A new benchmark for high throughput cost efficient ICP OES. 29 May, 2026 PerkinElmer AES (UK) Limited Building on decades of ICP-OES innovation and market leadership, the Avio(R) 3000 expands PerkinElmer's portfolio, enabling high-speed analysis with outstanding stability and detection limits, low operating costs, and simplified workflows that deliver accurate, defensible data. PerkinElmer recently announced the launch of the Avio(R) 3000 inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectrometer, their top-tier true simultaneous ICP-OES. Engineered to support laboratories operating under constant throughput and cost pressures, the Avio 3000 delivers rapid ICP-OES analysis alongside data consistency required for regulatory-driven environments. Optimised for efficiency and reliability, the system reduces consumables, energy use, and operational complexity to deliver measurable cost savings. The combination of high performance and low operating costs in the Avio 3000 ICP-OES is made possible by the seamless integration of third-generation proprietary technologies with field-proven ones, allowing laboratories to achieve high analytical performance while maintaining efficient, cost-effective operation. Third-generation proprietary technologies include: a patented detector designed exclusively for ICP-OES, delivering improved signal-to-background ratio, precision, and speed; a cutting-edge optical system that enhances data quality while simplifying operation; patented HeliPlate(TM) plasma technology that consumes up to 50% less argon than traditional helical coil systems while improving plasma robustness; chiller-free operation further contributes to savings in electricity, heat, noise, and maintenance, reduces the carbon footprint, and occupies less laboratory space. The Avio 3000 builds on a strong tradition of reliable, low-maintenance instrumentation, providing a high-performance true simultaneous ICP-OES system with reduced on-going operating costs.

PerkinElmer partners with eXXpedition to advance ocean science and a more sustainable future. SHELTON, CT, UNITED STATES, May 25, 2026 / EINPresswire.com / - PerkinElmer, a global leader in analytical solutions that support human and environmental health, today announced a partnership with eXXpedition, the all-women global sailing research organization dedicated to investigating the causes and impacts of plastic pollution in the marine environment. The partnership reflects a shared commitment to advancing ocean science and accelerating progress toward a more sustainable future. eXXpedition's latest mission will deliver the first global study mapping ocean plastic pollution back to its sources on land. With the second leg of the voyage underway, PerkinElmer is supporting the mission by equipping eXXpedition with advanced FTIR spectroscopy technology, polymer spectral libraries, and sampling accessories to analyze microplastics collected at sea and on land. FTIR technology enables scientists to quickly and accurately identify different types of plastic in ocean samples, helping generate reliable data that deepens understanding of plastic and microplastic pollution and informs solutions to protect ocean and human health. The collaboration reinforces PerkinElmer's commitment to advancing a more sustainable future through science, innovation, and meaningful partnerships. Founded by ocean advocate and skipper Emily Penn, eXXpedition combines offshore sailing expeditions with rigorous scientific sampling, policy engagement, and public education. Crew members collect water samples across some of the world's most remote ocean regions to study microplastics, persistent organic pollutants, and the chemical signatures associated with plastic waste. On land, the team completes the picture by conducting investigations into litter, consumer goods packaging, and waste management infrastructure. "Plastic pollution is a global challenge that crosses borders and ecosystems, with consequences for ocean health, food systems, and human well-being," said Michael Stubblefield, CEO of PerkinElmer. "On World Environment Day, this partnership highlights the importance of credible science and cross-sector collaboration to better understand how plastics move through the environment and to help protect both the planet and human health." Science at the Heart of Sustainability PerkinElmer contributes to sustainability through a broad portfolio of products and services that support environmental monitoring, materials characterization, and clean-energy research. These technologies play a critical role in helping scientists, regulators, and industry better understand environmental risks and accelerate the transition to more sustainable systems. As part of this partnership, PerkinElmer contributes its state-of-the-art Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, a powerful analytical technique widely used to identify and characterize plastics and polymers. FTIR enables researchers to: - Identify the chemical composition of microplastics collected from seawater - Distinguish between polymer types and potential sources of pollution - Support robust, comparable datasets that can inform environmental policy and innovation FTIR analysis is a cornerstone of many microplastics research workflows, helping transform ocean samples into data that can drive meaningful action.

Perten, a PerkinElmer company, has launched the LactoScope 500, a Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy dairy analyser designed for medium and large processors. The system addresses measurement instability challenges in traditional FT-IR systems, particularly for high-fat or viscous products. The LactoScope 500 features a fully integrated dual-stage high-pressure homogeniser that standardises samples within the instrument, reducing variability and improving accuracy for products like cream, yogurt and ice cream mixes. It provides rapid analysis of fat, lactose, protein and total solids, enabling processors to operate with tighter specifications and reduce product giveaway. The system combines mid-infrared optics, stable calibration models and integrated remote diagnostics for consistent long-term performance. Its compact design includes an intuitive touchscreen and lower consumables usage to support sustainability initiatives.
