MS Instrument Receives R&D 100 Award
Sep 15 2011
Spectro Analytical Instruments was named among the winners of the 49th annual R&D 100 Awards for the development of array detection technology for mass spectrometers along with the technology’s co-developers—Pacific Northwest National Laboratory, the University of Arizona, Indiana University and iMAGERLABS.
Spectro was cited for its role in the commercialisation of the breakthrough technology with the introduction of the Spectro MS inductively coupled plasma (ICP) mass spectrometer in March 2010. The instrument also was awarded a 2010 Silver Pittcon Editors’ Award for Best New Product at the 2010 Pittsburgh Conference and a 2011 Annual Conference of China Scientific Instruments (ACCSI) Award as “one of the best new instruments 2010”.
“We are extremely pleased to be selected along with our codevelopers for this prestigious award,” comments Manfred Bergsch, Managing Director, Spectro Analytical Instruments GmbH, Kleve, Germany. “It confirms our belief that Spectro MS represents a breakthrough that changes ICP mass spectrometry forever.
“With its ability to simultaneously measure the complete elemental spectrum, we believe the Spectro MS will
revolutionise the mass spectrometry market the same way the introduction of simultaneous optical emission spectrometers did several years ago,” he adds.
Established by the editors of R&D magazine in 1963, the R&D 100 Award is presented annually to the 100 most significant new developments in research and development as determined by an independent panel of judges and the editors of R&D.
