The Pittcon Editors� Gold Award was presented to Bruker for its AXS SMART X2S Crystal-to-Structure� small molecule X-ray system which
allows chemists without crystallography training to obtain routine small molecule 3D structures under full automation.
The Bronze Award was also presented for Bruker AXS� novel benchtop S2 PICOFOX� TXRF (total reflection XRF) system for easy-to-use and robust ultra-trace elemental analysis with straight-forward and costeffective
sample preparation.
This transportable system is expected to complement or replace AA and ICP in many pharma, geological, mining, environmental and food testing applications.
