Advanced® 2020-BIO Multi-Sample Osmometer
Advanced® Model 2020-BIO Automation Friendly Osmometer for Osmolality Measurement
The Advanced Instruments Model 2020-BIO multi-sample osmometer is specifically designed to seamlessly integrate with laboratory automation and robotics-platform solutions. The 2020-BIO Micro-Osmometer determines the osmolality of solutions using freezing point depression (FPD).
The 2020-BIO incorporates:
• Automation friendly
• 20 µL sample size, ideal for applications where the sample quantity is limited
• 90-second test time
• Bidirectional data transfer and system control using the industry standard OPC protocol.
• Designed for automatic AND manual sample cup-loading requirements depending on the needs of the robotics platform
• Multiple sample consumable options- Sample tubes and cleaners in a 96-position rack (modified SBS format).
• Automatic calibration
• Flexible data-export options with internal printer and capability, and results storage and retrieval of 200 samples
• Flexibility to operate as a stand-alone osmometer
• Hot-Line® Technical Service available 24/7
Applications
• Cell Culture process development and optimization
• Biopharmaceutical manufacturing and process control
• Pharmaceutical research and drug development
Advanced Instruments also supplies ControLine™ Products
• ClinitrolTM 290 mOsmol Reference Solution
• Protinol® Protein-based Controls
• RenolTM Urine Osmolality Contols
• Linearity Osmolality Controls
Method – Freezing Point Depression Osmometry
Osmometry measures the total molar concentration of dissolved solids in any solution. The freezing point of a solution is depressed in direct relation to the amount of solute in solution.
