Automatic Bench Top Digital Refractometer For Testing Beverages By: Kathy Brasch | - The soft drink industry produces beverages such as fruit juice, energy drinks and carbonated drinks. One of the key factors in producing these beverages is maintaining consistency between batches of their product for quality control and process control. In order to keep this consistency the manufacture needs to test the product to determine the total concentration of water-soluble solids (Brix value). For practical purposes the Brix value is generally interpreted as sugar content because soft ... Tags:salinity solution, pal refractometers, PAL carrying case
Refractometer Applications By: Kathy Brasch | - In the world of refractometers there are many different models and styles. They can measure a wide variety of products from many different industries. Products include, but are not limited to:
Inverted Biological Microscope By: Kathy Brasch | - An inverted biological microscope system is designed upside down as compared to a standard upright microscope. The sample is normally placed on the stage but the objectives lenses are under the stage, and the condenser lens is over the specimen. This design is required for samples that are suspended in some type of liquid and housed in a Petri dish, biological bottle, 96 well plate or other similar container.
In-line Refractometers By: Kathy Brasch | - In-Line refractometers are designed to monitor and control the concentration of dissolved solids or water soluble liquids in your process lines. These instruments can be incorporated in piping of manufacturing plants, liquid mixing devices, and washing apparatuses to continuously measure the concentration of various liquids. In-Line refractometers are suitable for use in the control of mixing, concentration, fermentation, and control of the concentration of water-based or alkali-based detergent ...

Refractometers For Industrial Applications By: John Morris | - A complete range of pocket size digital refractometers are available for various applications including fruit and vegetables, jelly, syrup, drinks, propylene glycol solutions, cutting oils and urine specific gravity.
- The PAL-1 is suitable for food and beverage manufacture as well as fruit and vegetable markets. It has a wide measuring range of 0.0 - 53.0 percent brix and features automatic temperature compensation. The unit is waterproof, and conforms to IP65.
Inverted Microscopes By: Kathy Brasch | -
Most microscopes that you see in a typical laboratory environment are compound microscopes. They are designed with objectives on a rotating nosepiece mounted above the stage, and the light source and condenser below the stage. They are most commonly used for viewing samples that have been fixed to a flat slide.
In certain applications it is necessary to look at live, unfixed samples. A more practical microscope design to use is the inverted microscope. An inverted microscope is ...

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.
Brix Refractometers By: Kathy Brasch | - You often hear the term brix and brix refractometer when testing samples for sugar content. Just what is a refractometer? A refractometer is an instrument that measures the refraction of light through a substance. The refractive index becomes higher in a substance of higher concentration.
Used Microscopes By: Kathy Brasch | - Remember back to your school days when you first saw amoeba swimming around in pond water? You thrilled to seeing the microscopic organisms moving around, bumping into each other. Now you want to share that memory with your children or grandchildren as they grow. But you dont want to spend their college money on a new high-priced microscope, so what can you do? No problem you can now find many microscopes that are either used or demo models at a much more reasonable price. But first ...

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
Imagine tying a piece of thick rope to a hook in a wall, and then shaking the rope vigorously. The rope will be vibrating in all possible directions - up-and-down, side-to-side, and all the directions in-between - giving it a really complex overall motion. Now, suppose you passed the rope through a vertical rectangular hole, like this: []. The rope has a really tight fit in the hole. The only vibrations still happening at the other side of the hole will be v ...
