Using Advanced Techniques to Test the Performance of Recycled Bathroom Tissue | A video summary
As we attempt to reduce our environmental impact, many fields have changed. This includes bathroom tissue manufacturers, who are under increasing pressure to employ recycled paper as a sustainable raw material. Motivated by this shift, Dr Anett Kondor and her research team at Surface Measurement Systems Ltd studied four types of bathroom tissue, both recycled […]

iGC-SEA now supports 21CFR Part 11
With its release in 1997 of 21 CFR Part 11, the FDA specified its requirements for accepting electronic records in lieu of paper records. It is beneficial in future to design a discovery automation system to comply with Part 11 and to further codify the requirements for drug discovery records. If it does so, it […]

What is Surface Energy (SE)?
The most common property measure by inverse gas chromatography. It is analogous to the surface tension of liquids. Defined as the excess energy at the surface of a material compared to the bulk. Directly related to the thermodynamics work of adhesion Can be divided into a dispersive, acidic, and basic components.
What is the difference between Inverse Gas Chromatography (iGC) and Analytical Gas Chromatography?
The main difference between inverse GC and analytical GC is that we invert the roles of the stationary and mobile phase. So in inverse GC, we have a column, it could be a film, a fiber, a granule and we have carrier gas, nitrogen or helium and then we inject the probe molecule with known […]
What types of materials can be characterized by DVS and iGC-SEA instruments?
Damiano Cattaneo, Instrumentation Scientist of Surface Measurement Systems, shows the different types of materials that can be characterised using Dynamic Vapor Sorption (DVS) instruments.
Shelf-life Assessment of Food Products by Dynamic Vapour Sorption
The moisture sorption properties of food materials are fundamental considerations for the development and enhancement of food products since they may influence the stability and performance during processing, storage, and product use and this is especially true for food products that can take up a high amount of water. Shelf-life assessment is of great importance […]
