This cleverly designed, self-contained sensor produces excellent results and will appeal to the Biologist and Chemist. Any reaction that causes a change in opacity, or gives a colour change can be used to study rates of reaction.
It is supplied with four 35mm slides (red, yellow, blue and green) that produce light of a specific and consistent wavelength, and a pack of cuvettes with lids.
The sensor’s thick, black casing ensures that colorimetric results are not affected by ambient light.
Applications include:
- Enzyme concentration versus rates of protein, starch and fat breakdown
- Enzyme inhibition
- Lambert Beers law
- Acidic breakdown of sodium thiosulphate
- Quantitative analysis of sugar
