Q: My Löser Osmometer Type 6 is showing the wrong value on calibration, what can I do?
[caption id="attachment_9720" align="aligncenter" width="199"] Löser Osmometer Type 6[/caption]
The Loser Type 6 and 6M Osmometer models can be calibrated with distilled water, 300 mOsm calibration standard or 900 mOsm calibration standard.
Whatever liquid you use to calibrate, the correct value ...
General function and description:
The sample (serum, blood, urine or any other aqueous solution) is filled in a plastic sample tube and cooled via a Peltier element. These are semiconductor devices, which become cold on one side and warm on the other when electrical current flows through. The cold side cools the sample whilst the heat from the warm side dissipates into the air by con...
Question: How do I clean the probe on a Loser Osmometer?
Answer: The Loser Micro-digital Osmometer is a freezing point depression Osmometer, ideal for use in laboratories.

Question:
We have just been given a Micro-Osmometer Type 13/13DR that is 10 years old but never used. The sensor/thermistor is dry as the liquid has evaporated from the tube covering it. What is the best solution to use for storing the thermistor in and is it still going to work?
An...
 Camlab have two new Osmometers specially designed for very small sample volumes
The Type 15M
Micro-Digital Osmometer Type 15M, determines the osmolality of solutions using freezing point depression. Ideal for small volume applications such as serum, urine or other bodily fluids in clinical applications; and media or formulations in pharmaceutical, biotech or industrial applications. Manu...
According to milk quality rules the freezing point of milk should not be above – 0.515°C, otherwise it has been diluted and it is not allowed. This freezing point is equal to a total Osmolality of 277 mosm from an aqueous solution. A freezing point Osmometer is well suited for determination because determination of total Osmolality will be done by a comparison of freezing point of an unknown s...

Following extensive customer feedback the software on the Osmometer MOD200PLUS and Cryometer type 20 is being updated.
When the instrument is switched off using the mains switch the user will be asked if he wants to clean the needle
hole or switch off. The User has to pres...
Thanks for sharing such a great information.. It really helpful to me.. I always search to read the quality content and finally i found this in you post. keep it up!
I came across your article about "DPD Tablets" on Camlab Info, and it's a valuable resource for anyone seeking information about water testing and analysis using DPD tablets. Your explanation of their usage and significance in water quality monitoring is quite informative.
This article on nanocolor tube tests is a gem for analytical enthusiasts. The idea of zero calibration is intriguing, and your detailed explanation makes it accessible. The step-by-step process helps demystify the technique for beginners like me. The use cases you've highlighted, particularly in...
Grant have introduced the new Controlled Rate Freeze Thaw (CRFT), which is a liquid nitrogen and cryogen free controlled rate freeze and thaw system for cryopreservation in a wide range of applications. Cryopreservation is a process where biological materials such as cells, tissues...
A dipslide is a means of testing the microbial content of liquids. This is a common method of monitoring and measuring microbial activity within many systems and commonly cooling systems. Usually the use of a dipslide is the first line of defence for the testing of microbial issues that could be...
Purchasing items using donated funds without the burden of VAT will now save many Millions of pounds each year which can be put to better use in advancing scientific knowledge to provide new treatments and cures that will shape the medicines of the future.
Working with pressure/vacuum conditions in the lab is common but not all products are designed to withstand this. Products with appropriate geometry and wall thickness are suitable for working safely with pressure. For example, filtering flasks, desiccators, or flat flange vessels, as well as...
