We see from your search that you're looking for information on the term "Peristaltic Pump",
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 A new tube is a new peristaltic pump from
Watson-Marlow Bredel Pumps, which we summarised at the time by saying "Watson-Marlow manufactures tubing for peristaltic pumps and transfer duties in four materials, and can supply tubing in 12 different materials and over 60 sizes".
A few weeks before,
we featured the news release Liquid dispensing made much more flexible from
Labtech International: "MicroFlo Select is said to be the first instrument of its kind to offer so many choices in dynamic dispense volumes, plate types, tube styles and sizes, automated dispense heights and cassettes".
In August 2007, we covered the news from Verder
concerning its Dura series peristaltic pumps
- take a look at Peristaltic pump brochure is now available
which says: "The Dura series form a new generation of smaller hose pumps; the Dura10, Dura15 and Dura25, based on an innovative long coupled design with close coupled advantages".
Take a look also at the news release from Anachem, Performance and versatility in liquid transfer,
as well as Peristaltic pump enhances QC at Hoffman-La Roche from Integra Biosciences,
and Concentrate organisms from large volumes of water from ElutraSep.
