LGC was an early adopter of NTA technology, and has worked consistently closely with the NanoSight product development team of scientists in improving NTA software so that it allows for more accurate measurement of nanoparticle populations in the high serum concentrations which reflect those encountered in toxicology models. LGC was also chosen by Malvern Panalytical to beta-test the flow-based concentration upgrade designed specifically for this purpose. Phil Vincent, Development Scientist at Malvern Panalytical says, “LGC has provided expert application support to aid the development of our nanoparticle tracking technology. Their forward-thinking approach has made them willing candidates for beta testing new concepts and providing valuable feedback which has helped shape parts of our technology.”

In their search for a SEC-MALS detector, the UCI group, led by Dr. Fishman, considered a variety of manufacturers, directly comparing between the Viscotek SEC-MALS 20 and its closest competitors. They had previously worked with Malvern Panalytical systems, and again found that the quality of the SEC-MALS 20, in terms of both build and quality of data, and also the technical support offered by Malvern Panalytical were, as Dr. Fishman states, “an unbeatable argument in the decision-making process.” He continued, “I can say without hesitation that the level of customer support has been unprecedented. Malvern Panalytical specialists have been instrumental in our understanding of the concept of triple detection chromatography. They are constantly guiding our students and postdocs to develop experimental intuition, correct understanding of their data, and fine tuning of the experimental conditions. Their support is always available through countless phone and video conference calls, and same day email correspondence. It is no exaggeration to say that we consider them part of our research team.”

Yara’s Siilinjärvi mine has been in continuous operation since 1979. The carbonatite deposit is mined in two large open pits and is subsequently processed on-site to extract apatite from the host rock with tailings stored in a tailings pond. Yara is continuously investing in guaranteeing that their operations are safe, reliable and profitable at the same time. When they noticed that production recovery and quality of the apatite concentrate were sometimes below their target values, they consulted PANalytical for a possible solution of these problems.
