Researchers at Swansea University have used a Linkam LTS420E-P stage to make temperature dependent measurements on organic photovoltaic (PV) cells, advancing our understanding of the PV cells that are the basis of solar power generation. Researchers at Swansea University, UK, have proven that it is possible to achieve near-unity charge generation quantum yields in organic solar cells...
Transmission electron microscopes (TEMs) have evolved throughout the years to offer ever greater resolution and magnification capabilities. However, for an instrument to work at its best, all external interferences that can affect the position of the electron beam – such as vibrations and stray magnetic fields – need to be removed. Researchers at Cataler Corporation have turned to Spicer Consulting to help them to optimise their equipment for investigations into non-homogeneous catalysts....
Reliable and precise determination of carbon (also TIC and TOC), sulfur, oxygen, nitrogen and hydrogen concentrations as well as ash, moisture and volatile content in organic and inorganic samples is possible with ELTRA’s combustion and thermogravimetric analyzers. The process involves thermal decomposition of a sample with subsequent measurement of the released gases by means of infrared or thermal conductivity cells, or the measurement of the weight loss in thermogravimetry.
Envair, a world leading manufacturer of isolators, laminar flow and microbiological safety cabinets for the healthcare, biotech and pharmaceutical industries, has been awarded a place on the HealthTrust Europe framework. The framework enables healthcare providers to make informed purchasing decisions that support the delivery of exceptional healthcare....
Beckman Coulter, a global clinical diagnostics leader, announces a new partnership with Germany-based company Smart4Diagnostics to close the preanalytical data gap between blood collection and laboratory analysis due to errors that take place before the sample arrives in the laboratory, such as sample collection, patient identification, sample handling, sample transportation, sample loss, etc.
Autoscribe Informatics has released a new case study focusing on how Matrix Gemini LIMS transformed AMS Testing and provided a solid quality framework for its metallurgical testing.
