Empowering our team with First Aid Skills! 🚑 Yesterday, we focused on a crucial topic: first aid. With the goal of equipping our colleagues to be the first responders in emergencies, eleven team members joined the course. From making bandages for minor and major injuries to handling life-threatening situations, we covered it all. The course was both highly educational and enjoyable, making it a truly valuable experience for everyone involved. A huge thank you to Edith from the DRK for providing such practical and insightful training. We thank our colleagues for their efforts in making our office a safer place and want to thank all the heroes out there who remain calm and save lives every day. #FirstAid #TeamTraining #SafetyFirst #WorkplaceSafety #Lifesavers

The highlight of the Month: Inspiring Visit from Leading Polymer Scientists.👩🔬 We were happy to welcome Prof. Dr. Albena Lederer and Dr. Susanne Boye to Swabian Instruments this month! Their visit sparked exciting conversations and the exchange of groundbreaking ideas. Prof. Lederer, head of the Center for Macromolecular Structure Analysis at the Leibniz-Institut für Polymerforschung Dresden (IPF) in Germany and the SASOL Chair in Analytical Polymer Science at Stellenbosch University (SU) in South Africa, and Dr. Boye, Deputy Head of the same center at IPF, brought invaluable insights about the science of polymer and particle characterization. At Swabian Instruments, we were proud to present the prototype of our latest technology, which redefines Dynamic Light Scattering (DLS) measurements. Our DLScat offers a unique data processing architecture that makes particle size analysis easy and more reliable. It offers up to six simultaneous scattering angle measurements in addition to a digital dust filtering method that ensures accurate correlation functions, even with contaminated or dusty samples. 😺 In the dynamic world of scientific innovation, this visit has opened up new avenues for developing revolutionary solutions in the field of particle and polymer sizing technology. We look forward to the future collaborations and advancements that will arise from this fruitful interaction.
