The Forensics Specialist for the Sarasota Sheriff’s Office
It’s always great when someone comes up to your booth at an event like Pittcon and says they’ve been using your product successfully for 15 years – it’s even better when that person is Nancy Ludwigsen, Forensics Specialist with the Sarasota Sheriff’s Office.
Nancy was kind enough to talk with us about her work and some of the features she likes about our Thin Layer Chromatography plates.
Fred Rabel, Ph.D. talks about chromatography at Pittcon 2010
Fred Rabel, Ph.D., teaches and consults on chemical projects around the world. While at Pittcon 2010 in Orlando, he was kind enough to talk with us about his experiences and observations in the world of chromatography.
A Behind the Scenes look at our Pittcon Photo Shoot
We enjoy every opportunity to get together with our friends, our customers, our suppliers, well, everybody – which means we love going to Pittcon!
So, we recently invited some friends together for a quick photo
shoot (expect to see some really great photos at Pittcon) – and have our General Manager, Steven Miles, offer a video invitation for people to see us at Booth 1713 (that’s coming soon, too).
Now, I don’t think we’ve ever been seen as a company that takes itself too seriously, so we decided to show you a little “behind the scenes” look at the shoot that day (PLEASE NOTE: No HPLC Columns were damaged in the shooting of this video):
Science and Social Media
Here’s a few great tools to use to connect with others in
the science community.
First, we have BioCrowd – A Social Network for Bioscience Professionals – click here to sign up
Next, for all who will be joining us at Pittcon, there’s PittConnect – this is an excellent way for 
anyone to make connections well in advance of the conference. click here to check out PittConnect.
For anyone who want to connect with others using 
chromatography, be sure to theck out the CHROMmunity by clicking here.
Stay Connected!
Social Networking in the Scientific Community
The latest issue of The Peak from LCGC North America 
features a great Cover Story on Social Networking in the Scientific Community.
Here’s a couple of excerpts:
The BIO organization, who hosts the annual BIO Conference, has a presence on several social media sites, including LinkedIn which has more than 6000 members, Flickr, Facebook, YouTube and Twitter. They also deliver news during the convention using these vehicles and make use of blogs to engage in two way conversations with their members.
Pittcon began building its online community recently with a presence on LinkedIn and Twitter, and among its 300 followers on Twitter include scientists, exhibitors and scientific publishers. Pittcon also is planning on launching its own online scientific community later in 2009.
“A few years ago, we introduced live networking sessions where conferees and exhibitors could brainstorm ideas and discuss solutions to scientific problems in an informal environment,” said Annette Wilson, Pittcon 2010 President. “We think scientists will benefit from engaging in these discussions year round and we will provide the collaborative environment where they can do so easily.”

Mary Canady added: “When I arrived at the BIO meeting, I felt like I already had many friends there because I had developed relationships through my online networks prior to the meeting.”
Analtech e-mail campaign recognized as one of the best
In 2008, SelectScience launched 155 e-mail campaigns to members of the science community.
One of those campaigns was for the release of “The Adventures of Ana L’Tech.”
One of those campaigns was for the release of “The Adventures of Ana L’Tech.”
While at Pittcon, we at Analtech learned that campaign was measured to be the second most successful e-mail campaign of the year by SelectScience.
Jay Leech of SelectScience explained that the words and images in the campaign led more people to “click-through” to view the video than all but one other campaign.
We at Analtech are grateful to all who recieved that SelectScience e-mail and clicked on the link to watch “The Adventures of Ana L’Tech.”
