Testa Analytical Solutions e.K reports that its Nanobrook ZetaPALS zeta potential analyser is uniquely optimised to make sensitive and precise measurements in both organic and aqueous media. Typically making zeta potential measurements in organic (non polar) solvents requires much higher sensitivity than in aqueous (polar) solutions. The Nanobrook ZetaPALS analyser achieves this using phase analysis light scattering...
Labs can have a fragrance which is characteristic of a build-up of trace vapours. Ideally, the lab should not smell; however, in an environment in which automated analysis equipment continuously runs, the likelihood of organic chemical and reagent volatiles leaking increases. This concoction of substances in the air can not only be a fire and explosion risk, but can also be harmful to health. VapLock closed systems make it easy to improve laboratory safety by reducing exposure to vapors and hazardous solvent waste.
Restek has expanded its line of LC accessories to bring you even more of what you need to keep your LC flowing.
