Software Assists Precise Flow Monitoring
Oven Range Provides Flexibility and Unrivalled Performance
Designed to meet the increasing demands of today’s laboratory and process facility, OP Series Ovens from LTE Scientific are widely regarded to represent excellent value for money as they combine outstanding reliability and build quality.
Operating within a temperature range of 40 - 250°C, the OP range offers extremely fast heat up times, almost undetectable over- shoot and superb accuracy. Set and actual temperatures are digitally displayed and to ensure sample safety, a manual reset over- temperature cut out (meeting IEC1010-2-010) has been incorporated.
Available Sizes: 60, 100, 150 & 250-litres. Each oven is coated in anti-bacterial epoxy powder to protect against the growth and migration of bacteria. All models are available with either fan circulation or natural convection, adjustable vent and a choice of PID control systems to suit most applications.
This ranges from a single temperature set-point controller, through to a multi-program option, which stores up to eight multiple step cycles in the memory. This includes a ramp function which controls the temperature rise and fall rates. The program can be stopped, repeated for a specified number of times or continued until interrupted, and in the event of a power failure the product has an automatic recovery function.
Testa Analytical has introduced version 1.4 of its flowmeter software for continuous monitoring of liquid flow from an analytical or preparative HPLC system, peristaltic pump, flow chemistry system or mass spectrometer.
Operating in conjunction with the Testa Liquid Chromatography flowmeter the easy-to-use PC software app enables fast, simple experimental set-up and provides full control of device settings including integration time and calibration factor.
The software app will also report average and minimum/ maximum values of the measured flow. All flow data is automatically stored in files that can be processed later using almost any commercial data analysis package.
Conveniently powered via a USB connection, the compact Testa Liquid Chromatography flowmeter uses a thermal sensor that provides extremely accurate, sensitive, and high-resolution measurement of flow in real time. As the sensor is non-invasive it can operate over a wide dynamic range and has been demonstrated to be the perfect real- time flow monitoring tool for a growing range of liquid applications.

Microplate Optimised for Magnetic Bead Separations
Porvair Sciences has introduced a 96-well deep well microplate designed for labs using magnetic beads for nucleic acid purification, clean up and protein purifications.
The 96-well magnetic bead separation plate has a reinforced base that can be routinely centrifuged at up to 6,000x g enabling faster magnetic bead separation protocols and improved sample quality.
Manufactured in a class 10,000 cleanroom facility from ultra-pure grade polypropylene, the magnetic bead separation plate contains the lowest possible level of leachable contaminants and is certified as RNase/DNase free to minimise any impact on bioassays. Combining round well architecture with ‘U’ bottom and a large working volume (2.0 ml per well) this specialist deep well plate offers improved mixing, pelleting and washing of a wide range of magnetic beads. The cylindrical wells with round bottoms also ensure optimal recovery of sample.
Offering high chemical and temperature resistance (-196°C to +121°C) the design of these new plates also includes alphanumeric well coding for easy sample tracking and raised well rims to enable easy, high integrity sealing.

New Technology Upgrades the Spatial Resolution of Two-photon Excitation Fluorescence Microscopy
Ideal for high-precision observations of deep regions in biological samples, this technology from Hamamatsu Photonics will become an indispensable tool for understanding brain functions. This was achieved through intensive research efforts using the company’s spatial light modulators (SLM) and their unique optical control technology fostered over many years.
Applying results from this research will easily enhance the resolution of two-photon excitation microscopes equipped with an SLM. This new microscopy technique is being put to practical use across a broad range of fields including neuroscience and biology. It allows for detailed measurements of deep regions in biological samples and highly accurate observations of changes in the state of organelles that make up cells. This makes it a promising tool for applications in research on brain functions, kidney disease and other illnesses.
The results from this research were published on 20 April in the leading scientific journal on neuroscience ‘Frontiers in Neuroscience’. Results were achieved by a joint research effort with a laboratory endowed for Biophotonics Innovation and from a course on Virology and Parasitology offered at the Hamamatsu University School of Medicine.

Control Module for Heated and Cooled Flow Chemistry Applications
The Uniqsis Polar Bear Plus Flow™ is a compact, state of the art temperature control module, that can be used as a standalone unit or integrated with a flow reactor, for both heated and cooled flow chemistry applications.
Utilising highly efficient, compressor-based cooling and heating technology the Polar Bear Plus Flow™ can precisely and reliably maintain reactor temperatures anywhere between -40?C and +150?C. The module is easy to use and is completely self-contained, requiring only an electricity supply for operation - no more need for solvents, refrigerants, or messy heat transfer fluids.
The Polar Bear Plus Flow™ can also be integrated with a FlowSyn™ flow chemistry system or used as a heating/cooling unit as part of a FlowLab or FlowLab Plus modular flow chemistry system.
To achieve high reproducibility and facilitate reaction scale-up, precise control of mixing and temperature is essential. This is particularly important for highly exothermic or fast, mixing-dependent reactions. The Polar Bear Plus Flow™ is fully compatible with Uniqsis glass static mixer (GSM) reactor chips that ensure an efficient, turbulent mixed reagent stream that is not diffusion dependent. Uniqsis provide an adapter which fits to the top of the Polar Bear Plus Flow allowing a range of smaller volume GSM’s to be used in the adapter.
