Bruker has been driven by the idea to always provide the best technological solution for each analytical task for more than 60 years

We are a developer, manufacturer and distributor of high-performance scientific instruments and analytical and diagnostic solutions. Many of our products are used to detect, measure and visualize structural characteristics of chemical, biological and industrial material samples.

Our products and solutions address the rapidly evolving needs of a diverse array of customers in life science research, pharmaceuticals, biotechnology, applied markets, cell biology, clinical research, microbiology, in-vitro diagnostics, nanotechnology and materials science research.

Within the life science division our product portfolio includes magnetic resonance technology (MRMS), mass spectrometry technologies, gas and liquid chromatography, triple quadrupole mass spectrometry technologies. We have world leading technologies in Proteomics where our latest timsTOF Ultra technology is pushing the boundaries of sensitivity for single cell analysis. The timsTOF family now has a combined ESI and MALDI source allowing SpatialOMx workflows, for the latest in tissue imaging the instrument can be fitted with the MALDI-2 greatly enhancing ionisation capabilities. These technologies are complimented by our ProteoScape software, which allows real-time search and on the fly decision making.

John Morris Group was founded in 1952 and are now recognised as one of Australia’s and New Zealand’s leading distributors of a range of specialised scientific equipment sourced from the world’s leading manufacturers.

Protea Glycosciences is a lean glycoscience company founded with the aim of accelerating glycoscience research. We serve this mission through the provision of analytical services as well as manufacturing of standards.

Our state-of-the-art LC-MS-based analytical services enable native glycan and polysaccharide structure analyses that were previously unachievable. These services are augmented by in-house quality control standards which are commercially available for labs worldwide. Together, these equip us to help you answer some of the toughest questions in glycobiology.

Since its inception in 1875, Shimadzu’s philosophy has been to apply its thinking ‘for the well-being of humankind and the Earth’. That means real world solutions that benefit scientist, doctors and ultimately, everybody.

Our products and solutions serve the research community and analysts in diverse fields such as chemistry, molecular biology, medical science, environmental analysis and industry.

It has resulted in our leadership in spectroscopy, chromatography, mass spectrometry, environmental analysers, medical systems, aircraft equipment, semiconductors and flat panel display equipment.

It’s that thinking that brought Shimadzu direct to Australia and New Zealand since 1991 with offices and service centres in all major cities.
