HA is a naturally-occurring polymer that is present throughout all mammalian systems, and of 'enormous' commercial interest for ophthalmic, medical, pharmacological and cosmetic applications
It combines high accuracy with contemporary electronics and can be integrated with Wyatt's multi-angle light scattering (Mals) detectors and Astra software to benefit the biotechnology, chemical/petrochemical, pharmaceutical and medical device industries.
The ViscoStar is said to be the only viscometer that can measure intrinsic viscosity across the peaks of monodisperse samples, providing truly accurate readings for the first time.
The instrument incorporates a high efficiency heat exchange to offer extremely stable baselines, and is said to achieve at least twice the signal-to-noise ratio of any commercial viscometer currently on the market.
Additionally, it features a transducer protection system which protects sensitive transducer membranes from accidental damage.
