Product news

Thermo Fisher Scientific Inc., have announced that it will be showcasing a range of its newest products at Biotechnica in Hannover, Germany from 6 – 8 October, 2009. On display will be a selection of laboratory equipment and consumables targeted to help researchers accelerate their cell discovery applications:

• The new Thermo Scientific Waterbook not only details the diverse portfolio of laboratory purification products available, but also provides a comprehensive introduction to laboratory water impurities and purification techniques. Furthermore, a section devoted to helping customers identify purification products to match their application completes the full range of information.
• Featuring innovative thin-walled insulation technology to maximize interior storage capacity without increasing its footprint, the Thermo Scientific Revco PLUS HD ultra-low temperature upright freezer is available with a market leading capacity of 70.000 samples. Using a patented refrigeration system and a robust electrical platform, excellent energy efficiency, temperature stability and fast recovery times make this freezer ideal for safeguarding valuable laboratory samples.
• Combining a maximum capacity of 4 x 400 ml with a compact design for optimizing workspace, the Thermo Scientific Hereaus one-liter general purpose centrifuge series features a multilingual user interface and control technology to maximize run performance and reproducibility.
• As a lightweight, economical and low-cost alternative to standard cell culture bottles, the Thermo Scientific Nalgene economy bottles are guaranteed leakproof, with thinner and more flexible walls. Manufactured in an ISO-certified facility, these economy bottles are a cost-effective, quality choice for lighter-duty lab use.
• New, colored SepraSeals® and ScrewTop Caps allow researchers to identify different experiments and conditions quickly. SepraSeals offer the flexibility of individual tube capping plus the ability to cap 96 tubes at once. Both the seals and the caps complement Thermo Scientific Matrix 2D tubes for secure sample storage.

Refrigerators Freezers and CryogenicsRefrigerators, Freezers & Cryogenics can be used for preservation or experimental purposes. Types of freezers include deep freeze, -80C°C, ultra-low temperature, explosion proof, cryogenic and controlled rate freezers. Freezing is also used in freeze-drying equipment for dehydration processes. Feature to consider in freezers include temperature control and recorders, failure alarms and self-closing mechanisms.CentrifugesCentrifuges are used to separate particulates suspended in a liquid via the application of a centrifugal force including cells, macromolecules, nanoparticles and precipitates. Centrifuges come in three sizes: microcentrifuges, benchtop and floor-standing centrifuges, depending on the volume and number of samples that require separation. When choosing a centrifuge, consider its maximum separation power indicated by its relative centrifugal force (RCF) value. Low force centrifuges reach a maximum RCF of 8,000 g, high-force centrifuges can reach maximum RCF values of 80,000 g. For extremely high forces, consider ultracentrifuges (up to 800,000 g). Refrigerated and vacuum centrifuges also known as concentrators are available for more specialized applications. A range of volumes are available for centrifuge tubes and microfuge tubes, depending on sample sizes.

The purification process typically involves subcellular or membrane protein extraction with cell lysis kits, separation of proteins from cell debris by filtration or spin columns, and the isolation of proteins of interest from other proteins and impurities with affinity purification (including fusion protein tags and antibody binding proteins A, G and L), immunoprecipitation or chromatographic methods, such as ion exchange, size exclusion and immobilized metal affinity chromatography. All purification methods come in multiple formats for your laboratory needs, including agarose or magnetic beads, resins, columns and filter plates. Find the best protein purification equipment in our peer-reviewed product directory: compare products, check customer reviews and receive pricing direct from manufacturers.Water PurificationThere are a number of water purification methods available to remove contamination from laboratory water. These systems include demineralization, reverse osmosis, filtration and ultrafiltration. A combination of methods is sometimes necessary to achieve purified water suitable for use in experiments.
