MSI Viking announces partnership with QC Training Services
The partnership will expand coverage of quality topics in metrology insights and training opportunities.
Why accurate pH and conductivity measurements are critical for battery manufacturing
Explore how the performance and longevity of a battery are heavily dependent on one critical parameter — pH level.
Using a centering microscope for precise workpiece location
Centering microscopes are toolmaker set-up instruments that precisely locate work on a milling machine, lathe, electrical discharge machine, drill and other machine tools as well as coordinate measuring machines for part inspection.
New nanopipette designed to poke into cancer cells
The nanopipette, which is controlled via robotic software, features two nanoscopic needles to enable the simultaneous sample injection and extraction from the cell.
Human heart-on-a-chip advances drug and disease modeling
The device is intended to overcome the limitations of animal-based trials with a tool that more accurately replicates interactions of cells within the heart.
How Do Light Meters Work?
Lux meters, sometimes called light meters, measure the intensity of illumination as distinguished by the human eye.
How to measure pH in small volume sample
Sensors are available that can help to measure pH in small samples directly without diluting them.
A test for detecting fentanyl, other opioids in less than three minutes
The new blood test can analyze 96 blood samples that might contain opioids such as fentanyl simultaneously and in under three minutes — reportedly twice as fast as similar techniques.
Sensor detects lead in water with unprecedented sensitivity
The device achieves a record limit of detection of lead down to the femtomolar range, which is one million times more sensitive than available sensing technologies.
World’s first quadrupole TOF mass spectrometer equipped with ion dissociation technology
The oxygen attachment dissociation (OAD)-time-of-flight (TOF) system is the world’s first quadrupole TOF mass spectrometer to provide detailed structural analyses of lipids and other natural compounds.
