Ultrasonic Scientific, innovator in High-Resolution Ultrasonic Spectroscopy (HR-US) for material analysis, is holding on-booth seminars at Pittcon 2004, Chicago.

The seminars will take place 12 noon and 3pm March 8-10 (Mon-Wed), and 12 noon March 11 (Thurs) on booth number 4178.

Given by world authorities on ultrasound technology, the seminars provide an open forum for questions about how HR-US technology can be applied to specific application problems.

The seminars also address analytical problems facing the pharmaceutical, food, polymer and petroleum industries, and include demonstrations of the HR-US solutions as well as the revolutionary new Titration Kinetic Analyser, which is being launched at Pittcon 2004.

Ultrasonic Scientific is also offering visitors to booth number 4178 FREE cream liqueur ice cream, which is being sampled as part of the on-booth seminars on how HR-US instruments can be used to effectively solve problems such as crystallinity and emulsion stability among many others.

Questions such as "How can you measure the exact point of destabilisation without having to dilute your emulsion?" will be addressed whilst enjoying luxury Baileys liqueur ice cream.

Unlike classical spectroscopic techniques such as UV/visible and fluorescence spectrophotometric assays, ultrasound allows the analysis of a broad variety of samples including opaque materials such as ice cream.

This is because most materials are ultrasonically transparent even if they are not optically transparent (which is a necessary requirement when traditional optical techniques are used).

The HR-US technique also allows the probing of intermolecular forces in the sample, thus providing new information about its interior.

To find out more about the use of HR-US technology for addressing analytical problems, simply visit booth number 4178 at 12 noon or 3pm March 8-10, or 12 noon March 11.
