The OptiCounter laser nephelometer is a device for detecting particles in a suspension, assessing the turbidity of a liquid, and the concentration of microorganisms. The device has an innovative optical circuit with an increased optical path length (4 cm) and 8 scattered light sensors. This makes it possible to measure both the light scattered at an angle of 90° (which is prescribed in the standards for determining turbidity EN ISO 7027 and GOST 57164-2016) and the optical density of the sample. The device is designed specifically for working with vials for T25 cell cultures. Thus, the OptiCounter nephelometer allows you to obtain reliable data both in the case of highly scattering media (for example, a suspension of bacteria) and in the case of small impurities of scattering particles, including a monolayer of cells. The OptiCounter nephelometer simplifies the monitoring of cell culture growth. The device is equipped with a wireless Bluetooth module and is capable of autonomous operation directly in the CO2 incubator. Automated software will allow you to receive data on the growth of culture in remote access mode.

The flame spectrometer is designed for rapid determination of a wide range of concentrations (up to 8 orders of magnitude) of sodium, lithium, potassium, calcium, barium, caesium, rubidium in technological solutions. The excitation of atoms occurs in an air-acetylene flame. The device consists of a three-slit burner with flame control, a pneumatic sprayer, a spray chamber, an optical radiation input system into the "Hummingbird-2" spectrometer and an automatic air and acetylene supply system, with the possibility to control and adjust gas flow. The use of a three-slit burner provides increased flame temperature over the central slit of the burner due to the external flame layers. This makes it possible to determine low concentrations of calcium and barium. At the same time, it remains the possibility to determine impurities in highly concentrated solutions without clogging the burner slots. The lighting system of the spectrometer is mirror-lens, thanks to this, radiation collected from both sides of the burner is introduced into the polychromator.

Field of application:  High-performance PCR  Conventional PCR with high reproducibility  Development of PCR products for TA cloning  The second stage of RT-PCR

The laser source is designed to excite atomic emission spectra when performing qualitative spectral analysis of hard rocks - metals, minerals, glasses and others. The source is based on a two-pulse YAG: Nd laser with electro-optic Q-switching operating at the main wavelength of 1064 nm. The duration of each pulse is no more than 10 ns, and the delay between them is adjustable from 0 to 60 microseconds. The possibility of the laser beam to focus on an area of 300 to 1000 microns makes it possible to conduct microanalysis of inclusions, perform two-dimensional scanning of the surface or locally analyze samples with virtually no damage to the surface. A significant advantage of the laser source is the expressiveness and lack of special sample preparation for a wide range of conductive and non-conductive materials. Visual observation and pointing of the beam at the sample is carried out using a stereoscopic microscope integrated into the system, as well as a high-resolution digital video camera with image transmission to a computer. Moving the instrument table with a fixed sample is possible both manually for adjustment, and with the help of stepper motors in two coordinates during analysis, which provides surface scanning and spectrum recording with reference to the video image. The installation can be used in conjunction with any spectral devices – "Grand", "Aspect", "Express", "Hummingbird-2", STE-1, DFS-458, MFS-8, PGS-2 and others. The laser source is designed to excite atomic emission spectra when performing high-quality spectral analysis of hard rocks – metals, minerals, glasses and others.

Designed for monitoring processes in reactors, vacuum chambers, gas pipelines, etc.

The spectrometer is designed to perform quantitative and qualitative spectral analysis of various substances and materials (powders, metals, solutions) in factory and research laboratories. The spectrometer is compact due to the vertical arrangement of the Paschen-Runge optical system.

The plasmatron is designed for direct atomic emission spectral analysis of powder samples. The excitation of atoms occurs in a DC argon arc plasma. Weak matrix effects and low detection limits make it possible to use this excitation source for the analysis of various samples, both with mineral and organic matrix.

A remote-controlled atomizer of powder samples with automatic change of revolver-type samples with arc excitation of the spectrum. It consists of an automatic tripod "Carousel" for arc spectral analysis and a spectroanalytic generator "Ball Lightning"– 40A fully compatible with the expert software system "ATOM" and the MAES analyzer.

It is designed for measurement by the method of disturbed total internal reflection with simultaneous visualization of a micro-object on an integrated and external monitor, as well as by the method of mirror-diffuse reflection with an angle of incidence of 45o at the upper location of the sample. The prefix in the mode of a single NIP is used to register absorption spectra: liquids of any degree of viscosity (solutions, suspensions, oils, etc.), including those with high chemical activity; solid objects of arbitrary shape, including samples with very high hardness (any polymers, fragments of paint coatings, etc.); powdery substances, including powders with very high hardness (drugs, pharmaceuticals, explosives, inorganic compounds); samples in the form of thin tapes; samples in the form of fibers. The maximum hardness and chemical resistance of the diamond significantly expand the possibilities of the method; there is no need for periodic replacement of the crystal. The set-top box allows you to register spectra without time–consuming sample preparation, and the presence of a visual inspection system of the studied surface with a high-quality video camera and a built-in high-definition mini-monitor increases efficiency when working with small samples - fragments of thin fibers, microparticles, etc. The built-in monitor has the functions of digital 10X zoom, inverting, etc. The image can be simultaneously displayed on the computer screen (using a USB interface) and then saved as a file. The removable flange provides a quick and convenient sample change and cleaning of the crystal surface. The design with a diamond element protruding above the base plane of the NPVO allows you to study samples with sufficiently large overall dimensions. The high quality and repeatability of the results is achieved due to the absence of the influence of the thickness of the substance layer on the shape of the spectrum and the intensity of the absorption bands. The sample retains its original physicochemical properties and, if necessary, can be further investigated by other methods. The universal attachment clamp is equipped with a precision lever mechanism for quickly lowering the tip and a micrometer screw that allows you to pre–set the optimal degree of pressure - this ensures quick sample change and repeatability of the results during measurements. For convenience when working with liquid and paste-like samples, as well as in the ZDO mode, it is possible to rotate the clamping console by 180o. The console is equipped with two replaceable tips – with a spherical working part and with a flat hinged head. The high hardness of the diamond allows the use of large clamping forces, which is the determining factor for obtaining high-quality spectra. A replacement table is used to register the specular and diffuse reflection spectra. The sample is located on the subject plane of the investigated surface downwards. The method is used to determine the spectral characteristics of optical parts, thin tapes on the surface, crystals, and other large solid objects of arbitrary shape and size.

MAES analyzers for recording atomic emission spectra with a time resolution of 1 ms are based on highly sensitive photodiodes and a special switching board for simultaneous reading of several sections of the spectra. The assembly of the rulers is installed on the "Grand" spectrometer. A " Flow" or twin-jet arc plasmatron is used to excite the atomic emission spectra of powder samples. The ATOM software registers the selected spectral lines and provides their processing according to the specified algorithms, taking into account the number and brightness of flashes (i.e. particle size). Recording the spectra of powder samples with a large time resolution makes it possible to estimate the number and size of individual particles, identify their composition and determine the concentrations of elements in each particle, promptly assess the uniformity of the distribution of certain elements to be determined and expand the possibilities of spectral analysis without significant changes in sample preparation. Main application areas: mass analysis of powder geological samples by scintillation to determine gold, silver, platinum group metals, iridium, rhodium, etc. with detection limits up to 0.01 g/t; qualitative determination of the composition of inclusions and mineral particles.
