Carbolite (http://www.carbolite.com) will be formally introducing its new Microwave Assist Laboratory Box Furnace, a unique heating system that combines both traditional radiant heating and microwave heating, at the upcoming MS & T '07 (Materials Science & Technology) Conference & Exhibition, Detroit, Michigan, September 18 - 19, 2007.
Microwave Assist Technology (MAT) is one of the biggest breakthroughs in furnace technology over the last 25 years. MAT offers distinct advantages over conventional heating technologies, including:
- Greater energy efficiency
- Faster, more uniform sample heating
- Improved material properties
- Rapid product development
Microwave Assist Technology was invented by researchers who recognized that the combination of radiant and microwave heating would be ideal for uniform fast firing of ceramics. This initial research was so successful it lead to a worldwide patent, filed in 1993. Microwave assist technology provides a unique method for safely combining electric heating elements with microwaves.

 SPEX SamplePrep New 2007 Handbook of Sample Preparation & Handling
SPEX SamplePrep’s Tenth Edition “Handbook of Sample Preparation and Handling” features the latest products and techniques for sample preparation. Products include laboratory mills, presses, fusion fluxers, and XRF accessories. This handbook features 50 new products and their use in addition to our existing products.
Some of the new products we’re now offering include: 8530CE Shatterbox®, updated version of 3628 Bench-Press®, Katanax K1 & K2 Automatic Electric Fluxers, and 6870 Freezer/Mill®. To feed the need to grind a variety of samples in different capacities and formats, SPEX SamplePrep introduces a new line of vials for the Freezer/Mills. Vials specifically designed for the Freezer/Mills include: the Chromium Free Vial, the Poly-Vial and Mid-Size Vials. We’ve also made it possible to cryogenically grind with the 2000 Geno/Grinder® Cryo-Blocks. Cryo-Blocks are a simple apparatus to maintain tissue samples at sub-zero temperatures during high throughput homogenization processes. This device is very useful for RNA and protein extractions, as well as other applications that require samples to be chilled.
To get further information on using SPEX SamplePrep’s products for your applications, we’ve expanded our handbook to include a chapter devoted to biotech applications. This section includes, but is not limited to: applications for nucleic acid, protein, and yeast extractions in a 96-well titer plate format. Whatever your analytical approach, SPEX SamplePrep can help you pulverize, blend, fuse, or pelletize your samples.
