High Quality Assays with Reproducible and Reliable Results

ColorQuest® XE is a color measurement spectrophotometer at an economical price. It can be used in production or in the laboratory for inspecting raw materials and evaluating finished product. Use it to measure opaque, transparent and translucent solids and liquids for properties such as reflected color, opacity, strength, transmitted color, APHA and haze. Solid samples are easily positioned and supported at the reflectance por…

Consolidating your laboratory services with one provider makes excellent business sense. You get one service contract instead of 20 or more for your instruments. You can locate any piece of equipment instantaneously and track every critical event, such as an instrument’s next scheduled service. Efficiencies of scale help you control lab costs and optimize lab operations. OneSource, our consolidated instrument service, is unpar…

The Finnigan vMALDI Ion Source system provides fast, automated MS and Data Dependent MS/MS analysis of digested protein mixtures in a single, rapid experiment. While LC/MS analysis times are typically 30 to 60 minutes, using the Finnigan LTQ with the vMALDI ion source generally requires less than a minute per sample enabling high throughput protein identification. Production: The Finnigan vMALDI Ion Source Thermo's new F…

PathXL™ TMA is perfectly designed to support TMA scoring workflow and already used by pathologists worldwide, the system allows configuration of experiments in minutes. Access and view clinical metadata, the TMA core, scoring criteria and the TMA map all on a single interfac…

The IDS-iSYS combines 50 years of instrumentation engineering experience with world-respected assay development skills into a compact, benchtop system that fully automates testing of the most challenging calcium, bone, growth and hypertension markers. Uncompromised Efficiency • Full, walk-away automation • Compact, benchtop design • Continuous loading with Batch, Random, and STAT flexibility • Easy operation with auto start-up…

Highly accurate micro area residual stress with both iso- and side-inclination methods. In the past, if you wanted to make highly accurate residual stress measurements, you had to use an R&D diffractometer because of the accuracy of the goniometer. However this restricts the weight and size of the samples you can measure. On the other hand, dedicated laboratory and factory-floor residual stress analyzers suffer from reduced a…

The MicroMax-003 is a third generation microfocus sealed tube X-ray generator for X-ray diffraction and crystallography. It is the perfect X-ray source for someone who wants the benefits of a microfocus X-ray source (low power consumption and long tube life) without the added maintenance that goes along with a more powerful rotating anode microfocus X-ray source.It consists of a tightly coupled microfocus generator and specia…

A 38µm soft non-permeable aluminum foil sealing film with strong medical grade adhesive, AlumaSeal II™ sealing films eliminate the need for heat-sealing devices or mats during thermal cycling. Compared to other aluminum foils, AlumaSeal II™ has less tendency to roll back on itself when removing the backing paper and conforms well to the plate during applications. •   Easily pierceable with single or multi-channel pipettors and…

The 6875 Freezer/Mill® is a large cryogenic mill that accommodates sample sizes ranging from 0.1 - 100 grams. Specifically designed for cryogenic grinding and pulverizing tough and/or temperature sensitive samples in a grinding vial immersed in liquid nitrogen. The new high resolution display is user-friendly and shows the each stage of the grinding process. It also shows the Run history, Training videos and manuals and a…

The 6875D Freezer/Mill® is a high-throughput, dual chamber cryogenic grinder with a self-contained liquid nitrogen tub and insulated case. Specifically designed for cryogenic grinding and pulverizing of tough and/or temperature sensitive samples in a grinding vial immersed in liquid nitrogen. This mill chills samples in liquid nitrogen then pulverizes them with a magnetically driven impactor. The new high resolution displa…

The VersaMAP Development System offers our widest selection of potential analytes for Luminex-based multiplexing. The diluent supplied is suitable for most cell culture supernate samples. Samples with complex matrices, such as serum and plasma, may need further optimization. For multiplex kits validated by R&D Systems for use in complex matrices, please see our Fluorokine® MAP products. VersaMAP Development System product data…

Fluorokine MAP Kits for the Luminex platform are highly efficient multiplex assays that have been validated for the quantification of factors in complex matrices and require little or no optimization. For a wider selection of analytes, please see our VersaMAP™ line of development kits validated for use with cell culture supernatants. Features Simultaneously detect multiple analytes Requires small sample volume (Undergoes simil…

The VersaMAP™ Magnetic Custom Multiplex Kits are our most efficient Luminex-based multiplex assays. These homogeneous, no wash assays utilize analyte-specific antibodies conjugated to superparamagnetic microparticles to simultaneously detect up to 25 user-defined phosphorylated receptor tyrosine kinases (RTKs) in a single sample. Available Kits VersaMAP Magnetic Human RTK Kit A VersaMAP Magnetic Human RTK Kit B Features • Comp…

The quality of sequence obtained from Next Generation sequencing platforms such as Illumina, Inc. requires the accurate determination of input library DNA. Loading too much DNA can lead to overlapping clusters and loss of read counts whereas too little input can lead to poor read lengths and lower sequence output. The PureGenome™ NGS Library Validator Kit measures the absolute amount of adapter-ligated, sequence ready DNA in I…
