Beckman Coulter Life Sciences 616 5350 Lakeview Parkway South Drive Indianapolis, IN 46268 www.beckman.com/home Beckman Coulter Life Sciences develops, man- ufactures and markets products that simplify, automate and innovate complex biomedical testing. For more than 75 years, our products have been making a difference in people’s lives by improving the productivity of medical professionals and scientists, supplying criti- cal information for improving patient health and delivering trusted solutions for research and discovery. Scientists use our life science research instruments to study complex bio- logical problems including causes of disease and potential new therapies or drugs. The Biophysics Collaborative Access Team (BioCAT), supported by NIH, operate a national user facility at the Advanced Photon Source, Argonne National Laboratory, to study the structure and dynamics of biological systems at the molecular level. The primary research techniques supported are 1) static, time resolved, and spatially resolved fiber (muscle, connective tissue, nucleic acids and amyloids) diffraction. 2) static and time-resolved scat- tering studies of macromolecules in solution for the study of protein/nucleic acid folding, protein/ligand interactions, and the structure of complexes.

Bio-Logic USA is the leading manufacturer of stopped flow, quench flow, and freeze quench mixers for examining reaction kinetics in bio- chemistry, molecular biology, and biophys- ics. The SFM-4000 series of mixers deliver dead times of 200microseconds or faster, with asymmetrical mixing, modular design, and unsurpassed performance. They can be con- nected to spectrometers, x-ray and neutron lines, and EPR systems. The MOS-500 spectro- polarimeter delivers auto-optimized perfor- mance from near IR to UV in CD, LD, absor- bance, fluorescence, and anisotropy modes. Sample handling options include cuvette, dry powder, magnetic CD, peltier tempera- ture control, and more. The MOS-500 can be used standalone or with the SFM-4000 series stopped flow mixers.

The technology leader in Atomic Force Microscopy will feature the Cypher VRS, the first and only fully-featured research AFM that enables video rate imaging of dynamic biomo- lecular processes in air and in liquid. Until now, this capability was only available on AFMs built solely for video rate imaging with limited capabilities such as sample size. The Cypher VRS enables high quality imaging at over 625 lines per second, corresponding to about 10 frames per second. This speed greatly exceeds other “fast scanning” AFMs, by a factor of at least 5-10X. The Cypher VRS also features the full range of modes and accessories supported with its environmental scanner, including heat- ing and cooling.
