INFORMATION MANAGEMENT SYSTEM For biobanks and laboratories looking to securely organize and track their stored samples, the new version 4.903 Track-IT Information manage- ment system enables users to scan tube codes directly into the software. With Micronic Traxcer code reader software now fully integrated with Track-IT, users can directly trigger tube or rack barcode scanning from the Track-IT program. The new version of the automation friendly in- formation management solution allows you to scan in only five seconds and transfer the codes directly into the Track-IT database program. Using this unique capability, laboratories can markedly speed up their sample storage process compared to database programs in which users need to upload spreadsheets with scanned tube or rack codes.Track-IT is a unique out-of-the-box LIMS/LIS solution designed to enable scientists to orga- nize and securely track their storage tubes and samples in mere seconds. Micronic For info: +31-320-277070 www.micronic.com GLYCOPROTEIN ELUTING SOLUTIONS Five Glycoprotein Eluting Solutions have been generated to complement the existing range of agarose bound lectins. These solutions maximize the yield of eluted glycoproteins from the beads and preserve lectin activity for repeat use. Offered as ready-to-use 100 mL solutions with a neutral pH range, these new products offer researchers convenience and superior recovery over standard sugar solutions. Neoglycoproteins are generally described as proteins that, in their native form, do not contain carbohy- drate groups but have been chemically derivatized with sugars. We have synthesized nine Neoglycoproteins, which consist of simple sugars cou- pled with highly purified bovine serum albumin. The neoglycoproteins are intended as positive controls to determine lectin binding activity in a variety of applications such as affinity columns and blotting. Each is sup- plied as a 10 mg/mL solution. Vector Laboratories For info: 650-697-3600 www.vectorlabs.com Electronically submit your new product description or product literature information!

SAMPLE DRYING AND CONCENTRATION The ROCKET 4D is a fully automated system for automatic drying or concentration of very large volumes (a few to 100 L) in one operation with no user interaction. Simply load your sample, select a method, press start, and walk away—the system will do the rest. Compact in size the ROCKET 4D allows you to dry or concentrate your samples with complete confidence as it uses proprietary vacuum technology to sup- press solvent bumping and foaming—problems associated with sample loss when using large-scale rotary evaporators. Rocket 4D comes as standard with a single, 5 L 316 stainless steel vessel for drying or con- centrating product. This has detachable handles and is easily lifted into and out of the evaporator. Access to the dried or concentrated product in the vessel is very easy. Dried products can be scooped out, or where enhanced user protection is needed, redissolved while the vessel is still in the system.

GeneArt Strings are cus- tom-ordered double-stranded segments of DNA that can be up to one kilobase (1,000 base pairs) in length. They offer the advantages of synthetic DNA—design flexibility and sequence optimization for ro- bust and reliable expression—along with quick processing times and five to seven business day delivery. A three-tiered pricing system cor- relates with increasing size of the ordered fragment. GeneArt Strings DNA Fragments can be edited, optimized, and ordered via the Life Technologies online order portal for a convenient and user-friendly customer experience.
