Chromatography data system
Agilent Technologies has introduced an enhanced version of OpenLAB CDS: Peak Explorer for single-click peak integration and intelligent reporting. These features boost sample throughput for laboratories processing large numbers of complex samples. Peak Explorer is a visualization module that speeds review of complex chromatographic data and enables users to browse multiple sample runs containing multiple peaks - including entire sequences - rapidly, in one data review window. Users can manually integrate peaks with a single mouse-click, and historic results can be compared, as there are no changes to the integration algorithm.

Laboratory gravity oven
LabStrong Corporation has collaborated with North Central Laboratories (NCL) to create the next-generation laboratory gravity oven. The NCL LabStrong Gravity Oven offers significant improvements in performance over existing technology. The oven, sold exclusively through NCL, offers quality temperature uniformity performance. Gentle drying and heating, with low turbulence, protects delicate samples where a fan airflow would disturb them. Further, an advanced 4.3’’ display with touch-screen graphical control also provides intuitive operation with precise temperature control.

Portable meter
METTLER TOLEDO has introduced the new, simple and reliable, attractively designed, and robust Seven2Go portable meter. The meters are engineered to provide users with quick data, single-handed operation, durability, and reliable pH measurement for laboratory, at-line and outdoor environments. With Seven2Go’s new intuitive menu, users no longer need to worry about pH measurements being complicated and time-consuming. New menu items include: InLab ISM® (Intelligent Sensor Management), which automatically recognizes the sensor and stores the sensor ID, serial number and most recent calibration data; and T-Pad, which improves the speed with which users move through menus.
