MODERN LABORATORY AND INDUSTRIAL INSTRUMENTS

The μ-volume sample holder was developed as an alternative to the macro-volume sample holder for projects where sample volume is restricted. Due to the non destructive nature of the technology, the sample can be kept in both sample holders and retested multiple times to follow the mechanical profile over time of the sample in controlled environments. One important difference is that the μ-volume sample holder was designed to fit in a 12-well plate for easy sample incubation, and completely autoclavable (made of stainless steel) to better maintain sample sterility cellularized hydrogels ...

The ElastoSens™ Bio is a compact analytical instrument that measures the viscoelastic properties of soft materials following easy and quick steps guided by the Soft Matter Analytics™ App. Prior to testing, the sample to be measured needs to be inserted into the available sample holders specifically designed for the ElastoSens™ Bio. This step plays a key role in ensuring the quality of the data obtained from the instrument. The μ-volume sample holder was developed for applications in which sample volume is limited, such as for natural polymers, blood and plasma ...

In the realm of bioengineering and biotechnology, cells serve as catalysts for the production of diverse valuable products, such as biofuels, pharmaceuticals, antibodies, industrial enzymes, and bio-based chemicals [1]. Within this context, yeast, a widely utilized microorganism, plays a pivotal role. Monitoring yeast growth is of utmost importance to ensure optimal conditions and productivity in biotechnological processes [2]. Traditionally, spectrophotometric analysis has been used to assess the optical density at 600 nm (OD600nm) by measuring the absorption of light by the yeast ...

The sedimentation kinetics of suspended particles provides crucial information for optimizing manufacturing and infrastructure across industries, while also contributing to the design of drugs and cell therapies. Turbidimetry is a quick and nondestructive method to precisely determine the sedimentation kinetics of suspended particles. The decrease in turbidity of silica particles in distilled water as a function of time was obtained with high precision using the TURBIDI.TTM. This curve gives information about the sedimentation behavior and rate of the suspended particles ...
