THE BUCHLER

FRACTO^MAT linear fraction

collector

FRACTOMAT is one of the most compact fraction collectors available, yet offers features not found in larger units. It provides drop, time and volume (syphon or photoelectric) collection directly into an unlimited number of test tubes. A safety teflon valve prevents stray drops falling between test tubes or loss of sample due to power failure. Adapters available for micro-collection.

Industry Items Cary Instruments has opened its first laboratory on the East coast in Fairfield, N. J. The new facility will help chemists with test analyses, sample-handling techniques, and instru­ ment operation. Dynatech Corp., 17 Tudor St., Cam­ bridge, Mass., offers a thermal conduc­ tivity measurement service for testing of most solid materials, especially ce­ ramics, glasses, plastics, semiconduc­ tors, and poor conducting materials. Determinations can be made over the temperature range of 30° to 160° C. Greenwood Laboratories, Chadds Ford, Pa., is a newly formed company organized to handle nonroutine and dif­ ficult analytical problems, especially those related to the determination of organic compounds in chemical and bio­ logical mixtures. "Customerized Serv­ ice" involves the use of instrument techniques and competent and expe­ rienced staff chemists for consultation. Lachat Chemicals, Inc., 20200 Ash­ land Ave., Chicago Heights, 111. 60411, announces the following new services: lower fatty acid assays by gas chroma­ tography; capillary gas chromatogra­ phy analyses; and pyrolysis gas chro­ matography analyses. Liquid Filter Corp., 22932 Hoover Rd., Warren, Mich. 48089, announces a free contaminant analysis service for chemical processing fluids. The service is designed to aid in the solution of fil­ tration problems. Mallinckrodt Chemical Works, St. Louis, Mo., has acquired Nuclear Research Chemicals, Inc., of Orlando, Fla. The latter company is a manufac­ turer of radioactive labeled com­ pounds; Mallinckrodt makes chemicals for laboratory, industrial, and pharma­ ceutical purposes.
