Product overviewOsmoSpecial 1 is a semiautomatic single-sample osmometer for rapid determination of freezing-point depression (osmolality) in biological and pharmaceutical liquid samples. Results are displayed in mOsm/kg and °C; the instrument is intended for clinical, research and pharmaceutical laboratory use.
Applications- Clinical chemistry and laboratory quality control
- Pharmaceutical formulation and quality control
- Research on biological fluids (plasma, serum, urine)
Embedded mediaIntegrated demonstration/manual video available (YouTube embed) illustrating single-sample operation and routine handling.
Technical features- Single-sample semiautomatic operation with disposable plastic tubes (50–200 µl)
- Peltier-cell temperature bath controlled by software (no cooling liquid)
- Induced ventilation and software-controlled agitation
