Toxicity testing system for lab and field applications
Sep 13 2010
The TOXmini is a portable and easy to use system for toxicity measurements in a wide variety of samples and applications. It automatically measures the luminescent effect of the Vibrio fisheri and will give an indication when the tested sample is toxic.
As a mobile test system with a high sensitive detector (Ultra Fast Single Photon Counter) the TOXmini is suitable for a wide range of applications.
In accordance with the defined threshold values, the results could be classified and indicated by the illumination of the appropriate LED.
It can be used in the laboratory (also in combination with the optional cooling block) and as a field system running on the recharchable internal batteries. It is also an ideal solution to be used on conjunction with the TOXcontrol because it uses the same reagents (freeze dried bacteria, blank solution and positive control).
Technical Data:
- Detector: Ultra Fast Single Photon Counter, wave range: 380 - 630 nm
- Software: microprocessor software, 6 user specific measurement protocols
- Data storage: max. 2000 measurements
- Display: illuminated graphic display (128 x 64 dots)
- Interface: RS 232 interface for data transfer to the PC or printer
- Operating mode: battery or grid
- Mains power supply: 230 V / 50 Hz, 115 V / 60 Hz
- Dimensions (H / W / D): 170 x 150 x 280 mm (6.7 x 5.9 x 11.0 in)
- Weight: 2 kg (incl. batteries)
- Temperature Range: +15 ºC to +30 ºC ( 59 ºF to 86ºF)
Applications :
- Intake protection for drinking water companies
- Waste water checking : Influent and effluent measurements
- Process water security control for food applications for HACCP applications
- Testing the sensitivity of the luminescent bacteria (Vibrio Fischeri)
- Off-line comparison with the on-line TOXcontrol
- QA/QC applications of bacteria and reagents
- Other toxicity applications
