Measuring the Opacity of Plastic Tubing with Vis-NIR Transmission Spectroscopy

 

Plastic tubing is available in a variety of opacities ranging from clear to translucent. The transparency of plastic tubing is varied for reasons such as providing contrast for visual monitoring of fluid flow, decreasing exposure to ambient light, and making the tubing more distinct for machine vision technology. In this application note, Visible-NIR transmission spectroscopy is used to assess the amount of frosting applied to plastic tubing to determine if the tubing meets the required opacity level.

Effect of Sandblasting on the Specular Reflection from Encoder Wheels

 

In this application note, conducted as part of a feasibility study, we measured the reflectivity of both metal and plastic encoder wheels before and after sandblasting. Sandblasting is often part of the process of preparing machined parts, and in this case may have been used to lessen the specular reflection of the metal and plastic materials.

Facilitating Discrimination Between Induction of DNA Damage, Oxidative Stress and Protein Misfolding Using a Novel Multicell GFP Reporter Assay

 

Exposure of cells to novel chemicals, xenobiotics and biologicals may induce damage at the organelle or biomolecular level that can jeopardize homeostasis and lead to induction of carcinogenicity. Current approaches to in vitro genotoxicity assessment that include the classical Ames bacterial mutation test followed by mammalian mutation assays lack specificity and provide limited information about mechanisms of genotoxicity. A new novel multicell GFP reporter assay was developed to help facilitate discrimination between induction of DNA damage, oxidative stress and protein misfolding.
