Case Studies

Magnesium based alloys are common place within science and technology. However, biodegradability and other alloy properties now open new applications. Degradation tests can easily be performed using the METTLER TOLEDO DL50 titrator to maintain the pH value of testing liquids during the week-long tests necessary.

Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC) is an indispensable analytical technique for the study of organic molecule polymorphism. Mr. Thibaud Detoisien of Condensed Materials and Nanosciences (CRMCN) in Marseille, France, was the winner of METTLER TOLEDO’s DSC 1 academia contest and is now planning to enhance his research results with the instrument.

As one of the nation’s top universities for public research, the University of California in Davis, U.S.A. invests a significant amount of time and money into advancing academic and extra-curricular programs. METTLER TOLEDO’s pH meter helps to assure the accuracy of students’ experiment results and most importantly, save on cost and time incurred.

Heart attacks are the major cause of deaths worldwide, with disorders of blood coagulation playing a significant role in this statistic. If agglomerates in the blood do not dissolve, blood clots form. Possible consequences include heart attack (plugged coronary vessels), pulmonary embolism or deep vein thrombosis. Drugs from snake venom aid early detection and treatment. Basel-based Pentapharm AG is one of the world’s leading suppliers of blood coagulation diagnostics and treatment based on snake venom.

The new mass comparator – the M_one – will improve Korea Research Institute of Standards and Science’s (KRISS) development of its R&D department by producing better results.
