We see from your search that you're looking for information on the term "Reproducible Results",
and we have a large number of manufacturers' news releases and technical articles here on Laboratorytalk which will be of interest.
Let me be your guide.
Start with
the news release Titration in difficult gypsum formulations from
Metrohm UK, which we summarised at the time by saying "The answer to the analytical problems associated with gypsum titration is to replace the manual colorometric method with the modern 809 Titrando potentiometric autotitrator from Metrohm
UK".
The day before,
we featured the news release Automated water analysis in foodstuffs from
Metrohm UK: "The water content of foodstuffs affects the physical characteristics, technological processes, microbiological stability, and shelf life of foods, as well as having legal and economic ramifications".
In January 2008, we covered the news from Eppendorf UK
concerning its Biophotometer Plus
- take a look at Biophotometer Plus is a highly versatile package
which says: "Building on the success of the UV/Vis Biophotometer, the Biophotometer Plus features a new keypad design, three additional wavelengths and the ability to use microlitre cells as well as cuvettes".
Take a look also at the news release from Metrohm UK, Salt analyser guarantees fast, accurate results,
as well as Autism has relationship to extra or missing genes from Agilent Technologies Europe,
and Electrode measures dissolved ammonia in wastewater from Eutech Instruments.
