Product news

Metrohm launches the 894 Professional CVS, a new, compact measuring stand for monitoring additives in electroplating baths by cyclic voltammetric stripping (CVS). Revolutionary design and the powerful new viva software make the 894 Professional CVS the new benchmark in CVS.

Due to the 894 Professional CVS’ entirely modular design, any customized system configuration is possible, from a manually operated measuring stand to a fully automated system for processing large sample series 24/7.

The new viva software implements the most important applications for monitoring key parameters in electroplating:
• Suppressor determination with DT (Dilution Titration)
• Brightener determination with MLAT (Modified Linear Approximation Technique)
• Brightener determination with LAT (Linear Approximation Technique)
• Leveler determination with RC (Response Curve)
• Chronopotentiometry (CP) (Galvanostatic, Open-circuit potential (OCP)

viva makes the 894 Professional CVS a powerful tool for method development, as it gives users unlimited access to all operational parameters. Hence, users may develop their own methods adding command by command on the graphic user interface following the sequence of steps of the respective application.

viva supports the user with a unique range of features for more ease of use and reliability of measurements and results:
• Plausibility checks
• Control charts
• Report creation
• «History» function for comprehensive retrieval of determinations
• Central data management (client-server version)
• Data export (to LIMS, QM systems)
• Sophisticated security and user administration

ElectrophoresisElectrophoresis equipment is used to separate mixtures of protein, DNA or RNA, based on their electric charge, size and other physical characteristics, by passing them through a medium such as a polyacrylamide gel, an agarose gel or a capillary tube. Electrophoresis equipment includes horizontal and vertical gel electrophoresis chambers, isoelectric focusing systems, 2D electrophoresis and capillary electrophoresis instruments. Precast gels with a gradient can be used or gels can be hand cast. Samples are run alongside ladders or markers to identify the approximate size of a molecule. Separated proteins and nucleic acids in the gel can be stained or probed with fluorescent markers and then imaged and detected using gel documentation instruments, transilluminators, densitometers and scanners. Find the best electrophoresis equipment in our peer-reviewed product directory: compare products, check customer reviews and receive pricing direct from manufacturers.Data AnalysisData analysis hardware and software is available to make data processing straight-forward yet powerful. Data software can be used for math and stats, technical graphing and image analysis. In addition, software is available for specific data analysis of electrophoresis, densitometry, ELISA and DNA sequencing.Automated Liquid HandlingAutomated liquid handling equipment is used to mix, dilute and dispense allotted volumes of liquid into microplates and other vessels automatically. The robotic, liquid handling arms can dispense from single channel to 3456 multichannel as well as operate nanoliter dispensing, enabling high throughput of samples.
