New Products

Bayer CropScience

www.bayercropscience.us
Environmental Science, a division of Bayer CropScience LP, recently introduced Maxforce Impact Roach Gel Bait. The product features an innovative white bait matrix and a novel active ingredient— clothianidin—specially designed to combat aversion. It has been granted EPA’s reduced-risk status for cockroach control. Maxforce Impact is free of the big-8 allergens, making it well suited for sensitive accounts like food and pharmaceutical plants. Its white color reduces the risk of staining and provides visibility in monitoring for bait consumption. Lab tests have shown it to provide stability and reliability under a wide range of environmental conditions. The bait does not require a signal word by the technician or personal protective equipment for application.

Detectapro

Detectapro has introduced five new body colors to its Metal Detectable and X-ray Detectable Retractable Pen Line. The new body colors: orange, black, purple, white, and yellow complement Detectapro’s current line of retractable pens available in blue, red, and green. The retractable pens, in eight colors, help to control allergens from one production area to another. Color coding pens is another way Detectapro helps in the quest for total food safety, the company said. For more information, visit www.detectapro.com or call 866-441-5572.

Kness

Marathon Data Systems

www.marathondata.com
Marathon Data Systems, provider of a cloud-based business management platform for companies with a mobile workforce, has introduced PestPac LogIt, designed to replace manual logs used in food processing sanitation audits. The iPad application serves as a digital logbook for pest control companies servicing these plants, to create a seamless, digital auditing process. Auditors can find all up-to-date documentation, or generate trend reports from anywhere on site by touching the screen. PestPac LogIt’s interface enables users to access technician certifications, safety data sheets (SDS), pest activity trend logs, and other key documents. The data syncs with PestPac LogIt’s application to produce trending reports and charts. All the data, documents, and reports sync back to PestPac and are stored on an iPad, creating a digital logbook. For more information, visit www.pestpac.com/logit.

Multix

www.multixdetection.com.
Multix has introduced Multix ME100, a multi-energy spectrometer that can discriminate between the unique X-ray absorption signatures of similar materials, based not only on density but also on atomic composition linked to spectra analysis. The ME100 uses a combination of a semiconductor crystal (CdTe/CZT); ASICs and high-speed, front-end electronics, capable of measuring the energy of each incident X-Ray photon. It has a modular architecture built from separate detector modules that can be daisy chained to other modules to form a linear detector array compatible with conveyer size. The data is transferred to the host system, and a Multix API residing on the host computer controls the data flow and format. The ME100 counts the photons in real time, measures the energy of each, and reconstructs the spectra over a maximum of 128 energy bins between 20 and 160keV. The number of energy bins is flexible and can be configured to match the host systems data transfer and processing capacity.
