X-Pulse 90
X-Pulse 90 is a revolutionary new benchtop nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectrometer that brings broadband NMR to the benchtop at 90 MHz for the first time. X-Pulse 90 is the ideal instrument for flexible chemical analysis, across a wide variety of applications, as it enables investigation of the largest number of nuclei without compromising performance. X-Pulse 90 continues the X-Pulse ethos of modularity, versatility, and upgradeability, and as such can be tailored to your needs, for example, with a flow cell to monitor real-time reactions, or the addition of variable temperature capability. Additionally, the unique, user exchangeable probe enables the setup to be easily changed depending on the requirements (e.g. highest signal to noise (SNR) performance versus multiple nuclei), as well as ease of access for cleaning. X-Pulse’s unique features that will benefit your workflow: - Broadband capability enables the largest number of nuclei to be measured on a benchtop NMR spectrometer without compromising sensitivity - A wide variable temperature range option of 0-60°C allowing users to thoroughly investigate reaction kinetics or characterise electrolyte properties - The orientation of the diffusion gradient ensures accurate measurement, even in flow experiments - User exchangeable probes mean no compromise between versatility and sensitivity - User removeable probe ensures minimal machine downtime for breakages and spills
MQC-R
A flexible benchtop time domain NMR research instrument for materials analysis. MQC-R is a highly configurable, benchtop time domain nuclear magnetic resonance (TD-NMR) instrument for flexible analysis of materials across academia and industry. Its modular design provides wide ranging options for varying sample temperature and pulsed field gradient packages to measure diffusion and 1D profiles.
witec360
The Oxford Instruments witec360 is the new benchmark for Raman imaging and correlative microscopy systems, designed to meet the growing demands of academic and industrial researchers for comprehensive analysis at the nanoscale. The witec360, successor to the pioneering alpha300 series, sets new standards in performance and broadband capability. Its fundamentally modular design provides immediate and long-term value with easy onboarding for Raman newcomers and the versatility to keep pace with varied and quickly evolving applications.
BC43
BC43 benchtop microscopes offer high-quality images, 2D/3D, widefield or confocal. The super-resolution option delivers resolutions down to 140 nm with the push of a button. Its certified quality ensures reproducibility and reliability of data between experiments and different research groups. BC43 includes Fusion Benchtop software, for straightforward multimodal imaging acquisition, and Imaris, the market leader in image analysis software.
Unity
Oxford Instruments introduces Unity, a new detector for a revolutionary new imaging technique in the Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM). Unity is the world’s first Backscattered Electron and X-ray (BEX) Imaging detector. It seamlessly combines backscattered electron and X-ray signals to deliver rapid high-definition colour images embedded with elemental data as you navigate around your sample. Based on a revolutionary design, which includes both backscattered electron and X-ray sensors within the same sensor package, Unity is located directly beneath the pole piece and has been engineered to maximise signal collection, ensuring it can be used at normal imaging speed and operating conditions, making imaging elementary. The high-speed BEX data collection of Unity makes it easier than ever before to image and analyse an entire sample in minutes, changing the way SEM is used.
MCQ +
The MQC+ benchtop Nuclear Magnetic Resonance analyser (NMR analyser) measures oil, water, fluorine and solid fat in a variety of samples and is typically used as a quality assurance and quality control product. It also measures the physical properties of materials such as polymer crystallinity/density and molecular weight. Analysis using the MQC+ takes from a few seconds to a few minutes, which means that a high volume of samples can be processed quickly and efficiently
Jupiter Discovery
The Jupiter Discovery Atomic Force Microscope offers a unique combination of best-in-class performance along with exceptional ease of use. Whether in academia or industry, researchers expect high quality results with less training and effort. At the same time, today’s AFM measurements demand higher performance as users strive to resolve finer details and achieve higher accuracy, repeatability, and throughput. The Jupiter Discovery is the only AFM that meets these needs, delivering both the ultra-high performance and the exceptional usability that researchers need.
