Instruments for measuring the oxidation stability of biodiesel and its blends, natural oils/fats and fat-containing foodstuffs or the PVC thermostability. We offer three dedicated stability measurement instruments for stability measurement: the Rancimat for the assessment of the induction time or oxidation stability index (OSI) of fat-containing foodstuffs, cosmetics, and natural fats and oils; the Biodiesel Rancimat for oxidation stability testing of biodiesel; and the PVC Thermomat for thermal stability testing of polyvinyl chloride (PVC) and other chlorine-containing polymers by means of the dehydrochlorination test (DHC).
KF titrators and accessories for volumetric and coulometric water content determination in liquid, solid, or gaseous samples. Get the complete range from compact benchtop solutions to modular automated systems including accessories and software for volumetric and coulometric Karl Fischer titration from one supplier.
Eco Titrator is the economic titrator for all standard potentiometric titration applications. Its intuitive touch display and the direct keys for controlling the stirrer speed enable everyone at your lab to perform a titration.
The use of UV transilluminators for the detection of DNA or RNA in agarose gels, is still very common, although we know quite well that the shorter the wavelength is, the more the DNA will be damaged quickly, which is dangerous especially if the separated DNA should be used in downstream experiments like cloning or sequencing. Just seconds of UV light is enough to reduce the cloning efficiency significantly.
In contrast to UV instruments, the new innovative LED technology uses a much higher wavelength, which means energy-less light. This will lead to the fact that the nucleic acids are not damaged but sometimes sensitivity is lower as compared to UV light. Furthermore, regular BLUE LED technology is working well with green dyes but couldn’t be recommended with red dyes like Ethidium Bromide, because the longer wavelength is favourable for green dyes but not for red components.
