Join
us at the FASTtracka II Workshop
- 2 July 09
Gain hands-on experience
with the FASTtracka II sensor, in combination with the new FASTact
laboratory accessory and FASTpro GUI at a one-day workshop. The
day will include talks on chlorophyll fluorescence and the Fast
Repetition Rate (FRR) method, a practical demonstration of running
automated Rapid Light Curves (RLCs) through the FASTact system and a
question and answer session with CTG scientists and engineers.

Government
funding for foot and mouth detection
An
optical sensor chip that started life as a way of fighting bio-terrorism
could soon be used in a test for foot-and-mouth disease. Chelsea Technologies
Group in collaboration with
Stratophase, University of Cambridge, Bristol Industrial & Research
Associates are involved in a £1m project to develop a test to identify
foot-and-mouth disease on the spot.

Intelligent
Data Systems Buys Nine TriLux Fluorimeters
Intelligent
Data Systems (IDS) has bought nine Trilux fluorimeters for a number of
Irish based projects delivering real-time water quality data to the web.
John Wallace of IDS said “the Trilux multi-wavelength fluorimeters
provided good solid results in our recent evaluation trials and offer
real value and versatility. These exciting new fluorimeters will be used
in projects in the River Lee, Shannon and Cork Harbour”.

New
Fast Repetition Rate Fluorimeter for use in the Laboratory
In
combination, FASTpro, FASTact and
the FASTtracka II provide an amazingly versatile Fast
Repetition Rate Fluorometer system, which can be used in the laboratory,
on the deck of a ship or underwater, taking measurements from discrete
samples, dark chamber or open water.

Nu-Shuttle
- New Tool for Marine Geology
The
Chelsea Technologies Group has recently delivered a Nu-Shuttle system
specifically configured for marine geology applications. Working with
Sequoia Scientific (Bellvue, WA) a redesigned compact version of the
LISST 100x instrument has been installed in the Nu-Shuttle undulating
towed vehicle. This is complimented with a Sontek MiniADP, OBS3+ optical
backscatter sensor and MINIpack
CTD-fluorimeter package.

Chelsea
Delivers Nu-Shuttle System to China
The
Third Institute of Oceanography in Xiamen has purchased a Nu-Shuttle
system to undertake monitoring of temperature, salinity, oxygen, pH and
real time plankton sampling. Similar systems have been supplied to the
First Institute of Oceanography and the Institute of Oceanographic
Sciences in Qingdao.

FASTtracka
Fluorimeters
are Key Tools in Iron Fertilisation Experiment
Both
Chelsea's Mark I and II FASTtracka
fluorimeters are being deployed as part of the world's largest iron enrichment
experiment currently taking place in the Southern Ocean by an
international team of scientists on board the RV Polarstern. |

Chelsea
delivers Seasoar Towed Vehicle to UTM CSIC in Spain
UTM
required a towed vehicle with capability of undulating down to depths of
500 metres.
The SeaSoar was chosen for its proven track record in providing
this performance, as well as providing a flexible payload allowing UTM
to mount a diverse range of instrumentation. |

Globalistion
also helps patients
Gareth
Thomas, Minister of State in the British Department for Business,
Enterprise & Regulatory Reform singles Chelsea Technologies Group's
rapid diagnostic screening system out as a good example of British
innovation. |
