Do you know how an analytical balance works?
It should be taken into account that weight is the force that the gravitational field exerts on the mass of a body, such force being the product of the mass by the local acceleration of gravity. [F = m x g]. The local term is included to emphasize that the acceleration depends on factors such as geographical latitude, height above sea level and land density, at the place where the measurement is made. This force is measured in Newton. Did you know? The balance has other names, including scales and scales.
Common Mistakes When Using an Electronic Balance
Electronic balances are highly valued measuring equipment for chemical, analytical and formulation operations in quality industries and laboratories. They are used, like scales in general, to measure the mass of a body or substance, only that as this is a precision balance, the measurement is exact.
What is laminar flow hood?
A laminar flow hood is a device that allows obtaining a sterile and safe area for any need that is required within a laboratory. It can be: horizontal or vertical. Basically it constitutes a space, which, by means of a specific treatment of the air, allows to work in an area with a strict control of non-road particles.
How to act in case of broken tubes inside a centrifuge?
The centrifuges for laboratory are equipment used to make the sedimentation of the components in a homogeneous solution in their different densities. For this they have a special design that subjects the solutions to the centrifugal rotation and acceleration at a high speed for a certain time, movements with which the solution is separated into two fractions.
The incubators: an ideal atmosphere
The incubator is a device that uses various means of heat transfer and environmental control, to obtain conditions under which specialized laboratory procedures can be performed.
How to correctly install your optical microscope?
The microscope is an instrument that allows observing objects that are not perceptible to the human eye. This is achieved by an optical system composed of lenses, which form and amplify the image of the object being observed.
Considerations to take into account when using a drying oven?
The drying oven is a device that is used to dry and sterilize glass and metal containers in the laboratory. It is also identified with the name Drying oven.
How does a turbidimeter work?
Turbidity is one of the parameters that define the degree to which water loses its transparency quality as a consequence of the suspended solids particles found in it.
Why Is It Recommended To Periodically Calibrate Analytical Balances?
The balances are laboratory equipment that need periodic maintenance to keep them in the best operating conditions. All this in order to guarantee the conservation of its characteristics: Accuracy, Presicion and Sensibility.
How to address thrombocytosis?
Thrombocytosis is defined as a platelet count increased by more than two standard deviations above the average (> 450,000 / mm3) and is observed in 2.3% of the population, preferably in people> 40 years.
