Refractometric Analysis of Urine

Refractometric Analysis of Urine

19 Feb 2016

Dehydration is extremely bad for health and can even lead to death, analysis of a person’s urine can determine whether they are hydrated enough. The Anton Paar refractometer can determine the urine specific gravity, total solids and osmotic pressure of a urine sample – these are all key measurements for determining if the patient is dehydrated.

Abbemat Heavy Duty Line

Anton Paar

The refractometers of the Heavy Duty line are designed formeasuring the refractive index under harsh environments and in special applications. To withstand rough conditions they have a hermetically sealed stainless steel or aluminium casing. The refractometers of the Heavy Duty Line are either operated by a separate control unit or by a PC from a remote position. Abbemat Heavy Duty refractometers can be placed on their side to prevent sedimenation and disturbances which would affect the results. All Abbemat Heavy Duty refractometers are fully compliant with 21 CFR Part 11, featuring user levels, an audit trail and forgery-proof data export. Anton Paar also provides a qualification documentation package (DQ/IQ/OQ/PQ).   Models: Abbemat 450, Abbemat 650 - The Abbemat 450/650 refractometers are extremely robust and waterproof (IP68). To measure samples containing solid particles or air bubbles you can position the Heavy Duty Abbemat on its side to prevent sedimentation and disturbances from affecting the results. A separate control unit allows for convenient operation from a remote position. Abbemat MW - Abbemat MW is the multi-wavelength refractometer for refractive dispersion and Abbe number determinations. The Abbemat MW refractometer is operated by a Windows-based PC software. Abbemat HT - Abbemat High Temperature (HT) offers temperature control up to 110 °C. The Abbemat HT refractometer is operated by a Windows-based PC software.   Features: Unique performance – reliable results within seconds Optimal stability and analytical performance Fast temperature control Optimal sample temperature measurement Easy cleaning; no sample carry-over due to smooth junction between prism and sample mould No moving parts – no drift Withstanding rough operating conditions – at no extra cost Well suited for lab environments with rough operating conditions Robust stainless steel or anodized aluminum housing Resistant against acids, bases and solvents Water proof No internal condensation in cold or humid environments Versatile configurations – for the flexibility you need High temperature model (Abbemat HT) Multi-wavelength models (Abbemat MW) Separate measuring and control unit for remote operation 90° setup for samples containing pulp or particles Optionally combined with Anton Paar density meters, polarimeters and viscometers User-friendly software – making your work easier Large number of predefined methods User-definable methods Warning if the sample volume is too low or the prism needs extra cleaning Plausibility checks of measuring results and adjustments Data export with own design, logo, company address Multi-fill, temperature and time scans 21 CFR part 11 and GMP/GLP compliance – for a regulated environment Audit trail User management with different access levels Electronic signature Pharma qualification package Disabling of data memory
