A diffraction grating is used to separate polychromatic light into its constituent wavelengths. In a Raman spectrometer diffraction gratings are used to separate the constituent wavelengths of the collected Raman scatter onto different pixels of the CCD camera for detection. All Raman spectrometers will require at least one diffraction grating and will frequently be configured to contain more than one to allow the user optimum grating selection for their samples and excitation wavelength(s).
Global provider of human and animal biospecimens - AMSBIO offers a custom procurement service enabling researchers to source specific biofluid and tissue samples which are not already available in their extensive biorepository. To support increasingly complex research, AMSBIO aims to provide a full range of blood-based products, including whole blood, serum, plasma, blood and peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs)....
YMC-Triart C18 UHPLC columns with an ID of 1 mm are the ideal choice for high sensitivity LC/MS analyses. In this new application note, the screening of 6 antineoplastic drugs is shown. This analysis requires the highest sensitivity since even the smallest amounts of these drugs need to be detected due to their adverse very serious, life-threatening effects. By choosing a high efficiency column with a small internal diameter of 1 mm and coupling it to mass spectrometry the benefit becomes clear: excellent peak shapes – also for low sensitivity compounds!

PerkinElmer, Inc., a global leader committed to innovating for a healthier world, has announced that the performance of its SARS-CoV-2 RT-PCR assays are not impacted by the emergence of Omicron (B.1.1.529), a variant of concern that was recently identified by the World Health Organization (WHO). There are more than 30 Omicron mutations reported in the S gene of SARS-CoV-2. PerkinElmer’s assays do not target the S gene for SARS-CoV-2 detection and are not affected by these S gene mutations...
BASE is the name British autoclave manufacturer Priorclave has given to the first in a new range of research and laboratory grade autoclave categories that will be officially launched later this year. All Base range autoclaves may be seen as ‘basic’ entry level machines, but they are far more with each standard model offering more features and benefits than previously available. The Base range is ideally suited for laboratories that run just a few sterilizing cycles each day....
