Luigs & Neumann GmbH 737 Boschstrasse 19 Ratingen, 40880 Germany www.luigs-neumann.com Since 1980 Luigs & Neumann GmbH has established as manufacturer and world-wide sup- plier of Micromanipulators, complete electro- physiological / invivo Workstations and acces- sories. The experience and feedback from sci- entists are the basics of our high engineering standards and manufacturing qualities. As Single Molecule force-spectroscopy is an expanding field of Research we developed in 2011 the Single Molecule Atomic Force Spectrometer - specially designed for force clamp - in collabora- tion with Prof. Julio Fernandez and his Group at

Mad City Labs, Inc. manufactures high per- formance closed loop nanopositioning sys- tems, precision aligned microscopy platforms and single molecule imaging instrumenta- tion. Our products are ideal for super reso- lution microscopy, lens positioning, imag- ing, single molecule biophysics, drift correc- tion, light sheet microscopy, and AFM/SPM. Our nanopositioners feature proprietary PicoQ® sensors with ultra-low noise and high stability performance under closed loop control. They are compatible with most imaging and automation software. Nano-Cyte® is a revolutionary three dimensional stabilization instrument which eliminates the effects of drift from microscopy experiments. Nano-Cyte® performs active 3D stabilization for days and allows single molecule techniques to be applied to the realm of cell biology. The MicroMirror TIRF system is a multi-spec- tral TIRF microscopy platform that replaces the traditional dichroic with broadband mirrors resulting in improved signal-to-noise and acces- sibility to entry & exit pathways of the objective. MicroMirror TIRF is a superior method for multi-spectral colocalization microscopy. Malvern Instruments 343 117 Flanders Road Westborough, MA 01581 www.malvern.com Malvern supports better characterization/control of proteins/macromolecules. Charge, size, mass, molecular weight, polydispersity are measured using: Zetasizer, dynamic/static light scatter- ing for size, molecular weight, protein charge; NanoSight Nanoparticle Tracking Analysis, particle-by-particle characterization; Viscotek SEC, molecular weight/structure; Archimedes resonant mass measurement, particle counting, aggregate mass determination; Viscosizer, particle size, concentration, formulation viscosity.
