MUNICH – Analytica 2012– (April 17, 2012) – Thermo Fisher Scientific Inc., the world leader in serving science, is showcasing the Thermo Scientific Gallery Plus discrete photometric analyzer, with a broad menu of industrial and environmental analytes, during Analytica 2012. The easy to operate bench-top instrument allows food, beverage and water analysis laboratories to simplify their testing and improve productivity. The company is featuring the Gallery Plus™ analyzer within Thermo Scientific booth 101/202 (Hall B1) during Analytica 2012, being held April 17–20, in Munich.

The Gallery Plus analyzer enables rapid analysis times and lower cost per analysis by offering powerful features such as simultaneous analysis of several parameters from one sample, automated dilutions and various blanking possibilities. The Gallery Plus analyzer also offers superior analytical performance for colorimetric and enzymatic measurements. Laboratories can measure conductivity and pH with an optional electrochemical (ECM) unit and the Gallery Plus analyzer offers very low detection levels, particularly important in laboratories performing water quality testing.

Ready-to-use liquid reagents eliminate reagent preparation and save time, while the volume- optimized system kits minimize reagent waste. With a wide selection of system reagents for different sugars and acids, for example, the Gallery Plus analyzer is an ideal system for economically and easily monitoring fermentation processes. For water analysis, the system reagent menu covers the most important parameters such as sulphate, phosphate, calcium, magnesium, chloride, nitrite and nitrate.

The Gallery Plus analyzer has a capacity of up to 350 tests per hour. Its on-board sample capacity is 54, and there are 42 reagent positions. Users have the flexibility to load samples and reagents at any time without interrupting analysis. A self-guiding user interface is easy to learn, further streamlining operation and information management. Request querying and result reporting can be linked electronically to a laboratory information management system (LIMS) for further automation and time savings.
