Product news

PEAK Scientific Instruments has announced that its Genius range of nitrogen gas generators for LC-MS have been certified with an Accountability, Consistency and Transparency (ACT®) Ecolabel from My Green Lab®. With this certification, laboratories with an active Genius product can access independently verified environmental impact data, covering key sustainability metrics related to manufacturing, energy and water use, packaging, and end-of-life considerations.

The ACT Ecolabel was designed to address the need of both scientists and procurement specialists for consistent, clear, third-party verified information about the environmental impact of laboratory products.

Having recently undergone a carbon impact audit of its headquarters and manufacturing operation, the ACT Ecolabel is the next step in PEAK Scientific's ongoing efforts to improve the sustainability of its lab gas products.

With a growing focus on sustainable practices within the analytical science sector and as an ethical supplier to analytical laboratories around the world, PEAK Scientific wanted to provide its customers and industry partners with the level of transparency the ACT Ecolabel program provides.

PEAK Scientific’s Group Commercial and Transformation Director, Michelle McGavin, said, “We are so proud to be able to announce ACT Ecolabel certification for our Genius products. It is a rigorous process and involving nearly every part of our organisation as well as My Green Lab and their third-party verifiers. That third party verification being extremely important in providing tangible credibility to the labels – it’s more than just our claims; it’s independently verified data".

Mass SpectrometryMass spectrometry (MS) is a powerful analytical technique used to identify and quantify molecules based on the mass-to-charge ratio of gas-phase ions. It provides detailed information about the structure, composition, and properties of compounds and is widely used across fields such as environmental monitoring, materials science, drug discovery and development, food and beverage testing, and wider chemical research. Key MS techniques include tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS), liquid chromatography–mass spectrometry (LS-MS) and inductively coupled plasma (ICP-MS). Choosing from these wide range of techniques and technologies can be a daunting task, so keep up to date with scientific applications, performance expectations, and customer reviews here all in one place.

Gas ChromatographyGas chromatography (GC) is an analytical technique used to separate and quantitate mixtures of small and volatile compounds. Gas chromatographs or GC systems include components such as GC columns, detectors, pumps and autosamplers. Choose from packed or capillary GC columns, flame ionization (FID), photoionization (PID) electron capture detectors and selective or non-selective detectors.
