- Abbe Refractometers
By: Kathy Brasch | - Refractometers are measuring instruments which put the phenomenon of light refraction (bending) to practical use. They are based on the principle that as the density of a substance increases (such as when sugar is dissolved in water), its refractive index rises proportionately. Refractometers were devised by Dr. Ernst Abbe, a German/Austrian scientist in the early 20th century.
The prism in a refractometer has a greater refractive index than the sample solution. Measurements are read ... Tags: microscopes, stereo microscope, microscope camera, refractometer, brix refractometer, vanguard, clinical microscopes, light microscope, microscope
- Principals Of Refractometers
By: Kathy Brasch | - Water is placed in a reservoir. When a pencil is dipped into the water, the tip appears bent. Now put concentrated sugar water into a cup and try the same thing. The tip of the pencil should appear even more bent. This is the phenomenon of light refraction. Refractometers are measuring instruments in which this phenomenon of light refraction is put to practical use. They are based on the principal that as the density of a substance (e.g. when sugar is dissolved in water), it's refractive index r ... Tags: refractometers, abbe refractometers, brix refractometers
