New look for Whitehouse standards at Powtech 2007

30 Jan 2007

Product news

Whitehouse Scientific will unveil an attractive and highly practical new look for the company’s microsphere standards at Powtech 2007 (27-29 March 07; Nűrnberg, Germany) as it introduces a new packaging design throughout its extensive product range.

The presentation of the standards has been completely updated with the introduction of new, more durable plastic bottles, individually held in foam and supplied in a clear plastic display case. At the associated Partec conference Dr Graham Rideal, managing director of Whitehouse Scientific, will also present a paper on the use of Whitehouse standards for image analysis.

Whitehouse Scientific has been producing glass microspheres for calibration for 24 years. The company is the highest ranking European certification laboratory for primary methods of particle size analysis and the world’s leading manufacturer of single-shot glass microsphere standards. The reference standards, nearly all of which are NIST traceable, range in size from 0.1 µm to 5.0 mm and are available as single size or broad distributions. Whitehouse also offers a unique calibration procedure for NIST-traceable measurement of filter apertures.

Dr Rideal and members of the Whitehouse team will be available on the Whitehouse Scientific stand Hall 8/201 at Powtech 2007 to discuss individual calibration requirements.
