ANTON PAAR RHEOLABQC: IS IT THICK, THIN, PASTE-LIKE, STABLE?

The RheolabQC is a rotational rheometer which works according to the Searle principle.
How do you describe the structure and flow properties of your food sample? Is it thick, thin, paste-like, stable…? Is it made to the same specifications every batch?
Can a single point viscosity measurement adequately provide this information? In most case the answer is no as most foods, such as sauces and dispersions, have complex flow properties.
The RheolabQC from Anton Paar answers these questions by providing information on
• Flow properties
• Stability of the sample at rest
• Time dependence of shear or stirring
• The influence of temperature
Check out the RheolabQC brochure or download an application note on measuring chocolate with the RheolabQC below.

METROHM: Coulometry to go – determines water content wherever you want!

New Metrohm 899 Coulometer.
The 899 Coulometer is the most compact and flexible Coulometer yet from Metrohm! Besides a footprint the size of just a DIN A4 sheet of paper, it comes with a Power Box for its own independent power supply!
Built-in magnetic stirrer
The 899 Coulometer does not need much space because it has its own magnetic stirrer built in. There is no need for a support rod either. An integrated holder keeps the titration cell safely standing on the upper side of the instrument.
Independent power supply
No socket around to plug in the power cord? No problem with the 899 Coulometer. In this case, users can rely on the instrument’s independent power supply that comes with an optional Power Box containing a set of rechargeable batteries. This means users can perform coulometric determinations of the water content almost anywhere they want!
Automation possible
At the same time, the 899 Coulometer provides the capabilities of a full-grown Metrohm Coulometer. Thus, it can be linked to a manual oven (860 KF Thermoprep) or to an 885 Compact Oven Sample Changer for fully automated thermal sample preparation and subsequent coulometric determination of the water content.
