Visible and UV Spectrophotometer: Differences
A spectrophotometer is an instrument that measures how much light a substance absorbs. This equipment measures the amount of absorbance after light passes through a solution. Each substance transmits, reflects, and absorbs light slightly differently. In chemistry, spectrophotometry is the quantitative measurement of the transmission properties of a material based on the light wave.
How does a pH meter work?
A pH meter or pH meter is an instrument used to measure the acidity or alkalinity of a solution. The information provided by this equipment expresses the degree of acidity of an acid or a base in terms of the activity of the hydrogen ions.
PCR and COVID techniques
The polymerase chain reaction popularly known as PCR, is a Molecular Biology technique, widely used today, in the clinical and scientific field, because it allows the amplification of DNA fragments, starting from a very small amount of this biomolecule.
Laminar flow hoods: What are the best known brands?
A laminar flow hood is a highly specialized laboratory equipment that provides a sterile and safe area or zone within the laboratory, to carry out any activity that is required. This equipment constitutes a space with a specific air treatment, which provides an area with a strict control of non-road particles.
Laboratory refrigerators and freezers, temperature ranges
A laboratory refrigerator is a piece of equipment that allows to efficiently conserve all kinds of substances that are cooled in it, whether they are liquid, solid or homogeneous substances. Reason why it is considered essential equipment within the laboratory.
What is a laboratory magnetic stirrer?
A magnetic stirrer is laboratory equipment that uses a rotating magnetic field to mix one or more solutes with a solvent in an automated way. It is considered the most widely used type of stirrer, since it is silent, efficient and does not have direct contact with the sample.
What is a laboratory heating blanket?
The heating blanket is a laboratory device that is equipped with a flexible, insulated and comfortable heating device that allows containers or containers to be positioned inside them, without those made of glass running the risk of breaking.
What is a fluorescence microscope?
A fluorescence microscope is a conventional light microscope that is fitted with a complementary lighting fixture, called “fluorescence.” This makes it a very useful tool in the field of scientific research, since it allows reaching high levels of sensitivity and microscopic resolution, allowing a different appreciation of the information that can be obtained from specimens and that generally goes unnoticed, with conventional light.
The Vortexes at Kalstein
A vortex is a device used in laboratories to mix small vials of liquid. It consists of an electric motor with a vertically oriented drive shaft attached to a slightly mounted recessed rubber part.
Qu’est-ce qu’une équipe multiparamètre?
A multiparameter equipment is a device that allows measuring various variables in the water simultaneously, from a single sample, between said variables we can mention: pH, ORP, ion concentration, conductivity, total dissolved solids (TDS), salinity, Resistivity and dissolved oxygen. This equipment is very useful for laboratory processes and suitable environments for analysis, for the monitoring of water quality in rivers, lakes, swimming pools, water treatment plants and effluent treatment.
