Trace analysis of mercury with spectrometer
From Lambda Advanced Technology is the Analytik Jena 'mercur' atomic fluorescence spectrometer, a compact system specially optimised.
LAT Director, Vince Phelan, explains: "The TM-1000 is not only extremely easy to use, but also easy to set up.
We can arrive first thing in the morning, install the microscope and give some basic training and the user should be up and running by 10.30 AM.
We'll leave the system for unlimited use until 4.30 PM, when we'll come and dismantle it and take it away again".
"Experience has shown us that users really appreciate the potential the instrument has to offer when they can use it for their own samples," he continued.
"Producing high quality micrographs quickly and easily in one's own laboratory with no sample preparation highlights the capabilities of the instrument.
We felt that our 'no charge' offer fitted perfectly with the instrument's ability to produce 'charge-free' images on non-conducting samples".
The TM-1000 is designed to bridge the gap between optical and electron microscopy, by offering the resolution, depth of field and magnification capabilities associated with electron optics, whilst being extremely easy to use.
This enables even non-specialists to effortlessly obtain images of outstanding quality.
It has applications in a host of sectors, including life science, food, cosmetics, healthcare, pharmaceutical, textiles, materials science, semiconductor and education.
It is equipped with autofocus, auto-brightness and auto-contrast functions and features a magnification range of 20 - 10,000x using standard imaging and up to 40,000x using digital zoom capabilities.
All images are recorded digitally on a computer for easy access.
