Refractive Index Accreditation Granted

Refractive Index Accreditation Granted
ARO Scientific Ltd is granted dual accreditation status under The United Kingdom Accreditation Service (UKAS) to international standards ISO/IEC 17025 and ISO 17034, CAB No. 27393 for Refractive Index.

Why Refractive Index

Refractive Index is measured for many reasons and is useful for multiple applications. It is a parameter that provides valuable information into determining the concentration of liquid mixtures (i.e. any dissolved mixtures), as well as provide information into the sample’s purity and clarity. This is useful for identification and quality control purposes. Many industries will use refractometers for quality control purposes, particularly within food and beverage industries, from portable hand-held machines to benchtop-based refractometers such as Abbe or automatic digital refractometers. Temperature controlled refractometers are ideal for high-precision refractive index measurements. These are ideal for food, beverage, pharmaceutical, medical and petrochemical industries and applications.
