The second-generation MQC benchtop nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) analyzer features improvements that help maximize laboratory bench workspace. It has a more compact size and an internal computer with operator interface, so no external PC is required. The MQC’s magnet, computer and electronics are contained in two separate housings, making it possible to place the electronics on the floor below the bench or on a shelf above. In addition to the space-saving improvements, the new version of the MQC also features interchangeable probes that allow different sample sizes, including a new liquid variable temperature probe, and a small magnet that can generate a very homogeneous field. The MQC can be used for determining oil content in seeds, foods, wax and rubber, and can help check quality in construction materials and personal care products. — Oxford Instruments America Inc., Concord, Mass.
