Relative viscometer.


An automated relative viscometer viscometer

Instrument for measuring the viscosity (resistance to internal flow) of a fluid. In one type, the time taken for a given volume of fluid to flow through an opening is recorded.
 system has been introduced for the determination of relative, intrinsic, inherent, specific and absolute viscosity Noun 1. absolute viscosity - a measure of the resistance to flow of a fluid under an applied force
coefficient of viscosity, dynamic viscosity

coefficient - a constant number that serves as a measure of some property or characteristic
, as well as molecular weight. The automated relative viscometer system features the company's patented, dual-capillary viscometer, specifically designed to measure the viscosities of dilute polymer solutions. The relative viscometer is said to provide faster analysis, greater accuracy, better precision and less solvent exposure The solvent exposure of an amino acid in a protein measures to what extent the amino acid is accessible to the solvent (usually water) surrounding the protein. Generally speaking, hydrophobic amino acids will be buried inside the protein and thus shielded from the solvent, while  when compared to conventional glass tubes. In addition to the relative viscometer, the system consists of the Vortex integrated autosampler/autopreparation module for fully automated sample preparation and sample delivery. ETA e·ta
