Heerbrugg, Switzerland (PRWEB) August 24, 2005 -- Leica Microsystems is continuing the market launch of the Leica M844 F40 with another highlight. Just like its older sister, which made its international debut in April, the Leica M844 F19 impresses the user thanks to the same first-class optics (M844). The new F19 stand is equipped with high-precision mechanical brakes, which ensure homogeneous movements and stable positioning of the complete microscope system.

Optical strength is our strength

The Leica M844 F19 also contains the high-quality optical components of the M844 F40: the original APO OptiChrome? optics provide maximum resolution, enormous plasticity, outstanding depth of field, high contrast and natural colour fidelity. QuadZoom?, the zoom system with four parallel beam paths, provides the surgeon with undivided light ? independent of the assistant and video system. The new ?Depth Enhancer? creates impressive depth of field. The degree of depth of field can be adjusted easily using either the footswitch or the control unit.

Slim design andamp; homogenous movement control

The small stable foot with easy-running, lockable casters ensures convenient positioning in the operating room thanks to an ergonomic handle. The new F19 stand with three mechanical brakes can be easily and precisely moved in all application areas, thus permitting a stable work position.

Convenience andamp; user-friendliness

The many new functions and settings of the Leica M844 F40 are also available to the user in the new Leica M844 F19. The accustomed convenience for the user is provided by features such as the new ?Two-in-One display control unit?, the clever ?StepCycle?? function, the wide range of ?ErgonOptics?? modules, the exclusive ?UltraLow? II? tube, the practical ?side-to-side quick change for the assistant?, the ?Intelligent Set-Up System? (ISUS?) and the always ready-to-start ?Auto-Reset? function.

The new Leica M844 F19 is uncompromising in terms of optical quality, user-friendliness and accessories. It combines the unique features of the Leica M844 microscope with the stability of a stand operated by mechanical brakes, thus making it an attractive alternative for smaller budgets. http://www.justtravelswitzerland.com/articles/Switzerland-News_6243.html Wed, 15 Mar 2006 07:32:37 CST Zurich, Switzerland (PRWEB) August 30, 2005 -- Med Services Europe, a "Virtual European Headquarters" for pharmaceutical and medical manufacturers has relocated from The Netherlands to Switzerland.

Dr. Gene Emmer, President of Med Services Europe, said "Switzerland offers a much better business environment for a European Headquarters". According to Dr. Emmer the advantages are numerous. Dr Emmer stated that support by the local authorities was extensive. We were carefully guided through many of the steps we required by very competent agents of the office for Economic Development of the Canton of Zurich, saving us a great deal of time and lawyers, expenses.

He also noted that the Swiss bureaucracy is rapid and streamlined. We were issued our provisional residency permits before we arrived in Switzerland and had our final permits within a month after relocation.

The location of Switzerland in Europe weighed-in heavily as a decision making factor. Switzerland is the most central location in Europe, only five hours by train or approximately an hour by plane from the major business centers of Europe.

Public transportation is also very attractive. In many countries, due to traffic congestion combined with unreliable transportation systems; you can never be sure when you will arrive at your destination. In Switzerland you can make an appointment at the other side of the city or the other side of the country and you will be sure to arrive on time.

Language ability is also an advantage in Switzerland. It is not unusual to find employees who are fluent in all of the important European languages including English, German, French and Italian, an issue that Dr. Emmer considers significant to the future of the organization.

Dr Emmer evaluated several options before selecting Switzerland. While every area had its advantages and disadvantages, the balance leaned heavily in favor of Switzerland. Dr Emmer is very pleased about the choice. The Swiss are all about efficiency. Everything works well in this country. Switzerland seems to me to be the ideal location for Med Services Europe.
