The new A2O™ Advanced Automated Osmometer from Advanced Instruments is a fully automated, multi sample osmometer. Combining functional design, exceptional analytical performance, and an intuitive software control package, the A2O™ is powerful and simple to operate.

Liquid handling is both time consuming and labour intensive. With intelligent liquid handling technology, the A2O™ is the first osmometer to eliminate liquid handling. Automatic sample processing minimizes sampling errors and improves test accuracy. Featuring liquid level sensing, crash detection, self-cleaning pipette and a simple fluid management system, the A2O™ delivers flexible sample processing while minimizing sample carryover and cross-contamination. A2O™ position primary sample tube carousel has been designed to accommodate the most common sample tubes sizes and low volume insert sample cups.

The A2O’s intuitive and flexible software provides the following benefits to laboratories:

- Easy-to-use touch-screen interface with multi-language capability.

- Integrated quality control with password protection, ability to set control limits for patient samples, statistical monitoring and graphing of daily

  controls, built in linearity check, and a search function to easily retrieve historical test results.

- Positive sample identification. An integrated bar code scanner with software control provides effective sample management and eliminates

  transcription errors.

- Sample testing protocols can be customized specifically for each laboratory’s unique test requirements.

At the Worldwide Food Expo 2009, Advanced Instruments showcased a range of instruments and systems including the world’s only three-minute fluorometric test method with multiple international agency approvals.  Each of these products represent leading solutions in their respective applications in terms of accuracy, reliability, efficiency, ease of use, and customer support.

Featured Products

The Fluorophos® Test System, offers a rapid, extremely sensitive fluorometric method that delivers accuracy over a range of ALP levels, including low values, for milk from cows (whole, semi-skimmed, skimmed and flavoured) as well as from sheep, water buffalo, and goats. Benefits include higher precision, reproducibility and a ten-fold improvement in test sensitivity.

In May 2007, the European Union (EU) adopted the Fluorimetric Method (ISO Standard 11816-1) as the new standard in assessing the correct pasteurization of milk. The system has also been unanimously approved as a full international standard method by The International Dairy Federation (IDF 155), the International Standards Organization, (ISO 11816), and the CEN European Standards Organization and is also approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), the US Interstate Milk Shippers, and AOAC International.

The 4250 Single-Sample Cryoscope uses the industry-preferred freezing-point method to precisely determine added water in milk. The 4250 delivers superior accuracy and reliability in two minutes, on-board sample identification, and accurate results in either timed plateau or plateau-seeking mode.

CryoLine™ Consumable Supplies have been designed specifically to achieve the most accurate results from freezing point cryoscopes. CryoLine products are designed to ensure the quality of sample results, while meeting or exceeding ISO, HACCP, and QA/QC requirements. CryoLine supplies provide reliable, traceable materials for use with milk and dairy products — offering stable results and assured monitoring and control of milk supply process and product integrity, from farm to finished product.
