At Pittcon 2012, Bruker Corporation today announced several new
product introductions for the research, industrial and applied
markets, designed to deliver confident analyses with increased
sensitivity, specificity and productivity, and to push the
boundaries of advanced molecular and materials research
applications. The new Bruker products introduced at Pittcon 2012
include:

ionBooster™: This new high-temperature electrospray ion
source boost the sensitivity of Bruker mass spectrometers for
environmental analysis, food testing and forensics. Sensitivity
gains for many compounds of 5x to 100x greatly extend the
quantitative capabilities of modern accurate-mass mass
spectrometers, such as Bruker’s unique maXis™ ultra-high
resolution Qq-TOF systems. Inside the ionBooster, an
electrospray is maintained at elevated vaporizing temperature to
enable enhanced desolvation of analyte ions, even at high flow
rates in UHPLC separations. Delivering more efficient ionization,
the ionBooster enhances sensitivity and lowers detection
limits.
MICRO™ Series: This new high-flux Small (SAXS) and Wide
Angle X-ray Scattering (WAXS) system is intended for research,
development and quality control in bio-medical and pharmaceutical
applications. Utilizing an air-cooled high-brilliance micro-focus
X-ray source, it provides superior performance beyond widely used
rotating anode sources, while avoiding complexity, significant
maintenance, and operating costs. In particular, the new Bruker
MICROCalix™ system enables ground-breaking simultaneous SAXS
and calorimetry investigations, contributing to a better
understanding of the properties of biological nanostructures.
TANGO™: The new, compact FT-NIR (Fourier Transform Near
Infrared) spectrometer TANGO offers efficient and
cost-effective analysis for the identification and quantification
of constituents in a wide variety of application fields in the
food, feed, chemical and pharmaceutical industries. The GMP and 21
CFR Part 11 compliant TANGO is a robust, small footprint,
very easy to use benchtop system with touch-screen operation for
routine users, and further expands Bruker’s industry-leading FT-NIR
product range.
HI90™: The new Bruker Hyperspectral Imaging system HI
90 is an imaging remote chemical sensing system based on the
combination of a Michelson interferometer with a focal plane array
detector. A major field of applications of the HI 90 system
is homeland security. The HI 90 allows fast identification
and imaging of hazardous gases from long distances. Other
applications range from atmospheric research, geology and
volcanology to industrial applications such as leak detection,
emissions measurement, and industrial safety. The new HI 90
represents a new ultra-high performance hyperspectral imaging
system in Bruker’s remote sensing product line, which also consists
of the Scanning Infrared Gas Imaging System SIGIS 2 for
homeland security and scientific applications, the mil-spec 360
degree scanning stand-off detector RAPID, as well as the
ultra-high spectral resolution FTIR spectrometer IFS 125 for
scientific applications in atmospheric research.
CompassCDS 3.0: This industry focused,
operator-friendly and networked chromatography software solution
eliminates the costs associated with licensing of named users. With
its unique capacity for customization, CompassCDS provides
operators with a powerful tool for a variety of analytical
operations. Available as a standalone or fully networked
client/server application, CompassCDS meets a broad range of
customer’s requirements. Designed for 24/7 production environments
with current Windows versions as well as with Virtualized and
Citrix metaframe installations, CompassCDS controls all
current Bruker gas chromatographs (GCs), and GC custom analyzers
manufactured for specific industrial analytical applications.
CryoProbe™ Prodigy: A game-changer in routine
small molecule NMR, the affordable NMR CryoProbe Prodigy™
delivers up to a 3-fold sensitivity boost and 10-fold throughput
enhancement at an attractive price. The broadband, multinuclear
Prodigy 5 mm NMR probe now delivers a ‘300 MHz-equivalent
sensitivity boost’ for an expanded range of 400, 500 and 600 MHz
high-resolution NMR systems. Using cooled RF coils and
preamplifiers, Prodigy offers a sensitivity enhancement over
conventional probes of a factor of 2x-3x for X-nuclei from 15N to
31P, and of 2x on the proton channel.
CMC-assist™ : The first NMR software tool to
enable seamless, integrated routine workflow from acquisition to
molecular structure report generation is CMC-assist (CMC:
Complete Molecular Confidence) Delivering support where it’s
needed, CMC-assist assigns the NMR signals to structural
characteristics, conducts a structural consistency assessment and
completes the spectral analysis. Results are collated into compact
reports for easy transfer of information into publications, lab
journals or patent applications.
Frank H. Laukien, Ph.D., Bruker's President and CEO, commented:
"At Pittcon 2012, Bruker is introducing three new infrared and
X-ray systems to the North American market, while also introducing
key new products that dramatically enhance sensitivity in mass
spectrometry and NMR. Two new software solutions enhance workflow
in NMR and laboratory operations and throughput in GC. With
compact, easy-to-use, affordable, yet high performance products we
can gain access to broader markets and expand our presence in many
routine quality control, applied and industrial market segments,
while maintaining our excellent reputation in the research
community."
