The OTS Climactic Test Chamber is designed for the rigorous evaluation of electronics and various components under a spectrum of climactic conditions. Its primary function lies in the simulation of underground temperatures and humidity levels, providing a controlled testing environment. The chamber exhibits an impressive temperature range, spanning from -50°C to +150°C, and the inner chamber measures 40cm X 50cm X 40cm, offering ample space for a range of testing.

An ICP-OES is used for trace multi-elemental analysis in a variety of samples. It is a destructive analytical technique that allows for measurement in the ppm range, based on the principle that excited ions and atoms release energy at specific wavelength when they fall back to their natural lower energy level. The Beer Lambert law describes the relationship between light intensity and concentration of the element. The CASS’s ICPOES analyzes in radial, axial or dual views, which increases instrument sensitivity and tolerances to a wide range of sample matrices.

Inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry The ICPMS is used for ultra-trace multi-elemental analysis (ppg range) in applications where low detection limits are paramount. This is possible because unlike the ICPOES, which uses an optical spectrometer to measure the light emitted from elements as they pass through the plasma, the ICPMS measures the ions directly. Additionally, since this is a mass spectrometric technique, ICP-MS can also separate and measure the individual isotopes of an element, so it can be used for applications where isotopic abundances or isotope ratios are of interest. Note that this instrument can be connected to accessories that allow for direct analysis of solid materials or gases.

Ion chromatography is used for ion analysis, by separating ions and polar molecules based on their electrical charge and affinity for the column. It can be coupled to the ICPMS to provide information on the different chemical forms or “species” of each element in a sample.This information is important, since the functional activity, toxicity and fate of elements is heavily influenced by their chemical form (valency). For example, arsenates (the pentavalent form) appear to be less toxic than arsenites (the trivalent form) of arsenic.

The GC-MS uses chromatography to separate vaporized samples into their constituents, using a capillary column. It can be used in experiments involving liquid, gaseous, or solid samples, if the samples they are amenable to vaporization, among other things, within the instrument’s operational parameters. In certain applications, GCMS can be advantageous over LCMS in terms of peak capacity, reliability and chromatographic resolution.

The LECO-C/S analyzer uses infrared energy at unique wavelengths within the IR spectrum to analyze the carbon and sulphur contents of a sample after its combustion. This particular instrument is specifically designed to handle a wide variety of organic materials and some inorganic materials including: coal and coke, combustion residues, biomass materials, catalyst materials, cement, soil and ore materials, ceramics, glass, gypsum and building materials, hydrated lime and cement, fertilizer, feeds and plant tissue materials, rubber, resins and polymers, graphite, and petroleum products and additives.

The T5 Titrator has one to four total burettes for performing complex titrations and is developed for high throughput testing. It also contains InMotion automation which can aid with the efficiency of titrating and can accurately measure water in liquid or solid samples from 0.001% to 100%, using volumetric and coulometric titrations.

Microplate readers measure chemical, biological or physical reactions, properties, and analytes within the well of a microplate and are crucial to high-throughput operations for robust statistical analysis. This instrument offers five measurement technologies, including absorbance, fluorescence intensity, luminescence, time-resolved fluorescence and Alpha. Besides excellent performance in all applications, it offers huge selection of automatic features to help you save time and reduce common errors in the lab. It also has integrated gas control monitors for O₂ and CO₂, in order to ensure the survival of the cells when they are in use.

This instrument is a fully automated imaging system that incorporates both monochrome and color high-resolution CMOS cameras for both multi-channel fluorescence and colorimetric imaging. It can also scan multiwell plates automatically that can quickly autofocus, perform image acquisition, process large amounts of data, and allow for particle analysis.

The Flame AA is a sensitive and highly selective spectrometric tool widely used for trace elemental analysis (mostly of metals and metalloids). It achieves this by using a flame to transforming samples into excited ground state atoms. This instrument measures the light absorbed by the flame produced from the sample. Unlike the ICP systems, it is limited in the number of elements it can simultaneously analyse from samples, but its affordability, simplicity and reliability make it a popular starting point before more comprehensive analytical studies.

Unlike Flame AAS, this instrument utilizes a technique called graphite furnace atomization. Graphite Furnace analysis times are longer than those for Flame sampling, and fewer elements can be determined using GFAA. However, the enhanced sensitivity of GFAA, and its ability to analyze very small samples, significantly expands the capabilities of atomic absorption. GFAA allows the determination of over 40 elements in microliter sample volumes with detection limits typically 100 to 1000 times better than those of Flame AA systems.

Electrophoresis kits are used to separate DNA and RNA by applying an electric field to the nucleic acids being analyzed, which will separate these by size or charge, onto agarose gel. It can also separate proteins by using polyacrylamide gels. Electrophoresis kits are mainly used for analytical and preparative techniques.
