ICHOS II laboratory acoustic emission and detection instrument
laboratory acoustic emission and detection
ICHOS II is a state of the art ultrasonic spectrometer - open the door to a new dimension in chemical and physical measurement. Ultrasound interacts in a variety of ways with liquids and suspensions. This is observable by changes in the transmission properties and sound velocity of the sample. Ultrasonic spectroscopy provides unique information on systems hard to study by other techniques.
Protein conformation - observe changes in tertiary structure
Study complex chemical equilibria – acid base equilibria, complexation - elucidate equilibrium and rate constants
Particle size studies
On-line measurements of concentration, composition, suspensions

features & benefits
features
benefits
Very Broadband
Enables models to be fitted to the spectra to elucidate rate constants, equilibrium constants, particle size distribution.
Experimental automation - temperature programming, in cell titration, time behavior
Most experiments are multidimensional i.e. observing the change in the spectrum as a result of changing the pH or the temperature. This enables these studies to easily performed.
Measurement cell flexibility
ICHOS can operate with may different measurement cells - a single instrument can be used with standard cells, micro cells (very low volume), non-invasive emat transducers, on-line probes and flow cells. Specialized cells can be developed to suit ALL applications.
Measures both attenuation and ultrasonic velocity
Enables both of these parameters to be used in system modeling.
