ASD pioneered the science of field spectroscopy over 25 years ago and continues to lead the industry with the world’s most trusted field-portable UV/Vis/NIR/SWIR spectroradiometers covering the full solar reflected spectrum.

The ASD FieldSpec 4 line of full-range spectroradiometers delivers the fastest and most accurate spectral field measurements available from any commercial field-portable spectroradiometer. Continued enhancements to core instrument spectrometers and other critical components have dramatically improved overall performance, signal, and integration speeds compared to earlier models.

ASD FieldSpec 4 spectroradiometers are designed specifically around the challenges researchers face when collecting spectral measurements in the field.

The ASD LabSpec line of laboratory instrumentation offers laboratory-grade performance in a ruggedized, portable design suitable for benchtop analysis or transport to the sample location. ASD LabSpec analytical instrumentation performs rapid, non-destructive materials analysis for qualitative and quantitative applications.

The ASD LabSpec 4 product line utilizes the same spectrometer configurations as ASD’s FieldSpec line of spectroradiometers, long recognized as the “gold standard” in portable near-infrared (NIR) field spectroscopy. Employing this state-of-the-art NIR technology, these portable lab instruments can quickly and nondestructively measure a wide range of materials with absolute precision.

The ASD LabSpec spectrometer is easily adaptable for a wide range of analytical applications. For those applications requiring a spectrophotometer, the ASD LabSpec is available with a built in fiber optic light source.

Optimized for rapid analysis, ASD LabSpec 4 spectrometers are the ideal analytical instruments for fast-moving laboratory environments, providing instant results with no sample preparation.

The QualitySpec line of NIR analyzers provides customers in industrial environments the tools necessary to perform rapid, precise, non-destructive measurements. Pair our powerful NIR sensors with calibration modeling services from ASD’s SummitCAL Solutions Team for a full materials analysis solution.

The ASD TerraSpec line of mineral analyzers provide portable, rapid and non-destructive analysis of minerals in the lab or the field. Exploration geologists appreciate the ASD TerraSpec mineral analyzer’s portability and ability to rapidly identify key minerals. When used as an ore analyzer, results are presented in seconds to speed ore processing decisions.

The AmplideX DM1 Dx Kit aims to revolutionize the diagnosis of DM1 by providing a simple, sensitive, and streamlined method to analyze DMPK expansions within a single day without the requirement for Southern blot technology.

The AmplideX PCR/CE C9orf72 Kit* is a research product for the detection of GGGGCC repeats in the C9orf72 gene. These reagents provide a single-tube PCR approach based on a Repeat-Primed PCR (RP-PCR) design to profile repeat sequences in the C9orf72 gene. 

The AmplideX^® SMN1/2 Plus Kit is an in vitro nucleic acid amplification kit intended to aid in the screening of carriers for and diagnosis of spinal muscular atrophy (SMA). The kit is designed for PCR with extracted genomic DNA from human whole blood performed on standard laboratory-validated thermal cyclers, followed by resolution on a general laboratory-validated genetic analyzer or capillary electrophoresis (CE) platform.

COMET™ enables the simultaneous spatial detection of RNA and protein on the same tissue section using RNAscope™ HiPlex Pro and sequential immunofluorescence (seqIF™) with off-the-shelf, non-conjugated primary antibodies. Thanks to the precise and sensitive detection of both targets, COMET™ provides valuable scientific insights into biomarkers that can be spatially resolved at a single-cell level. The streamlined, end-to-end workflow ensures assay reproducibility and saves time in assay development and execution.

Ella performs immunoassays inside a consumable microfluidic Simple Plex assay cartridge. Like a pre‑kitted ELISA, all reagents including matched antibody pairs have been validated. But with Ella, the reagents are pre‑loaded onto a cartridge for ease of use.

Hana and Pala are versatile and gentle benchtop cell sorters and single-cell dispensers.
Hana is equipped with a 488 excitation laser, and Pala is equipped with 2 excitation lasers, this instrument is capable of detecting and sorting cells utilizing popular fluorescent molecules and stains. Combine high single-cell dispensing accuracy in both 96 & 384 well plates and gentle bulk sorting capabilities.

ProteinSimple’s Jess™ is a Simple Western™ instrument, an innovative technology from Bio-Techne, that performs capillary-based immunoassays and fully automated Western blot analysis, taking the complexity out of traditional immunoassays like Western blot and ELISA and filling in their shortcomings.
