BOX 322 DANVILLE CALIFORNIA 94526 MFP I TeLepHone (415) 837-9349 JUN 16 1965 June 9, 1965 Dr. Joshua Lederberg Department of Genetics stanford 4edical School Palo Alto, California Dear Dr. Lederberg: f enjoyed the article by you and your associates in the Chemistry Department which appeared in the May, 1965 issue of Analytical Chemistry. It is always interesting to learn of new ways to use operational amp- Lifiers in analytical instrumentation. They certainly are versatile devices! fhe logarithmic transfer circuit you used should be directly applicable to measurement of concentrations in colorimetry. I will try tt with our instruments as soon as time permits. Our friend Dr. Anthony Edwards mentioned that you were interested in instrumentation and that you might like to see the instruction book for our new system. A copy is enclosed. I hope you will find it both interesting and useful. There are some logarithmic circuits, incidentally, on page 36. If you can spare the time, please give us your comments and criticisms after you have perused the book. Thank you. The MP=-System 1000 is just now being introduced to the market. New product notices will appear in the journals later this summer. A pic- torial brochure ts being prepared. The modules are now ready for deliv- ery. If you would like to see and try out the equipment, we would be happy to bring a set over to your laboratory. Any qguesttons you might have concerning this new system will he answered completely and promptly. Very truly yours, Richard G. MeKee RGMc/go
