Global leader in analytical technologies showcases five high
performance instruments for the environmental, pharmaceutical, water and
food industries
WALTHAM, Mass.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--
PerkinElmer
Inc., a global leader focused on the health and safety of people and
the environment, will showcase five key product developments at Chem-Med
2011, Hall 3, stand D27-E30, October 5-7, in Milan. PerkinElmer's
new solutions provide customers with tools designed to perform accurate
analyses of a broad range of environmental, food, pharmaceutical and
geochemical samples.
"The platforms we are showcasing have been developed in response to
specific customer needs for real-world applications," said Dusty Tenney,
president, Analytical Sciences and Laboratory Services, PerkinElmer. "We
remain a world leader in the supply of FT-IR spectrometers, microscopy
and imaging systems, as well as ICP, GC/MS, GC/HS and atomic absorption
technology, for a wide range of markets, due to our responsiveness to
customer requirements. Researchers in key application areas can benefit
from our expertise, knowledge and technologies across the environmental,
food, consumer product and pharmaceutical testing segments."
Innovations that will be displayed include:
The OptimaTM
8x00 ICP-OES platform offers improved performance and reduced
operating costs for determining the elemental composition of a wide
variety of samples. A novel electronic sample introduction system
provides superior sensitivity and innovative radio frequency (RF)
generator technology dramatically reduces total cost of operation by
reducing argon gas consumption. With exceptional throughput and
detection limits, this easy to use instrument platform lowers cost per
analysis and helps laboratories meet the continued challenges of the
environmental market.
Taking atomic absorption to new levels, the compact PinAAcleTM
spectrometer is technically superior to its rivals offering the
performance needed for environmental, food and consumer product testing.
Based on an optical system that utilizes state-of-the-art fiber optics,
the instrument has a newly designed light path which shapes 100% of the
beam resulting in the smallest footprint of any combined flame/granite
furnace AA system on the market.
The Clarus®
SQ 8 GC/MS delivers reliable throughput and productivity for
analysts requiring extreme sensitivity, such as in environmental and
food testing applications. By minimizing requirements for instrument
calibration and reducing the need for sample preparation and
concentration, the system dramatically improves workflow and provides
consistent and reliable results. Its revolutionary Smart SourceTM
technology provides unprecedented access, ease of use, and maintenance
for the user resulting in increased uptime and reduced operating costs.
PerkinElmer's comprehensive quality approach, from product design,
development and manufacturing through to customer support, assures high
quality FT-IR analysis. The compact Spectrum
TwoTM FT-IR spectrometer combines superb performance with
low maintenance, and can be used by non-expert users outside traditional
laboratory environments. In even the most demanding applications,
PerkinElmer FrontierTMsystems offer superior near-, mid- and far- IR spectroscopic
performance. The instrument combines sensitivity with flexibility for
use in many diverse sectors including food, water, environment and
pharmaceutical testing.
Product specialists will be available to discuss how PerkinElmer's
analytical solutions can improve laboratory productivity and
cost-effectiveness. For further information on PerkinElmer's analytical
