The new line is designed for experiments involving small animals in either the student or basic research laboratory. Based on the standard U-frame design, the instruments offer several new features, including: scales that face the open end of the Uframe, the typical working position of the researcher; a secure lock on the tilting mechanism; and a custom lead screw for a faster drive. Both single- and dual-manipulator models are available. Stoelting Co., Wood Dale, IL Circle No. 202 on Reader Service Card

---- Molecular Dynamics' Vistra FluorImager SI is a system for quantitative analysis of fluorescent gels, blots, thin-layer chromatography (TLC), and microplates. It holds larger samples than can be accommodated in Molecular Dynamics' FluorImager 575 system, the product it replaces. The larger sample capacity allows researchers to use standard, long-format, glasssandwiched gels, which are popular for human identification and other onedimensional gel applications. The...
