Abstract: A dispenser (1) for liquid droplets of the order of 30 mul or less in volume. The dispenser (1) comprises a metering valve body (2) having a main bore (3) connected by a pipe (4) to a pressurised liquid delivery source (not shown). The body (2) comprises a base (5) from which is mounted a nozzle (6) projecting above the base (5) to form a valve seat (7). An actuating coil assembly (11) is mounted on the exterior of the body (2) for moving a floating valve boss (15) of a ferromagnetic material. Sensing coils (20, 21) are mounted around and spaced-apart along the body (2) forming part of a valve boss detector. The valve boss detector acts as a positional movement detector so that the opening and closing of the valve can be accurately controlled and bouncing of the valve boss (15) either against an end stop (9) or on the valve seat (7) can be greatly minimized, if not prevented fully, by careful operation of the actuating coil assembly (11).

Abstract: A viscosity and viscoelasticity measuring instrument has a cam, a follower arm, a flat spring, a plate fixture, and a removable plate assembly. The cam is a rotating circular disk with a spiral slot. A cam follower on the follower arm resides in the spiral slot so that the follower arm pivots about its fixed end as the cam rotates. The spring is attached to and collinear with the fixed end of the follower arm so that the spring pivots in the opposite direction as the follower arm. The removable plate assembly has a lower plate and an upper plate with mating sample surfaces on which test fluid is placed. The lower plate fits into a lower jaw of the plate fixture that is attached to the instrument base. The upper plate fits into an upper jaw of the plate fixture attached to the free end of the spring. A fluid is placed on the lower sample surface. The cam rotates, pushing the follower arm up, causing the spring to pivot down, and pressing the sample surfaces together. The cam is reversed, causing the spring to impart a separation force to the plates. The time it takes for the plates to separate is measured and converted to a viscosity value.

Abstract: A method and apparatus are provided for optimizing a liquid chromatography/mass spectrometry system for gradient elution. A temperature profile is determined according to which a gas is flowed into an atmospheric pressure ionization interface for vaporizing a matrix flowed into the interface from a liquid chromatography column. A flow profile is determined according to which the gas is flowed into the interface for preventing entry of the matrix into the mass spectrometer when the matrix does not include an analyte for which detection is desired. The determination of the temperature and flow profiles is based on the characteristics of the matrix as it eludes from column into the interface. A heat control device and a flow control device can be provided for implementing the temperature profile and flow profile, respectively. The heating control device and flow control device can be programmed or controlled by software.
