HPLC Flow Meter Cleaning Tips
Fast, accurate calibration of flow rates used in HPLC flow systems can be compromised if the flow meter is not maintained. Here are some maintenance tips.
Laboratory Refrigerator Selection Criteria
Pharmaceuticals, blood and plasma must be stored within tight temperature ranges to avoid loss of potency or spoilage. Lab refrigerators and lab freezers are built to meet the demanding requirements of pharmaceutical manufacturers and healthcare providers.
Ultrasonic Passivation for Stainless Steel
Stainless steels such as AISI* Types 304, 310 and 316, are favored for strength and corrosion resistance. Applications include food, chemical and pharmaceutical processing, surgical implants, architecture and transportation. Over time starting…
Ultrasonic Cleaner Degas: Why it’s Important
Degassing fresh ultrasonic cleaning solutions in Degas mode allows normal cleaning operations to start within 10 minutes rather than the 30 minutes that may be required by using ultrasonic cleaning action to accomplish degassing.
Selecting Scale Weights for Calibration Testing
Calibrating precision digital scales, analytical balances and moisture analyzers that rely on accurate weight measurement requires periodic tests using a scale weight closely matching the maximum capacity of the instrument being tested.…
How to Specify a Super Cold Freezer
Ultra low temperature freezers are used for long-term storage of pharmaceuticals and biological specimens, and for testing a product’s ability to perform in super-cold environments.
