The importance of Pure Water in labs
Purified water has long been an essential raw material used in clinical, pathology and haematology laboratories. Regardless of the application or the volume or quality of water required, there are certain critical factors…
Reverse Osmosis in laboratory water purification systems
Reverse osmosis (RO) is a powerful method of producing purified water for clinical and biomedical laboratories. However, poor specification and incorrect maintenance procedures can significantly reduce the quality of output from RO water purification systems.
Maintaining and servicing laboratory RO systems
Choosing, operating and maintaining a clinical RO water system should be straightforward. So, what are the specific problems that prevent the best results from being achieved?
How to remove bacteria in purified laboratory water
Purified water is a critical resource for clinical and biomedical laboratories for a range of applications. In each case, consistent and high-water quality is crucial for conducting reproducible and comparable tests.
Electrodeionisation in laboratory water purification systems
Deionised water, or DI water, has had the majority of the ions removed through a purification process. Clinical laboratories use deionised water for a variety of purposes, each requiring different levels of purity.
Clinical water: water purity and pH
The pH scale was first defined in 1909 by the Danish chemist, Søren Sørensen, and has been widely in use ever since. The pH scale provides a standardised method of measuring the acidity or alkalinity (basicity) of a solution.
