Tomorrow we’re are exhibiting at The Advanced Materials Show
On Wednesday and Thursday, July 10th & 11th, we are in Telford for the combined Advanced Materials and Ceramics UK shows.
If you are attending, drop by our stand (1211) to talk to us about the broad range of equipment we offer for researchers in materials science.
From Digital Holographic Microscopes from Lyncée Tec and Confocal Raman Microscopes from WITec, to vibrating sample magnetometers and probe stations from Lake Shore Cryotronics. We can also offer vibration isolation solutions from Accurion and Kinetic Systems of Boston.
We look forward to seeing you.
WITec are at MMC in Manchester from Monday

The Microscience Microscopy Congress (MMC) takes place from Monday, July 1st to Thursday the 4th at Manchester Central.
With 36 conference sessions, an exhibition with more than 100 companies, workshops, training opportunities and a busy social programme it’s the must-attend event for the UK’s microscopy community.
WITec, pioneers of commercial 3D Raman imaging and correlative microscopy are exhibiting on Stand 331 and Elliot Scientific will be supporting them.
The company continues to lead the industry with a unique product portfolio that offers speed, sensitivity and resolution without compromise. Raman, AFM, SNOM and SEM (RISE) microscopes, and combinations thereof, are offered for specific challenges in chemical and structural characterisation through a modular hardware architecture and flexible software combination.
Raman Microscopy for Microparticle Analysis Webinar

Early next week, a webinar entitled Raman Microscopy for Microparticle Analysis: Find, Classify and Identify is being broadcast by WITec and Nature.
It takes place on Tuesday, June 4th at 16:00 BST, that is 08:00 PDT, 11:00 EDT, and 17:00 CEST.
Dr. David Steinmetz and Dr. Miriam Böhmler from WITec GmbH will give an introduction to Raman microscopy and automated particle analysis.
They will be followed by Dr. Natalia Ivleva, from TU Munich, who will present her work on microplastic pollution in environmental samples as an application example.
For more information and registration, please visit the webinar homepage.
16th Confocal Raman Imaging Symposium announced

Speakers from Germany, the USA and China will be at the 16th Confocal Raman Imaging Symposium being organised by our friends WITec in September.
Running from the 23rd to the 25th in Ulm, Germany, the symposium will cover aspects of modern Raman imaging and include a poster session detailing recent results in Raman imaging from various scientific fields.
An in-depth introduction to the operational principles and instrumental configurations relevant to confocal Raman microscopy will also be held at the equipment demonstrations.
During the three-day conference participants will be able to have in-depth discussions and networking opportunities with leading scientists and users of WITec microscope systems.
So, if you’re a scientist interested in chemically identifying and imaging samples at the highest spatial resolution, sign up here.
Meet us at Focus on Microscopy 2019 from Sunday

The Focus on Microscopy (FOM2019) conference and exhibition begins this Sunday morning, April 14th, at the QEII Conference Centre in London, and runs for four long days.
FOM is an annual event that takes places in various countries around the world, presenting the latest innovations in optical microscopy and their application in biology, medicine and the material sciences. Topics will cover:
- 3D optical imaging and image processing
- Adaptive optics for microscopy
- Coherent non-linear microscopies
- Confocal and multiphoton-excitation microscopy
- Correlated microscopies, light/electron
- Developments in resolution and imaging
- Fluorescence image, labelling and spectroscopy
- Laser manipulation and tracking
- Light sheet microscopy
- OCT and holographic endoscopy
- Phase/interference based microscopies
- Raman spectroscopy imaging
- Super-resolution nanoscopy
- … and more
Elliot Scientific will be on stand 2 at the sold-out exhibition. We will be featuring Accurion active anti-vibration products; ultra-bright LED light sources from Prizmatix; and manipulators, stages and other microscopy accessories by Siskiyou.
Come and chat to us about our Optical Tweezer systems, digital holographic microscopes (DHM) from Lyncée Tec, and WITec confocal Raman imaging microscopes. We also offer Patch Clamp amplifiers manufactured by Tecella and the Kinetic Systems’ passive anti-vibration table and platform range, as well as HOLOEYE SLMs and CRAIC Technologies’ microanalysis systems.
For readers keen on acronyms and abbreviations, here a selection to get your teeth into: FCS, FLIM, FRAP, FRET, GSDIM, PALM, SHG, SIM, SOFI, STED, STORM, THG, and TIRF

WITec Raman imaging system installed in our lab for training

We’ve just installed a WITec apyron Raman imaging system in our demonstration lab here in Harpenden. The apyron was developed by WITec to straddle the boundary between ease-of-use and the ultimate in conformal capability. As such, it is ideal for:
- Labs with multiple users of varied skill levels and requirements
- Raman newcomers requiring advanced imaging
- Accomplished Raman spectroscopists seeking superior performance
- Industrial labs doing repeat experiments within limited time periods
apyron sets the benchmark for automated Raman imaging systems; delivering excellent images with outstanding spectral and spatial resolution. The ultra-fast acquisition times and exceptional signal sensitivity, combined with automated system configurations and intuitive measurement procedures, make the award-winning apyron the instrument of choice for many labs.
Now you can have the chance to experience the system first-hand. We will be running Raman imaging workshops in the near future, so watch this space.
In the meantime, for more information please visit WITec Raman imaging systems or contact us.
