LECO Webinar: "Fields of Fortune: Analyzing Crops with the 828 and 928 Series"
In farming, soil plays a very vital part in determining quality and yield of produce. Plants draw their nutrients from the soil they grow in. These nutrients, especially the big ones like carbon and nitrogen, determine the health and yield potential of the soil. Too much can be just as bad as too little, not to mention more expensive. Knowing the levels of nutrients in your fields and adjusting for correct levels and ratios is essential to produce a thriving crop.
LECO’s 828 and 928 series of analytical determinators can monitor these levels at all stages of the growth process. From analyzing soil to fertilizer to the plant tissue itself, these instruments can give you a dynamic look at your field throughout the season.

MECMESIN Product Intro: "OmniTest materials testers"
Materials scientists always endeavour to deliver more efficient processes of developing lighter, stronger and more long-lasting materials.
Testing the physical strength properties of materials, in accordance with international or in-house standards, is a key part of determining their characteristics to better understand the effects of process improvements.
After all, if a material used in a product is defective, then the product itself may be defective.
With this in mind, Mecmesin has designed a range of static-load Materials Testers powered by its intuitive VectorPro™ MT software. It meets the challenge of being versatile yet easy-to-use, with minimal operator training and it’s guaranteed not to break your budget.
Key features
- 5 models available: 5, 7.5, 10, 25 and 50 kN
- Optional extensometry and full range of test fixtures
- ELS loadcells with excellent accuracy across the range
- Rigid frame with lightweight construction
- Compatibility with Extensometer
Powered by VectorPro® MT software
- Intuitive drag and drop interface for fast test creation
- Customizable test routines for standards (eg ASTM, DIN, ISO…)
- Test routines and data can be shared with anyone
- Comprehensive security for test data and access
OXFORD Webinar: "Benchtop NMR spectroscopy for the rapid analysis of food and pharmaceuticals"
X-pulse broadband benchtop NMR
ON DEMAND WEBINAR
This webinar will introduce benchtop NMR spectroscopy as a technique and an overview of its use for high-throughput analysis in a range of applications. We demonstrate quantitation via traditional peak integrals, linear regression and chemometric approaches. The particular challenges associated with the use of low-field data are discussed, drawing on a selection of case studies from the food and health sectors.
By the end of the webinar, you will:
- Have an understanding of benchtop NMR as an analytical technique
- Know more about the benefits and drawbacks of benchtop NMR for industrial analysis
