1260 Infinity II LC System

The 1260 Infinity II LC System is a robust HPLC that offers the widest choice of modules for analytical HPLC and entry-level UHPLC, delivering the performance, reliability, and robustness you need for highest confidence in your daily results.

Building on the history of the 1100 and 1200 series analytical HPLC, the 1260 Infinity II LC delivers robust HPLC results while delivering several ease-of-use features, making it the standard system for routine analysis. Mix and match new modules with existing instrumentation to maximize uptime and minimize disruption.

FreeZone 2.5 Liter Benchtop Freeze Dryer

The FreeZone 2.5 Liter Benchtop Freeze Dryer is designed for light sample loads or personal use. Compact design with small footprint fits in tight spaces. Powder-coated steel exterior. Upright stainless steel collector coil removes a maximum of 2 liters of water in 24 hours and holds 2.5 liters of ice before defrosting is necessary.

DAWN light scattering detector for SEC-MALS

The DAWN and its companion Optilab® dRI detector are the established benchmarks for MALS analysis, cited in thousands of peer-reviewed publications. Multi-angle light scattering detection is indispensable for use with GPC and HPLC-SEC in order to obtain reliable molecular mass distributions and information on molecular conformation, branching ratio, fragments and aggregates.

TA Instrument HR-2 Discovery Hybrid Rheometer

The new Discovery Series Hybrid Rheometer (DHR) represents the latest technological breakthroughs from the world leader in rheology. It combines a patented advanced drag cup motor, a second-generation magnetic bearing, force rebalance transducer (FRT), and the new patent-pending True Position Sensor (TPS) in a single-head Hybrid rheometer. The DHR has unprecedented performance specification and delivers unsurpassed direct strain control, direct stress control, and normal force measurement accuracy.

Skyscan 1172 X-ray Microtomography

The Skyscan 1172, 50mm FOV (image field width) is a desktop ex vivo microCT specimen scanner. This instrument has a fully distortion- corrected 11Mp X-ray camera that is a 12-bit cooled CCD fiber-optically camera coupled to scintillator. The X-ray source is 20-100kV, 10W, with a <5μm spot size. The detail detectability is 1μm at highest resolution to 25μm. Importantly, the Skyscan 1172 has an innovative dynamically variable acquisition geometry that provides the shortest scan times possible at any magnification (adaptive geometry features explained more fully below). Cross-section images are generated in a wide range of formats up to 8000 x 8000 pixels. The maximum object size is 50mm in diameter or height. Reconstruction can be performed using either a single PC or using the cluster of 4-PCs in the core facility to enhance post-scan reconstruction times. Importantly, the Skyscan 1172 has PC windows-based software for 2D/3D image analysis, bone morphometry and realistic visualization, making it accessible for use on investigators’ home and laboratory computers.
