Micro-sample viscometer advances cranial aneurysm treatment

viscometer treatmentn development of new therapeutic cranial aneurisms leading south micro sample viscosimeter California biotechnology company faced a major challenge: How to accurately control the viscosity of medical injections. Find a solution, the company turned to Cambridge Viscosity.

The company manufactures a biological liquid, paste, the surgeon injected into the blood, the affected area cranium, when an aneurysm. The paste is produced in very small quantities and are quite expensive. To achieve the proper consistency, viscosity of the paste should be very accurate. If it is too thin, it will not achieve the appropriate block, if it is too thick, it can be safely injected. Biotechnology company requires easy to use viscometer in order to accurately assess the minimum amount of medical samples.

The company is already using the Cambridge Development Laboratory viscometers and their first-hand experience in sensor accuracy and reliability. They are faced with a problem, but when it came to measuring biological paste viscosity, because of the need to work with micro-samples of valuable material. The company chose Cambridge "VISCOlab 5000 micro-sample viscometer, because it requires only 75 micro-liter sample of research and production programs.

"Micro-sample of the Cambridge viscometers are widely used in pharmaceutical and biotechnology markets, where a very small amount of fluid to investigate, but the exact value of information is high," says Cambridge Viscosity President Robert Kasameyer. "It is gratifying to know that our sensors helps to speed up this exciting new approach to the treatment of intracranial aneurisms.

Determine the rheological properties of fluid systems is usually performed in the laboratory is time consuming and requires large amounts of fluids. Cambridge Viscosity has developed a new multi-shear inline viscometer that is changing all that. Accurate rheological information is now available to quickly process a small sample stream. shear viscometerr

Cambridge new multi-shear viscometer Newtonian and non-Newtonian fluids, ranging from the concentrated suspension of any type of coating. Rheological screening device as seen from the data controller, the measurements are compared with the same conditions, the same fluid as using a Rheometer. (See chart), the new Cambridge viscometer should be considered in any rheometric knowledge you need.
