmetics, batteries, electronics, nano medicine and graphene/graphene oxides.

Extended Capability and Power for High-Resolution Mass Spectrometers Announced
Waters Corporation has announced a new fragmentation technique and an imaging option for its high-resolution mass spectrometers giving research scientists working across a broad range of end markets including biomedical, biopharmaceutical and food research, greater experimental freedom to explore the intricacies of peptides, proteins, and protein complexes.
“This is a time for science to step up and show what it can do for humanity,” said James Langridge, PhD, Senior Director, Advanced Mass Spectrometry, Waters Corporation. “Understanding the biology of disease and discovering new treatments requires us to continue innovating new and powerful capabilities for mass spectrometry so that scientists can accurately and confidently answer their scientific questions.”
For its high-performance SELECT SERIES™ Cyclic™ IMS System, Waters will offer scientists the ability to probe the structure of proteins, peptides, glycans and other biomolecules with Electron Capture Dissociation (ECD), a fragmentation technique made available through a partnership with e-MSion, Inc.
ECD combined with ion mobility mass spectrometry and Collision Induced Dissociation (CID) available with the Cyclic IMS System, gives scientists improved sequence coverage for native proteins and surrogate peptides and additional structural information about larger proteins that might not have been possible before.
For the first time, the new Desorption Electrospray Ionization DESI XS source is available on the Waters SELECT SERIES Cyclic IMS, SYNAPT™ XS, and Xevo™ G2-XS QTof Mass Spectrometers. Waters acquired the rights to DESI™ IP from Prosolia, Inc. and the Purdue Research Foundation in 2018, making Waters the exclusive provider of this technology. The new Waters DESI XS source retains the performance of the original version and features enhanced reliability and user experience, making high quality MS imaging accessible to a broader range of scientists.
The ECD and DESI XS options for the SELECT SERIES Cyclic IMS System will ship in the fourth quarter of this year. Existing Waters Cyclic IMS customers will also be able to add these new options to their instruments at the same time. DESI XS is now available to ship with new Xevo G2-XS QTof and SYNAPT XS Systems. It is also available as an upgrade option for previously installed Xevo G2-XS QTof and SYNAPT XS systems.

Vacuum Ultraviolet Spectroscopy Workstation
McPherson is pleased to announce the availability of two new deep UV spectroscopy workstation’s intending to facilitate teaching and experimentation in vacuum and ultraviolet physics. The workstations are ideal for spectroscopy experiments in the vacuum ultraviolet regime, potentially advancing quantum information science and engineering. Spectroscopy was central to the development of quantum mechanics, including blackbody radiation and Einstein’s photoelectric effect.
There are two experimental kits available, diagnostic and analytical. The diagnostic system equips the spectrometer with a sensitive CCD detector. Use it to measure spectral emission of laser interaction, high harmonic generation, plasma formation, luminescence, fluorescence and so on. The analytical system comes with a tunable deep UV light source, rather than the CCD detector, and is ready to explore one of the earliest predictions of quantum physics, Einstein’s photoelectric effect. The configuration is also good for measuring transmission, photocathode response, and reflection.
Key features of these workstations include a versatile and easy to use spectrometer, filters, open concept high-vacuum sample chamber with built in optical breadboard, and easy to use vacuum pumping system. Systems may also have a deep UV light source and/or sensitive CCD detector. Students and experienced experimentalists will have more time to consider setups and interpret results when using these systems. In addition to optical characterisation, perform basic physics experiments that explore the field of quantum behaviours useful for very practical technologies like quantum cryptography. More science means more engagement while also learning the fundamentals of laboratory setups.
The McPherson spectroscopy workstations allow users to assemble a complete system and design interesting experiments. Very complex systems can be constructed by blending diagnostic and analytical system components or by adding parts of your own design. System flanges are compatible with a range of commercial and readily available parts. These systems may be optionally mounted on tables and shipped turnkey, ready for your experiments.
