Proper Pipetting: 5 Tips to Improve Your Pipetting Kumar Jeetendra | January 5, 2023 Hardly any activity is as common in laboratories as pipetting. Whether PCR, ELISA or dilution series – liquids need to be moved at virtually any time in most labs. Pipetting is therefore often considered a supposedly simple routine activity and receives little attention. Yet to use the right tools and follow proper technique is crucial …
FormWeigh.Net®: Powerful Solution for Pharmaceutical Dispensing Kumar Jeetendra | January 5, 2023 Inaccurate measurements, addition of wrong materials, false labeling or lost documentation are some of the reasons for inefficiencies. Experience has shown that manual inputs are more error-prone than automatic methods. Solution FormWeigh.NET® offers full formulation control with visual displays that guide operators easily through the recipe-weighing process. It captures weight values automatically, storing them in …
Choosing the perfect photochemical reactors for your Photochemistry Analysis Kumar Jeetendra | January 5, 2023 The thing that sits right at the top of our list is repeatability. There are still scientists out there using homemade photoreactor kit in their labs (which is scary and potentially hazardous) with a lamp and some clamps to carry out their reactions. Detailing this set up precisely in your documentation can be tricky and …
Precision and accuracy of pipetting are influenced by a number of factors Kumar Jeetendra | January 4, 2023 In chemistry, biology, and medicine, a pipette is a typical laboratory instrument used to convey a predetermined volume of liquid, frequently as a media dispenser. The success of your pipetting results will depend on how accurately you read the pipette volume when doing delicate research. Using precise, high-quality instruments is the greatest method to be …
Utilizing an Ultrasonic Cleaner for Glassware Kumar Jeetendra | December 21, 2022 Ultrasonic cleaning is a technique that uses ultrasonic waves (often between 20 and 40 kHz) to agitate a fluid with a cleaning effect. There are several sizes of ultrasonic cleaners, ranging from small desktop devices with an internal volume of less than 0.5 litres (0.13 US gal) to huge industrial systems with internal capacities approaching …
How do you make sure a centrifuge is balanced? Kumar Jeetendra | December 20, 2022 A common piece of lab equipment in chemistry and molecular biology is the centrifuge. The centrifuge has a roughly circular shape and is surrounded by circular holes for sample tubes. By placing balancing tubes opposite one another in the centrifuge rotor and placing sample-filled microtubes there, you may balance the centrifuge. Although balancing your centrifuge …
