Long considered the premiere chemical analysis tool, the ion trap mass spectrometer provides on-site, real time identification and quantification of chemicals. The MANTA provides the highest level of performance in a compact, easy-to-use field mobile mass spectrometer system developed for use in or near bodies of water. The MANTA can be configured for a simple operation or may be configured to utilize additional problem solving features of advanced analytical instrumentation.

If you are concerned about potentially harmful chemicals in your water supply, the mass spectrometer is the ideal instrument to identify which type and quantity of chemicals are present. Mass spectrometry is a proven analytical technique that identifies molecules present in solids, liquids and gasses. For a given sample of liquid or gas, it determines which atoms comprise the molecules, how the atoms are arranged and the quantity of each type of molecule. From this information, the amount and type of chemical contaminants in water can be identified and quantified in real time.

The Porifera REMS serves as a robotic sentinel sampler that can work 24/7 capturing and preparing samples for analysis back in the lab using your standard procedures and instrumentation. When enclosed in its underwater pressure housing, this “Sampling Technician in an Underwater Package” is ideal for sampling areas of concern for chemical, biological (microbes, larvae) or particulate matter over extended periods of time in bodies of water such as reserviors, oceans, rivers and lakes.

Samples can be captured, prepared, preserved and archived within the programmable sampler, then transported to a lab for off site chemical or biological analysis using mass spec, microscopy, spectroscopy, genetic techniques, etc.

The SE 300 Portable Bioreaction Monitoring System is a handheld thermally regulated fluorometer/luminometer. Powered by USB or wall outlet, bioreaction parameters are PC controlled and users can view real time response data via curve or raw data tables using our proprietary SE 300 software (included with unit purchase). The unit has been primarily used for NASBA reactions, which run at 41C, but the reaction chamber temperature can be adjusted on the fly for other isothermal methods. The standard unit is configured for dual channel FAM (495/520nm) and ROX(586/610nm) molecular probes, but can be custom configured to meet your specifications.
