Torrey Pines Scientific's New Chilling/Heating
HPLC Column Temperature Controller from
4.0°C to 100.0°C
Torrey Pines Scientific, Inc. announces its new EchoTherm™
Model CO50 Programmable HPLC Column Chiller/Heater. The
unit has a temperature range from 4.0°C to 100.0°C readable and
settable to 0.1°C. The PID control software regulates temperatures
to ±0.2°C, even at ambient. The CO50 has a Stable Temperature
LED that illuminates when the target temperature is stable to within
±0.2°C.
The Peltier-based CO50 has 5-program memory of 10 steps per
program and the ability to repeat any program from 1 to 99 times
automatically. It is ideal for chiral and biomedical chromatography
where below ambient temperatures help preserve bioactivity. It
can be used for stabilizing column temperatures from day to day at
or near room temperatures for repeatable results. The CO50 holds
columns up to 30 cm long by ¼ " or 3/8 " diameter in mounting clips
provided. Larger diameter columns can be used by removing the
column clips that hold the smaller columns.
The CO50 features RS232 I/O port for controlling the unit by a
chromatograph, for programming gradients, and for data collection.
Also included are an injection counter, 30-day timer with user
settable Auto-Off, and chamber drain for spills.
The unit comes with a bench top universal power supply for use
anywhere in the world, 3-wire AC line cord for the country of use,
Hygiena® Announces Issuance of a New U.S.
Patent for SalQuant®
Hygiena® is pleased to announce that the United States Patent
and Trademark Office (USPTO) has recently granted patent
number 11,634,782; U.S. Patent Application No. 16/549,059; and
the official registered trademark to protect BAX® System SalQuant®.
The patent has been effective since April 23, 2023.
Hygiena's patented SalQuant, which was developed to meet
increased demand for Salmonella quantification in One Health
Diagnostics™ applications, serves as an alternative to traditional,
time-consuming methods. Using this multipurpose tool, processors
can quantify Salmonella from the farm to final product to improve
and verify sanitation and antimicrobial intervention processes, to
meet more stringent regulatory and quality standards while protecting
consumers by knowing the risk a positive sample could pose.
Designed by food industry customers, for food industry customers,
SalQuant accommodates their top needs such as simplified
workflows and faster time-to-results that will support their food
safety plans. The patented system leverages molecular methods to
enumerate Salmonella contamination in many common food matrices,
including beef, pork, poultry, environmentals, produce and
seafood. It provides food companies with a data-driven decision for
pathogen testing that is rapid, reliable and offers increased accuracy.
twelve-month warranty and instruction manual. The Model CO50 is
UL, CSA, and CE compliant.

Commenting on the patent, Hygiena Chief Scientific Officer Dr.
Patrice Chablain said, " The addition of this recent patent underscores
our commitment to innovation in advancing seamless, easy-to-follow
diagnostic tools that answer every step of the quantification workflow
while minimizing cost of resource investment. As experts in quantification,
we believe we hold one of the most robust rapid methods that
provides quantitative data on contamination levels.
SalQuant enables an accelerated time-to-result for pathogen
testing that generates faster decision-making, improved productivity
and competitive advantage with reduced quantitation results from
several days to 12 hours. "
" This new patent not only strengthens our intellectual property
position in quantification but also confirms our strategic commitment
to developing innovative diagnostics that improve the health
of people and animals in our shared environment, " concluded
Amanda Manolis, Vice President Global Marketing and Product
Management at Hygiena.
