Description

It’s Purpose:

The Advanced Instruments 2020 Osmometer is a laboratory instrument designed to measure the osmolality of a liquid sample. Osmolality is a measure of the concentration of solutes in a solution and is important in many fields, including clinical medicine, pharmaceuticals, and food science.

The 2020 Osmometer uses the freezing point depression method to measure osmolality. This involves cooling a small sample of the liquid and measuring the temperature at which it freezes. Because the freezing point of a solution is lower than that of pure water, the degree of depression in the freezing point is directly proportional to the osmolality of the solution.

Acme’s Summary:

The instrument has a range of 0 to 2000 mOsm/kg and can measure samples with a volume of 20 to 200 microliters. It has a sample chamber that can accommodate up to six samples at a time, which can be run in batch mode for high throughput. The instrument also has a user-friendly interface with an LCD display and easy-to-use controls.

Overall, the Advanced Instruments 2020 Osmometer is a reliable and accurate instrument for measuring osmolality in a variety of applications.
