This prestigious accolade is given to the best new product introductions, as judged by journalists attending the show.
The awards highlight the increasing emphasis on laboratory products at Pittcon.
Ultrasonic Scientific is a pioneer in ultrasonic instrument technology, having developed its high-resolution spectrometer which offers advanced analytical capabilities for a broad range of applications.
The HR-US 101 was introduced at Pittcon by Ultrasonic Scientific in its show debut, which makes the award doubly important for the Irish company.
The new product offers a novel way of sample fingerprinting.
The technology behind the HR-US 101 is based on the measurement of the velocity and attenuation of high frequency acoustic waves (above 20,000 Hertz), propagating through the sample allowing fast, non-destructive analysis.
Ultrasonic waves can travel through opaque systems, making the technique equally applicable to optically transparent as non-transparent samples.
The industry was aware that ultrasound is a powerful technique, not widely used for material analysis because it had limitations such as need for large volumes, complicated operator control and limited resolution.
The new HR US101 technology has overcome these limitations and allows measurement in small samples, with record unbeatable resolution and ease of use.
