it works on the principle of refraction
What instrument would the technician use to measure both the urine specific Gravity and the protein levels of the blood?
Refractometer
How do you clean the refractometer?
Some labs store the refractometer with a piece of tissue in the prism assembly to keep the prism glass from being scratched.
What is an Abbe refractometer?
An Abbe refractometer is an instrument used to measure the refractive index of a liquid, by utilizing the critical angle for total reflection.
What tools do you use in a laboratory?
Examples are: oven, burette, muffle furnace, spectrophotometer, refractometer, analytical balance, stirrer and hundred others.
What is a refractometer?
Any of several instruments used to measure the index of refraction of a substance. it is commonly known to be used in wine making, where the refractometer is used to measure the sugar content in the fruit juices.
How is a refractometer used in home brewing?
A refractometer measures the refraction of light through a medium. In beer manufacture it tests for the density of sugars in the beer and is able to tell you the sweetness.
When refractometer reading increase?
A hand-held refractometer is a simple to operate, moderately priced instrument that is suitable for field use. In most cases sample preparation is limited to suitable dilution of a wet concentrate or blending of a dry concentrate with water. Although many refractometer are temperature compensated to allow accurate readings over a range of solution temperatures, they are sensitive to large temperature changes to which they may be subjected during field work.
What syrup do you use for slush puppies or can i use normal juice?
To make real slush you need a concentrate which is 12 brix. This is the optimum sugar level to prevent the water from freezing into solid ice. The mixture should be agitated while it freezes. The brix can be measured with a refractometer.
What is type of water used in refractometer?
Deionized, distilled water
What instrument measures coolant mix ratios?
Hydrometer or refractometer.
