Accessory for Brookhaven's ZetaPlus or ZetaPals zeta potential analyzers is an excellent choice for automatically determining the isoelectric point of colloids, proteins, and other materials
Brookhaven Instruments introduces a new autotitrator, the BI-ZTU.
The BI-ZTU is Brookhaven Instruments' new, easy-to-use autotitrator which provides research and industrial laboratories with a tool to study the effect of pH or additive concentration on zeta potential (surface charge at the shear plane).
This accessory for Brookhaven Instruments' ZetaPlus or ZetaPals zeta potential analyzers is an excellent choice for automatically determining the isoelectric point of colloids, proteins, and other materials.
Measurements that formerly required a technician's full attention for two hours can now be started before lunch and the results can be collected afterwards.
The autotitrator has four metering pumps for dispensing acids and bases.
It also features a flow path designed to minimize plugging by colloidal particles, chemical resistant construction, and a fail-safe design.
Finally, the unit uses USB communications and an on-board microprocessor unit to allow future improvements to the instrument performance.
"This new autotitrator is useful for a wide variety of applications".
"The software was designed for rapid set up so that any chemist with experience performing manual titrations will readily be able to use the BI-ZTU.
It integrates perfectly with our zeta potential instruments and is a good complement for them." explained Jeffrey Bodycomb, product manager at Brookhaven Instruments.
"Feedback from our initial customers is excellent." The BI-ZTU autotitrator represents Brookhaven's latest innovation in its long-standing history of providing customers with tools at the forefront of technology for particle size, zeta potential, and molecular weight measurement.
