Is a power supply important for an electrophoresis camera?
A power supply for electrophoresis chambers is a device used to generate the electrical current that allows to feed the separations of DNA/RNA, PAGE electrophoresis and membrane transfer. Note that the voltage determines the extent of the function, for example, 300V is strong enough to make the gels work, while 250V is needed to make transfers. This equipment acts as a transformer, rectifier and regulator in its output, to avoid voltage spikes that damage the system.
Phototherapy Units for Dermatological Diseases
Phototherapy is a therapeutic measure in which light is used, specifically ultraviolet light (UV) because UV radiation has anti-inflammatory action, for the treatment of dermatological inflammatory and neoplastic skin diseases. The use of phototherapy dates from the early twentieth century and from there have…
How does an infant bilirubin phototherapy unit work?
An infant bilirubin phototherapy unit is medical equipment generally made up of 4 blue light tubes and 2 white light tubes, and a cover or shield that protects the newborn in case of tube breakage and ultraviolet light….
Use of Blue Light Phototherapy in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit
Phototherapy with blue light is a medical treatment used to treat jaundice in newborns. This is a condition in which bilirubin, a yellow substance produced naturally in the body, builds up in the blood and results in a yellowish shade of the skin and the whites of the eyes. Phototherapy is used to lower…
How low does bilirubin go in phototherapy?
Neonatal hyperbilirubinemia is a clinical condition characterized by a serum bilirubin concentration greater than 1.5 mg; according to the cause of this increase the treatments are determined; phototherapy is one of the most used measures to treat jaundice in newborns…
What is the importance of the bilirubin phototherapy unit?
Phototherapy is a therapeutic measure that is carried out through phototherapy units, equipment that uses electromagnetic radiation (light) for the treatment of neonatal jaundice, in order to reduce the severity of neonatal hyperbilirubinemia. The administration of phototherapy will depend on bilirubin levels, age of life, gestational age at birth…
Identification of anions by colorimeter
Anions are negatively charged ions, are in solution and are attracted to the anode, or positive electrode. To identify anions in solution, we can use a colorimeter. A colorimeter is an instrument that uses light to measure the concentration of a solution. Light passes through the solution and its absorbance is measured, it is then related to the concentration of the solution.
Use of the Colorimeter in determining the concentration of nutrients in the water used in the laboratory
A colorimeter is a tool used to determine the concentration of a chemical in a sample. It is a portable and compact device that can be used both in the laboratory and in the field. Therefore, in Kalstein we have the optimal colorimeter that measures the absorbance of a solution, and converts the concentration of a substance into a numerical value. This tool is very useful for measuring the concentration of nutrients in water, since accurate and fast results can be obtained.
The Colorimeter in Chemical Analysis
The colorimeter is a measuring instrument used to measure the concentration of a chemical in a sample. The concentration is measured in terms of the absorbance of light by the sample, and the colorimeter can be measured over a wide range of wavelengths.
Colorimeter Calibration
A colorimeter is a device used to measure the concentration of a colorless solution. It is commonly used in water tests to measure the concentration of chlorine, dissolved oxygen, or carbon dioxide in water. It is also used in the printing industry to measure the color of inks and dyes.
