Ferns provide model for tiny motors powered by evaporation
Scientists looked to ferns to create a novel energy scavenging device that uses the power of evaporation to move itself---materials that could provide a method for powering micro and nano devices with just water or heat. "We've shown that this idea works," said Michel Maharbiz, assistant professor of electrical engineering and computer science and principal investigator in the group that b...RVT405DDA Refrigerated Vapor Trap from Thermo Scientific
Description:The RVT405DDA Refrigerated Vapor Trap is specifically designed for efficient trapping of high boiling solvents such as DMSO and DMF in the SpeedVac™ DDA™ systems. Its constant temperature refrigeration system set at -5 C creates optimum cryopumping conditions for DMSO, while completely eliminating the risk of vapor freezing in the manifold....RVT4104 Refrigerated Vapor Trap from Thermo Scientific
Description:Effectively condenses and traps a wide variety of solvent vapors that can contaminate and degrade vacuum pump oil. Easy-to-use glass condensation flask (GCF400) allows for the collection of liquid into a self contained jar for easy draining. Rapid cooling time minimizes waiting period. Digital Dis...RVT400 Refrigerated Vapor Trap from Thermo Scientific

Scientists at San Francisco based the University of California have demonstrated that vaporising cannabis leaves can release the drugs active ingredient just as effectively as burning them, while avoiding the harmful toxins inhaled through smoking it. The results of the pilot study are significant because marijuana is used medicinally as a pain reliever for multiple-sclerosis suffe...VaporTrode® Vaporization Electrodes
Description:Until now, the resection of a myoma was performed with a cutting loop. Now ACMI™ offers an alternative vaporization of myomas with the VaporTrode Vaporization Electrodes. These electrodes vaporize myomas without creating tissue chips that obscure visibility. No tissue chips to clear means shorter O.R. time. This unique design provides areas of high current density at the points of tissue c...USA Elite System™ & USA Series™ Grooved VaporTome® Vaporization Electrode
Description:ACMI™ offers five classes of resectoscope electrodes for urological procedures including vaporization, cutting loops, knife, roller bar & ball, and coagulating. Together they are the only electrodes specifically integrated into the ACMI resectoscope. This ensures surgical tissue removal with minimal bleeding, increased visibility, and decreased procedure time, because only ACMI knows the pr...Vapro Vapor Pressure Osmometer
Description:The menu-driven Vapro osmometer determines osmolality at room temperature with the sample in natural equilibrium. What you don't get are cryoscopic artifacts due to high viscosity, suspended particles, or other conditions that interfere with freezing point determinations. The superbly accurate (1 percent in the clinical range) Vapro osmometer has a much broader range of error-free applicati...
