BERLIN -- Caroline Berlage, a former student at PicoQuant, is one of this year’s winners of the prestigious Physik-Studienpreis awarded by the Physikalische Gesellschaft zu Berlin.
Berlage studied physics at the Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin and carried out the experimental work for her master's thesis from 2016 to 2019 at PicoQuant as well as the laboratory of professor Oliver Benson.
Rainer Erdmann, the company’s managing director, said Berlage used a promising new technique to count molecules based on the photon antibunching effect. A central aspect of her work was to systematically investigate this method for imaging artificial as well as biological samples under a wide range of experimental conditions.
The prizes were awarded on July 11 during an open ceremony at the MagnusHaus in Berlin.
Consistent and viable representation of sample preparation leads to more accurate and repeatable results for analysis. Obstacles in handling or reducing materials with varied sample size, moisture levels, physical attributes, and material sensitivity create additional challenges in critical analysis. Obtaining a representative sample from an entire batch can be variable, complex, and time consuming. This is more complex when faced with a diverse sample load. While difficult, sample preparation is one of the...
Introduction
We sat down with our senior application development manager for groundwater, Adam Hobson, to talk about the benefits and challenges of low-flow sampling and how In-Situ instruments and software can help.
In-Situ: First things first – why might someone need to take a groundwater sample?
Adam: Because not all water chemistry can be determined by field sensors. Groundwater sampling involves removing a volume of water from a well and analyzing it for the parameters you’re interested in. You...
NorayBio held the first NorayBanks Meeting on June the 2nd in Barcelona to present to customers and other interested centres its new product, NorayBanks Catalogue.
NorayBanks Catalogue is a website that will make any biobank’s activity visible, publishing its catalogue of samples automatically. It will facilitate the search of samples for the scientific community and will allow the complete management of requests of received samples, as well as the creation of collaborative catalogues between different...
