SOUTH SAN FRANCISCO, CA--(Marketwire - Aug 29, 2011) - American Laboratory, a leading publication for the laboratory industry, announced today the August 2011 issue is now available. Focused on key areas in the laboratory industry, this issue's top articles include:
- While increasingly sophisticated technologies have been
developed to detect and treat human health, we need to proactively apply
similar technologies and a health-focused mindset toward taking care of
our planet, according to "Environmental Testing: Paving the Path Toward a Healthier Earth."
- "A System Approach to Automated Scanning Electron Microscopy" describes an integrated, solution-driven approach to scanning electron
microscope technology. This represents a different way of thinking about
SEM performance and has fostered a "system" approach to SEM design.
- Vane-in-cylinder rheology is useful for testing small amounts of materials in a well-defined geometry, as explained in "Small-Scale Vane Rheometry." The method gives meaningful data for materials that may exhibit slip and for those that may yield.
