Cole-Parmer IFT 2001 Gift Pack

Cole-Parmer IFT 2001 Gift Pack

Not only is June National Dairy Month, but one of the largest food shows in the industry begins in just a few days. The Cole-Parmer booth at IFT® in New Orleans will feature efficient new products for food scientists and processors:

  • The breakthrough picoSpin™ Benchtop NMR Spectrometer from Cole-Parmer is the world’s first miniature NMR spectrometer. The 45-MHz picoSpin spectrometer is affordable, portable, and easy to use.
  •  The new Atago® Programmable Digital Refractometers with Touch Screen have a built-in thermomodule to ensure accuracy while also eliminating the need for a water bath circulator. Use this fully featured device to determine the refractive index of citrus, animal, or vegetable oils, and more. Take precise Brix measurements of fruit and concentrated juices, canned syrups, liquid sugars, and glucose with a Brix range of 0.00 to 100.00%.
  • The Oakton® Benchtop pH 700 Series Meters offer a compact footprint more than 40% smaller than similar benchtop meters―saving valuable space in the research lab. Visit the booth to see their oversized LCDs, with optimal visibility even at a distance. Instruments for food quality and safety testing will also be available, including viscometers, thermometers, and more.

What’s in it for you? Each day one raffle winner will receive a New Orleans Gift Pack valued at more than $200. The bags include a variety of “survive and thrive in New Orleans” items including a cooler, water bottle, gift certificate, and more. Register to win.


Shield Your Eyes! How to Protect Your Sight

January 20, 2011

With a nod to January as National Eye Care month, we are devoting today’s blog to solutions that protect your eyes. If you are at risk of accidental exposure to corrosive or caustic materials, you may need to have an eyewash station nearby. Several options are available. Here are a few of our favorites:

Fend-all Personal Eyewash Wall Stations

Emergency eyewash stations hold one or two bottles of flushing solution and affix easily to any wall with peel-off self-adhesive backing or mounting screws (included). Eyewash bottles have smaller openings to provide extended flow. Sealed solution bottles have a 36-month shelf life. Expiration date is printed on each bottle.

 

Portable Eyewash                                              

Goes anywhere to provide onsite emergency relief for eyes and face. Yellow, reinforced thermoplastic drench hose (8-ft) is designed to supply supplemental water to face and body. Stainless steel tank features tire filler valve and 0-100 psi air gauge. Pressure relief valve prevents accidental over-pressurization.

Bradley® On-Site Portable Gravity-Fed Eyewash

The highly visible Bradley On-Site transparent polycarbonate yellow tank lets you view when it’s time to refill or clean. Refillable—mix one 8 oz. bottle of water preservative with seven gallons of potable water to prevent growth in tank for up to six months. Solution can be tested monthly or when protocol dictates. The removable tank is inverted onto pedestal, piercing a liner. Water flow is activated when arm is pulled down.
