Fluorescence Dynamics 3120 National Sciences II University of California, Irvine

Irvine, CA 92697 www.lfd.uci.edu

JASCO will be exhibiting a range of bio- physical characterization tools including Circular Dichroism, Fluorescence and FTIR instrumentation. The Jasco J-1000 Series Spectrophotometers provide an optical bench specifically designed for high sensitivity mea- surements in the far- and near-UV regions. Temperature control systems can be coupled with multi-position cells to run thermal melts. Automated high-throughput CD can obtain measurements on up to 192 samples with- out user intervention, saving both time and money. Microsampling cells provide measure- ments on sample volumes as low as 2 micro- liters.

Leica Microsystems develops and manufac- tures microscopes and scientific instruments for the analysis of microstructures and nano- structures. The company is one of the market leaders in compound and stereo microscopy, digital microscopy, confocal laser scanning microscopy and optical coherence tomogra- phy.

The Laboratory for Fluorescence Dynamics (LFD) is a national research resource center for biomedical fluorescence spectroscopy, sup- ported by the National Institute of Health (NIGMS) and the University of California, Irvine (UCI). Main activities: Services and Resources: state-of-the-art lab for fluorescence measure- ments, microscopy, spectroscopy. Research and Development: design, test, and imple- ment advances in the technology of hardware, software, biomedical applications. Training and Dissemination: disseminates knowledge of fluorescence spectroscopic principles, instrumentation, applications.

LUMICKS

De Boelelaan 1085 Amsterdam Netherlands www.lumicks.com

LUMICKS brings to market revolutionary sin- gle-molecule technologies that enable – for the first time – visualization of molecular interactions and acoustic manipulation of bio- molecules. These breakthroughs are allowing scientists to understand life to the smallest detail, which is critical for cancer research and drug development. Our optical tweezers- fluorescence microscopy (C-Trap™), acoustic manipulation (AFS™) and microfluidics system (u-Flux™) instruments are ready-to-use, so that scientists can focus on their experiments and breakthrough science.

7604 Sandia Loop Austin, TX 78735 www.kintekcorp.com

Larodan develops, manufactures and mar- kets a comprehensive range of high qual- ity, research grade Lipids for the international market. Lipids are biologically important for energy storage and signalling and as structural components. Lipid related compounds are becoming increasingly relevant not only in bio- scientific research and food science, but also in material engineering and traditional industry. We manufacture lipids both by extraction and purification from natural sources and syntheti- cally. Our products are used in a number of fields within scientific research and product development.

KinTek is the world leader for the highest qual- ity state-of-the-art kinetic analysis. We offer premier research instruments supported by first-class service. At the meeting we will show our new Auto-Stopped-Flow with optional robotic sample loader, offering the highest signal using the smallest sample volumes, and our Rapid Chemical/Freeze-Quench-Flow instruments. New advances in KinTek Explorer software for dynamic simulation and fitting of kinetic data will be revealed – available for PC and Mac. See our Exhibitor Presentation on KinTek Explorer software.
