Vernier Science Education Becomes Sole Distributor of Select MicroLAB High School- and College-Level Chemistry Accessories

Published

on

BEAVERTON, Ore., Sept. 30, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Connected by a shared commitment to hands-on science education and customer service, Vernier Science Education is partnering with MicroLAB to support its customers as MicroLAB leaders head into retirement. As part of this transition, Vernier is adding three MicroLAB accessories to its lineup of chemistry products that enhance the lab experience for high school- and college-level educators and students. These products, which can be used alongside Vernier Go Direct® sensors, include the Precision Volume Dispenser, Electrochemistry Half-Cell Plate, and Electrochemistry Metals Kit.

“I look forward to passing the torch to my valued colleagues at Vernier Science Education as I head into retirement,” said Dr. John Amend, president of MicroLAB. “Vernier Science Education shares our educational philosophy and is well-known for their leading customer service. I have the utmost confidence in their team continuing to support educators with these products.”

“Dr. Amend has been a leader and champion in the college chemistry education space and is well-respected for his innovation and educator-centric business practices,” added Jill Hedrick, CEO of Vernier Science Education. “We are honored that he has chosen Vernier Science Education to continue to make these excellent products available to the many educators who use them.”

The Precision Volume Dispenser provides students and educators with a highly precise, rugged, and easy-to-use alternative to a burette. It can be used with the Go Direct Drop Counter, Go Direct pH sensor, Go Direct Conductivity Probe, and Go Direct Oxidation-Reduction Potential (ORP) Sensor to conduct a number of acid-base, conductometric, or potentiometric titrations.

The Electrochemistry Half-Cell Plate offers a convenient, reusable system for conducting stable electrochemistry half-cell experiments with metals and the Go Direct Voltage Probe. Its inclusive, premeasured design, which uses about one-tenth the volume of ion solutions as traditional experiments, enhances the precision and consistency of measurements while simplifying setup and cleanup for students and educators. Its unique salt bridge produces stable measurements (± 1 mV) over 30 minutes. By significantly reducing the need for single-use materials, the Electrochemistry Half-Cell Plate helps create a more efficient, cost-effective, and environmentally-friendly lab experience without compromising accuracy or educational value.

The Electrochemistry Metals Kit provides a convenient, hands-on way to study the basic principles of electrochemistry. With 5 cm lengths of pre-cut copper, nickel, iron, lead, zinc, aluminum, and silver wire, students and educators can easily explore oxidation, reduction, the electrochemical series, and Nernst variables affecting electrochemical reactions. The kit’s reusable design supports sustainable lab practices while ensuring consistent, accurate results when paired with the Go Direct Voltage Probe or the Go Direct Constant Current System.

“When used with the Go Direct Voltage Probe, the Electrochemistry Half-Cell Plate and Electrochemistry Metals Kit provide a more precise, sustainable, and user-friendly way to explore electrochemical reactions,” said Melissa Hill, PhD, director of chemistry at Vernier Science Education. “By streamlining the experiment setup and improving measurement accuracy, educators can provide students with hands-on, impactful learning experiences that are both efficient and environmentally conscious.”

The journey begins with an immersive consultation tailored to your unique needs. Clients may submit requests via LaVivid’s Custom Order Portal or connect directly with our hair experts. This dialogue ensures every detail aligns with your lifestyle, preferences, and aspirations.

Base Selection

Breathable lace? Undetectable thin skin? A hybrid for versatility? Our specialists guide you through material options, balancing comfort, durability, and realism.

From jet-black waves to salt-and-pepper curls, we offer:

• 100% Remy Human Hair: Ethically sourced, handpicked for texture and luster.

Step 2: Artisan Craftsmanship – Precision in Every Strand

Custom-Fit Systems: The Signature Mold Process

For thin skin or full-cap systems requiring anatomical accuracy, LaVivid employs its proprietary mold technology:

1. Scalp Impression Kit: Easy-to-use templates ensure precise measurements.

2. Hand-Sculpted Perfection: Artisans create plaster molds for millimeter-perfect fit.

3. Secure Archiving: Molds are stored indefinitely, expediting future orders.

Behind the Scenes: Meticulous Handcrafting

• Base Construction: Medical-grade, hypoallergenic materials are double-layered for durability and comfort.

• Knot-by-Knot Artistry: Each strand is hand-tied to replicate natural follicular distribution—a process requiring weeks but guaranteeing undetectable realism.

SEBERANG PERAI, Malaysia, May 17, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Trensor Electronics Sdn Bhd, the Malaysian subsidiary of Trensor Co Ltd—a leading manufacturer of automotive pressure sensors—held a groundbreaking ceremony to mark the commencement of construction on its new manufacturing plant at the Penang Technology Park @Bertam in Penang, Malaysia.

The new plant—a four-storey facility with an approximate floor area of 10,000 square meters and an estimated investment of RM100 million—is expected to begin mass production of automotive pressure sensors before Q2 2026. At full capacity, it will employ over 200 workers and generate more than RM200 million in annual sales. Trensor has also reserved space on its current land lots to accommodate future expansions.

The ceremony was attended by YAB Chow Kon Yeow, the Chief Minister of Penang, YB H’ng Mooi Lye, the Penang State Executive Councillor (EXCO) for Local Government and Town&Country Planning, as well as representatives from various local organizations, including the Malaysian Investment Development Authority (MIDA), Northern Corridor Implementation Authority (NCIA) and InvestPenang.

In his speech, YAB Chow Kon Yeow welcomed Trensor’s entry into Penang’s vibrant industrial ecosystem and emphasized its role in strengthening the state’s electrical and electronics value chain, particularly in automotive electronics.

Zhou Wenbo, General Manager of Trensor Electronics Sdn Bhd, stated: “The decision by Trensor Co Ltd to establish its first-ever overseas factory in Penang, Malaysia, was driven by the state’s world-class infrastructure, business-friendly governance, high quality of life, cultural affinity, and abundant pool of high-tech talent attracted to the ‘Silicon Valley of the East’.”

“MIDA, InvestPenang, the Seberang Perai City Council, and all local authorities have provided strong support in helping Trensor turn its globalization strategy into a concrete reality today,” Zhou added.

Trensor Co Ltd specializes in the development and manufacture of automotive pressure sensors, ranking highly in annual output, automation, and vertical integration. Its world-class products are included in the procurement systems of major global automakers such as Ford and Geely, as well as Tier 1 suppliers like Cummins and Hanon Systems. Approximately 60% of the company’s revenue is derived from exports, primarily to North America and Europe. Its pressure sensors are also used in the air conditioning systems of Perodua vehicles.

The Penang facility will support Trensor’s strategic expansion into Southeast Asia’s growing automotive markets and beyond.

Sirius Signal Supplies World’s Largest Boating Club With Modern Electronic Visual Distress Signal Devices

Freedom Boat Club — subsidiary of Brunswick Corporation — equips corporate club boats with state-of-the-art SOS flashing distress lights

PEND OREILLE, Idaho, May 17, 2025 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ — Sirius Signal, the world’s leader in marine safety distress signal innovation and manufacturing, announced today it is providing its high-performance single visible white color plus non-visible infrared SOS flashing distress light to Freedom Boat Club’s fleet. The Model C-1004 electronic boat flare and daytime distress flag is U.S. Coast Guard approved to meet all visual distress signal requirements. Together both provide greater safety for boaters — it also replaces dangerous and toxic pyrotechnic marine flares.

“We have recognized that our club members should have safe, effective and easy to deploy distress signals should any emergency arise on the water,” said Nic Thomas, senior director of club operations.

“We have recognized that our club members should have safe, effective and easy to deploy distress signals should any emergency arise on the water,” said Nic Thomas, senior director of club operations.

In combination with the distress light, a suction cup mount is provided for club members to display it safely above their line of sight. A video linked by a dynamic QR code gives Freedom Club boaters education and instructions on proper use.

“Our SOS visual distress signal products paired with ‘how to and when to use’ instructions provide invaluable operational safety for Freedom Boat Club members,” said Anthony Covelli, Sirius Signal CEO. “This is foundationally what Freedom Boat Club emphasizes in its Unlimited Boat Training Program.”

Continued adoption of these modern electronic signal devices makes sense because they are superior to pyrotechnic marine flares. In addition, they require purchase just one time and eliminate the need for disposal of toxic waste.
