For decades HEKA provides the finest Patch Clamp Amplifier and acquisition system. Explore our workstations at the booth that combine HEKA patch clamp amplifier and our Warner instruments. The new S-Probe, a small head stage, is shown. Experience what our patch clamp software can do for you. A specialist will demonstrate and provide basic training on PATCHMASTER. Visit us and see our latest updates.

HORIBA Scientific: One Step Ahead! Introducing a revolutionary new fluorescence/ UV-Vis spectrometer. Stop by our booth to see the new shape and unparalleled speed of things to come! HORIBA Scientific is the world leader in fluorescence instrumentation offering the widest range of sensitive, flex- ible, simple and affordable steady state and lifetime fluorometers, as well as intracellular Calcium Ion/FRET fluorescence imaging sys- tems. Stop by for a demonstration on one of our six working fluorescence systems on display at this year’s exhibit.

IOP Publishing provides a range of journals, books, websites, magazines, conference pro- ceedings and services through which leading- edge scientific research is distributed world- wide. Extending to more than 20 journals IOP biosciences is dedicated to providing the essential content covering all areas of medi- cal physics, biophysics and biomedical engi- neering. Visit iopscience.org/biosciences IOP ebooksTM is an award-winning book pro- gramme that brings together innovative digital publishing with leading voices in scientific, technical, engineering and medical (STEM). www.iopscience.org/books. ISS activities include two product lines: the fluorescence analytical division (spectrofluo- rometers for time-resolved /steady-state flu- orescence measurements) and the medical division (for absolute measurements of oxy- gen saturation in brain and muscle tissue). A variety of modular components complements the instrumentation: laser diodes, LEDs, high pressure cell and fiber optic sensors amongst an extensive line of accessories; data acquisi- tion cards for FCS and FLIM, laser launchers, galvo-scanning mirrors and detector units. Applications include FRET, FLIM, FCS, FCCS, PCH, STED, NIRS. ISS Inc 719 1602 Newton Drive Champaign, IL 61822 www.iss.com

Ionovation represents a wealth of experience in the development and application of modern electrophysiological and fluorescence tech- niques. Our product line comprises automated benchtop workstations for the electrophysi- ological and optical single molecule recording, as well as unique optical tweezers for single particle manipulation, force spectroscopy and scanning probe microscopy. The primary mis- sion of our company is to always provide state-of-the-art technology and services for sophisticated research tasks to the scientific as well as industrial markets.

HIGH THROUGHPUT SCREENING FOR ENANTIOMERIC EXCESS Hinds Instruments has 45 years of experience in polarization measurement. Our Photoelastic Modulator (PEM) technology is present in most circular dichroism instrumentation. Today, we formal- ly announce a CD Spectrometer for reading micro well plates, the CDMicroplate Reader™. This system allows users to rapidly screen up to 96 or 384 reactions for enantiomeric excess. Well plates may be rapidly screened at one wavelength at one second per well or the user may measure the entire spectrum for each well.
