Biotechnology Applications and Field Analysis
Monitoring of soil or water is not the only use for devices such as the Mini Gas Chromatograph (GC) and LabNavigator. In the field or laboratory, these tools enable biotechnology researchers and staff to directly measure and track important parameters.
Key applications include the following:
- observing the cultural media's quality.
- conducting measurements of conductivity, turbidity, pH, and other physico-chemical parameters.
- Quick biological solution examination to find alterations or potential contamination.
Decisions may be made instantly thanks to real-time measurements, which is crucial for biotechnological initiatives that need reliable and ideal experimental settings.
Multi-Sensor Integration and Flexibility
The LabNavigator supports up to six simultaneous sensor inputs, giving users the ability to:
- Monitor several chemical and biological factors simultaneously.
- With an acquisition rate of 100,000 samples per second, swiftly gather huge datasets.
- To keep track of experiments over time, export and examine data on a computer.
This adaptability enables the use of a broad range of biological fluids, culture medium, and biomaterials while preserving precise and trustworthy measurements.
