We see from your search that you're looking for information on the term "Centrifuge",
and we have a large number of manufacturers' news releases and technical articles here on Laboratorytalk which will be of interest.
Let me be your guide.
Start with
the news release Quick guide to the biocidal products regulations from
Amity, which we summarised at the time by saying "The Approved Codes of Practice to the Control of Substances Hazardous to Health (Coshh) Regulations require that, with respect to biological agents, laboratories have specified disinfection
procedures".
Earlier in the week,
we featured the news release Software helps HTA compliance from
Brady Lab: "When samples are stored under HTA rules for purposes such as research, transplantation or teaching, a traceable inventory system is required by law".
In December 2007, we covered the news from Analytik
concerning its CPS disc centrifuge
- take a look at Nanoparticle characterisation at BegbrokeNano
which says: "The ability of the CPS disc centrifuge to detect and measure small differences and changes in particle size distribution enables study of coating thickness on core and shell nanoparticle structures".
Take a look also at the news release from Biomedical Polymers, Cytology funnels for Shandon Cytospin centrifuge,
as well as Dry baths for shaking, chilling, heating from Torrey Pines Scientific,
and Microplate spin-down station is automated from Velocity11.
