A. Applied and Pharmaceutical Markets
-
The new MATRIX™-MG series of high-performance gas
analyzers offer automated, high precision and real-time monitoring of
gas compounds based on infrared spectroscopy. The target gases are
analyzed inside a cell with different optional optical path lengths to
cover a broad range of applications. The identification and
quantification of compounds is performed automatically by OPUS™
GA (Gas Analysis) software with quantification of more than
400 compounds without the need for calibrations. More

The new Honey Profiling module of the NMR FoodScreener™
has quickly gained acceptance by major global food analysis labs and
honey-packers due to its unique capabilities to rapidly and
cost-effectively detect adulteration, and mislabeling of content or
origin. Eurofins Scientific Group and the Bruker-led Honey
Consortium with companies QSI and ALNuMed have decided to harmonize
their NMR honey profiling models and are collaborating on the release
of a unified update of the Honey Profiling module. Famille
Michaud Apiculteurs is the first honey-packer to adopt this novel
NMR solution. With the integration of Honey Profiling
in their analytical portfolio, Famille Michaud can increase the scope
of analysis, while reducing the time of analysis from 2 days to just
20 minutes, in order to reduce production lead-times and total costs,
and to protect their premier honey brands. More…

The latest update of the Wine Profiling module of the NMR
FoodScreener™ provides a unique solution for the
authentication, fraud detection and labeling compliance of high-value
wines. The latest module upgrade features a substantial increase in
the number of regions now covered, and includes areas of particular
interest to consortiums, consumers and collectors. Wines from France,
Italy and Spain, where a premium is paid for wines from a specific
locale and labeling requirements are stringent, can now be easily and
cost-efficiently authenticated and their quality ensured. As
demonstrated by recent adulteration scandals identified by this
method, Wine Profiling is a powerful tool for the full
value chain, from producers guaranteeing the quality of their product
to merchants anxious to protect their investment and reputation. More…

Bruker announces new sample automation with 26mm tubes to further
enhance the value of its TD-NMR based minispec®
Toothpaste Analyzer. The sample changer can handle 48 samples
with temperature control for highest reproducibility. Further options
include a barcode reader and safety housing. The minispec
Toothpaste Analyzer measures the fluorine content in
toothpaste several times faster and at a fraction of the total cost of
ownership compared to other methods. More…

The new Bruker FUSION-SV 1.1 automated structure
verification solution for small molecules in pharma and chemistry
research integrates high-resolution, accurate mass ESI-QTOF mass
spectrometry for automated chemical formula generation with NMR
spectroscopy. The updated FUSION-SV 1.1 solution now
includes additional 2D NMR methods for even higher confidence in
rapid, automated structure verification. Designed for the workflow of
medicinal and synthetic chemists in pharma, chemical industry or in
academia, FUSION-SV 1.1 guides chemists to meaningful
results with minimal interaction and without the need for expert
knowledge. More…
-
Designed for the real-time analysis of chemical reactions under
process conditions, the new InsightMR™ solution uses NMR
flow-tube online monitoring to analyze and optimize chemical
reactions. InsightMR’s software features a user-friendly
interface to allow both expert and non-expert users to set up, monitor
and adjust key experimental parameters. The new NMR flow tube and
probe, with temperature controlled transfer lines, allows fast and
continuous transfer of reaction mixtures from a reaction vessel. More…
B. Nanoanalysis, Microscopy & Advanced Materials Research
-
The new Bruker SiBrickScan (SBS) is the first at-line
FTIR instrument allowing for the quantification of interstitial Oxygen
in complete Silicon bricks and ingots. The SBS system is a big step
forward for Si wafer producers. In contrast to classical approaches,
the SBS does not require the preparation of thin
samples, but directly determines the Oxygen gradient along the ingot
main axis and for fast and economic QC.

The micro-XRF spectrometer M4 TORNADO™ offers new key
capabilities for the analysis of multilayer materials as well as for
the quantification at uneven surfaces, e.g. in powder samples. The new XMethod
software 1.3 manages calibrations and standards and enables the
optimization of complex methods, such as the quantitative analysis of
metallic multilayer stacks for composition and coating thickness. The M4
TORNADO’s new FlexiSpot feature allows spot sizes of up
to 200 µm for reproducible quantification of irregularly shaped
samples, such as powders, soils or granular raw materials. With these
new features, the M4 TORNADO continues to set standards
in accurate, fast and non-destructive elemental analysis. More

The new Vutara™
352 Super-Resolution Fluorescence Microscope enables
entirely new research functionality in super-resolution microscopy,
including the ability to perform pair-correlation, co-location,
cluster, and live-cell analysis with super resolution. Based on
Bruker’s proprietary biplane technology, it leverages high-performance
data acquisition and image processing capabilities to perform the
entire imaging workflow, from acquisition through localization to
quantitative analysis. The Opterra™ SR high speed
confocal option on the Vutara 352 system enables
seamless correlative imaging for sample investigation prior to
super-resolution imaging, as well as the capability to combine
super-resolution images with confocal images for contextual
information. More
