Liquid Crystal Sensor offers Breakthrough for Rapid COVID-19 Diagnostic Test
Researchers at OSU have designed a liquid crystal (LC) based diagnostic kit and a smartphone-based application to enable automatic detection of SARS-CoV-2 ssRNA, which could be used for reliable self-test of SARS-CoV-2 at home without the need for complex equipment or procedures. See how Linkam’s Peltier stage was in volved in the research.
In the press: Linkam Temperature-Controlled Stage Used in Research for Mars Missions
NASA’s Mars 2020 Perseverance rover will land on Mars on 18 February 2021, to search for signs of life and explore the planet's geology. The rover will explore the Jezero Crater to characterise the planet's ancient climate and geology, and will be the first mission to collect and cache Martian rock and regolith. The subsequent 2022 mission of the ExoMars programme will deliver a European rover and a Russian surface platform to the surface of Mars to search for signs of life.

A team of scientists set out to understand how and why lasers trigger crystallization and how changes made to the properties of the laser could influence which crystal form would be generated. Researchers working with Prof. Klaas Wynne of The School of Chemistry at the University of Glasgow have used the Linkam THMS600 temperature-controlled stage to explore phase transitions in mixed liquid systems and laser-induced nucleation.
In the Press: Cryo-Correlative Fluorescence and Electron Microscopy With Linkam’s CMS196V³ Stage
The Linkam CMS196V³ is a cryo-CLEM instrument designed to facilitate the full workflow of CLEM. As well as maintaining the sample, it provides proven capabilities of safe handling of the sample, making it a simple and reliable process for transferring and imaging cryo samples with an optical microscope, while keeping them free of contamination at all times. With a short-start up time and an optional autofill system providing up to 6 hours of continuous, uninterrupted use, the CMS196V3 is time-efficient and increases workflow productivity. Furthermore, it enables co-ordinate mapping, required to locate the same sample in the fluorescence or Electron microscope.
