Preparation of solutions and standards is made simpler with automated devices that dispense a substance of interest with high accuracy. This can help to conserve samples, speed up processes, and enhance reproducibility. A sensitive analytical balance is a must for producing truly repeatable results when working with milligrams of solids or liquids. Alternatively, a quality lab automation system such as the XPR Automatic Balance allows you to handle many different types of substances and dose to various types of vessels. Fine, fluffy, electrostatically charged, compacted, granular and heterogenous solids, as well as nanoparticles, mixtures and viscous liquids can all be dispensed with pristine accuracy in seconds, helping to ensure accurate solution preparation.
