Collaboration Aims to Improve Sample Prep Workfl ows for Better Chromatographic Results


Agilent Technologies Inc has announced that it is collaborating with Mettler-Toledo to address error-prone sample preparation. This integrated solution allows the automatic and seamless transfer of weighing results and the associated metadata from Mettler-Toledo LabX™ Balance software to Agilent OpenLab software.


Sample preparation is a critical part of many laboratory workflows. It is a time-consuming bottleneck and a frequent source of errors and inaccuracies that often leads to costly quality investigations or rework. This solution from Agilent and Mettler-Toledo offers a fully automated and digitalised LC or GC workflow designed to eliminate common errors in the weighing process.


The complete solution automatically transfers weighing results to the latest release of Sample Scheduler for Agilent OpenLab CDS. Sample Scheduler retrieves the sample and weight data from the Mettler-Toledo LabX software and allows users to seamlessly route sample and weighing information to any instrument in the laboratory.


“We are pleased to announce this collaboration with Mettler-Toledo,” said Jacob Thaysen, President, Agilent’s Life Sciences and Applied Markets Group. He added: “This new sample preparation workflow not only improves results, but it also offers a truly digital user experience for operating chromatographic instruments -helping our customers build their labs of the future.”


“This is a prime example of how two prevalent vendors of lab equipment have collaborated to address one of the biggest concerns in the laboratory,” said Patrick Kaltenbach, CEO of Mettler-Toledo. “The seamless integration of balances and chromatography instruments in a digital and automated sample preparation and analysis process allows a drastic reduction or even elimination of transcription and calculation errors, significantly increasing lab productivity.”


By addressing one of the biggest, most basic laboratory challenges - transferring weighing results accurately to other lab systems - the Agilent/ Mettler-Toledo solution will accelerate the digital transformation of laboratories.

New High Precision Scale is a Waterproof Wonder


Adam Equipment launches a brand new stainless steel waterproof scale this month, the Aqua ABW S. With precision accuracy as low as 0.1g, the Aqua ABW-S is a durable, dust and washdown-proof solution for labs that need to weigh but also keep their scales and balances hygienic - particularly cleanrooms and clinical labs. The Aqua ABW S’s grade 304 stainless steel casing and sealed keypad, and simple, intuitive functions mean that weighing is straightforward, with reliable results, even when working in damp or dusty environments.


Adam Equipment’s Technical Manager, Karl Tilley, said: “For weighing applications that demand a reliable scale that can withstand getting dusty or wet, IP68 waterproof is generally the best option. For labs, the most important models in the new Aqua ABW S range are the 4kg and 8kg capacity models, which provide 0.1g and 0.5g accuracy respectively.”


Mr Tilley continued: “We have been asked for some time if we can add a waterproof stainless steel scale to our range. It’s a been two years in development, but we wanted to make sure we got it right with the quality, durability as well as gaining that IP68 certification.


“This new scale continues the Adam tradition of easy to use, professional scales and balances that are built to last, making them a sound investment for any lab.”


Overload protection, rechargeable battery and a stabilisation time of just one second are also benefits the Aqua ABW S offers. Plus, just like Adam Equipment’s popular range of laboratory balances, multiple weighing units are available. The Aqua ABW S will be available from most Adam Equipment dealers from the end


of June 2022. More information online: ilmt.co/PL/9zQv

Analytical Balances for Intuitive Weighing


Weighing can hardly get more intuitive: the Ohaus analytical balances stand out for their unsurpassed ease of use, exceptional accuracy and longevity. The Adventurer balances offer amazing versatility and flexibility for even the most demanding routine tasks in the lab and in industry. If you operate in a regulated environment and require full traceability, the Explorer family of analytical and semi-micro balances will keep you on the safe side at audits. Their individually programmable infrared sensors also allow you to perform recurring activities such as automatically opening the doors without contact - and without delay.


Thanks to its temperature sensor, Ohaus’ signature AutoCal automatic internal calibration system ensures that the balance delivers reliable weighing values at all times, even when the ambient temperature changes. Explorer semi-micro balances can even be equipped with an ioniser to minimise static charge. From economical entry-level to high-end balances, you’ll find what you’re looking for at Ohaus.


Benefits include: intuitive operation via icons like on your smartphone: high performance meets ease of use; less lab space needed, thanks to cleverly designed sliding doors and removable touchscreen; maximum data integrity and absolute traceability, thanks to four-level user management, system log and min weight enforcement.

Revolutionising Weighing Accuracy, Productivity and Safety


For labs handling a higher throughput and smaller samples than ever before safety is still important when handling active substances along with accuracy and speed. Mettler-Toledo’s XPR automatic balance’s active machine learning revolutionises weighing to meet your demands.


Automated dispensing of powders and liquids with the XPR Automatic Balance reduces exposure risk while significantly enhancing throughput.


The XPR enables dosing from an enclosed head into containers with diameters as small as six millimetres. The balance’s ability to actively monitor flow characteristics improves dispensing efficiency, while the addition of automatically calculated solvent amount lets you achieve precise concentrations and reduce sample sizes by as much as 30%.


XPR Automatic also supports manual processes and fits easily inside your safety enclosures. Learn how this balance reduces exposure risk, improves efficiency and assures weighing accuracy.
