NEW PRODUCTS

Micronic – 2.00ml External Thread Tubes

Micronic releases a one-of-a-kind tube-rack combination, the 2.00ml Tube with External Thread in 96-5 Rack, that allows researchers to store high volume samples in a space-efficient 96-well format. The tube provides an extraordinary storage capacity of 1.55ml.

The high-volume tubes are designed with thick tube walls for long-term sample storage and can be used to store samples down to -80°C. They are standardly provided with 2D Data-Matrix codes which are permanently laser-etched onto an inseparable black code surface on the bottom of each tube. Because the codes can never wear or fall off the tubes, absolute sample traceability is guaranteed.

TECHNICAL REPORTS

Finneran Porvair – Confidently Perform Cannabis Extraction
with Porvair Sciences Deep Well Plate

With increasing legalization of cannabis for medicinal and research purposes, demand for accurate and high-throughput analysis of its active ingredients has dramatically risen.

Cannabis plant material contains several cannabinoids for which the human brain has evolved receptors. The two most important are the psychoactive tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) and the analgesic cannabidiol (CBD) which has therapeutic uses. The ratio of THC and CBD is crucial for differentiating medicinal marijuana which has higher CBD and lower THC versus recreational cannabis, which has higher THC. This ratio is important for taxation authorities, medical regulators and growers alike, and for determining the use of the end product.
