At Pittcon 2014, Bruker (NASDAQ: BRKR) today announced new
product introductions and enhancements for improved performance and
customer experience in research, industrial and applied markets.
Designed to increase sensitivity, improve specificity and maximize
productivity, the new Bruker products introduced at Pittcon 2014
include:
Chromatography, Mass Spectrometry and Infrared/Raman
Spectroscopy:
GC-APCI II MS
interface: This second generation GC-APCI-MS interface
allows even more convenient connection of Bruker’s complementary
separation and MS detection technologies. The GC-APCI II
features a flexible heated GC-transfer line for easier instrument
positioning. It offers coupling of GCs to any Bruker ESI system,
including accurate-mass QTOF systems, without tools. The new
interface provides better sensitivity and improved dynamic range
while retaining excellent GC-separation performance for
identification of unknowns in metabolomics and small molecule
research.
Dash Reporting Software for
GC-MS and LC-MS: Bruker’s new Dash reporting
software brings the power and flexibility of customized reporting
to all Bruker GC-MS and LC-MS users. It is centered around Dash
Designer, which enables customers to design and format report
elements, and preview reports. Dash is included on all new
EVOQ™ LC-MS and SCION™ GC-MS spectrometers, and is
available as an upgrade for existing customers.
autoflex speed MALDI-TOF (/TOF)
with 2 kHz smartbeam™ laser: The new autoflex
speed mass spectrometer incorporates Brukers’ proprietary
smartbeam™-II laser technology to enable up to 2 kHz
repetition rate in MS mode. The new autoflex speed enhances
the productivity of laboratories involved in biomarker discovery,
polymer analysis, lipid and glycan analysis, mass spectrometry
imaging, as well as high-throughput MALDI Biotyper
microbiological molecular identification.
VERTEX - MIR-FIR Spectroscopy in One
Step: The world’s first FTIR spectrometer covers the
complete middle and far infrared/THz spectral ranges in one step
with no gaps! The new wide-range MIR-FIR DLaTGS detector is
combined with the recently introduced wide-range MIR-FIR
beamsplitter offered for the Bruker VERTEX 70 series of
research FTIR spectrometers to achieve unmatched spectral range.
This new combination provides data collection from 6000cm-1 to
10cm-1 in one step for all types of transmittance, reflectance, and
ATR measurements without the need for any beamsplitter or detector
exchange. This expanded range makes the infrared analysis of
inorganic compounds and polymorphic species quick and easy.
Materials Research and Analysis:
S2 KODIAK: The new online multi-element analyzer S2
KODIAK uses X-ray fluorescence to analyze the elemental
concentrations in ores and other materials on conveyor belts in
real time. Since information about the ore grade becomes
immediately available with the S2 KODIAK, mineral
beneficiation and ore blending can be optimized. This allows
substantially higher product grades, better cost efficiency, and
increased mine output. Based on S2 KODIAK results, miners
and plant operators are able to instantly adjust process parameters
and achieve higher recoveries without time consuming and costly
sample preparation. There are no delays waiting for results from an
offsite laboratory.
Second generation S1
TITAN: In response to customer feedback, the new
S1 TITAN has been enhanced to include a weatherproof
IP54-rated housing, optional integrated camera and a small spot
collimator for microspot analysis and video camera observations and
recordings. In addition, the protective TITAN Detector
Shield™ is now standard for all models. The patented
SharpBeam™ collimator technology remains a standard feature
in all S1 TITAN models. Its optimized geometry has many user
benefits, including improved measurement precision, reduced power
requirements and increased battery life. The result is one of the
most durable handheld XRF analyzers on the market today.
Dektak XTL™ Stylus Profiler:
The new Dektak XTL Stylus Profiler extends industry-leading
stylus profilometry to 200 and 300 millimeter semiconductor wafer
fabs and next-generation touch panel manufacturers. The system
provides the most cost-effective, full 300-millimeter wafer
solution for characterizing thin film step heights, resist step
heights, line edge roughness, CMP dishing and erosion, as well as
roll-off amount (ROA). The Dektak XTL combines decades of
stylus innovation with new features suitable for QA/QC
environments, enabling increased accuracy and minimal operator
intervention between loading and unloading samples.
Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy and Preclinical
Imaging:
minispec™ with
automation: The new sample automation for the
minispec mq and mq-one series is easy to use and
cost-effective and brings sample automation to routine Time-Domain
(TD)-NMR. Its fast sample exchange of 10mm OD sample tubes and
automated and precise tempering times deliver new levels of
throughput and reliability, significantly boosting productivity of
the minispec series. Complex Solid Fat Content (SFC)
analysis, one of the major minispec applications, now benefits from
highly accurate sample temperatures, delivering results in strict
accordance with SFC International Standard Methods. The minispec
sample automation is also available as an upgrade.
TopSolids™ NMR software
package: This new intuitive, workflow-based software
package for solid-state NMR in structural biology provides
menu-based, automated setup and acquisition of the most advanced
multinuclear multi-dimensional NMR experiments. TopSolids
includes a comprehensive library of protocols for structural
biology, and ensures robust, secure spectrometer and probe setup.
The combination of optimized acquisition parameters with fine
tuning on the actual research sample guarantees unsurpassed
spectral quality. TopSolids is readily accessible to users
from diverse backgrounds for understanding the structure and
dynamics of complex insoluble proteins.
New Preclinical Imaging Center of
Excellence: Bruker recently announced the opening of a
new Preclinical Imaging Center of Excellence for the Americas in
Billerica, Massachusetts. The facility offers advanced development,
demonstration and support facilities for Bruker’s industry-leading
portfolio of preclinical imaging instrumentation and multimodal
platforms including MRI, uCT, Optical Molecular Imaging, MALDI
imaging and EPR imaging. In showcasing both the individual imaging
technologies and the benefits gained from combining multimodal
experiments, the Center will promote the successful application of
complementary imaging information in preclinical research in
oncology, cardiology, inflammation, musculoskeletal imaging and the
neurosciences.
Ascend™ Aeon 900: The
world’s first compact, single-story solid-state 900 MHz NMR magnet
integrates advanced refrigeration technology into the magnet
design, and provides independence from periodic cryogen refills.
Combining the latest Aeon technology with Bruker’s
established Ascend™ magnet technology delivers
industry-leading solid-state NMR performance and unmatched
convenience for customers. It enables long-term, carefree operation
without user maintenance and with essentially
helium-consumption-free operation. Due to advancements in
superconductors, jointing technologies and novel magnet designs,
the reduced height and stray fields maximize siting flexibility and
reduces site preparation costs.
NMR JuiceScreener 3.0:
Bruker’s third release of its successful NMR JuiceScreener™
comes with significant further enhancements that enable the
accurate, swift, automated screening of even more fruit juice
types. From an expanded database now containing more than 16,000
spectra obtained from production sites all over the world, with
over 300,000 NMR reference values, determination of origin and
detection of adulteration now covers 19 types of fruit and 10 types
of juice. The NMR JuiceScreener 3.0 now covershigh-value
products such as passion fruit juice, pomegranate juice and mango
puree.
Frank H. Laukien, Ph.D., President and CEO of Bruker
