This month saw the end of Windows 10, but if you’re one of the labs with a 5973N MSD stuck in a Windows 7 time warp, now is the right time to invest in a backup Windows 7 PC as an insurance policy before compatible PCs all end up in the scrap heap in the sky.

Just done a desk study for a lab doing VOC analysis. Spectrometrics technology can let them scale down to 10 mL vials saving TWO tonnes of waste glass per GC-MS system per year, HALVE their costs on calibration and QC standards, and save 10% on vial costs (£2000/yr).
