S104 DOX Differential O2 Analyzer
Qubit Systems’ S104 Differential O2 Analyzer (DOX) is the world’s only patented differential oxygen analyzer with a resolution of ± 1 ppm O2 against a background of air. With the S104 DOX, researchers can measure real-time rates of respiratory oxygen consumption from tiny insects and photosynthetic oxygen production from a single intact leaf. The S104 Differential O2 Analyzer has the greatest dynamic range of any gas analyzer on the market and on a lower resolution setting it can measure O2 exchange in larger animals, even Human.
When used with a CO2 analyzer (S157) in an open gas exchange system, measurements of Gas Exchange Quotient allow non-invasive studies of respiratory metabolite determination and analyses of reductant flow in anabolic and catabolic reactions.
Features
- ±1 ppm oxygen resolution against air (that’s 0.0001%!)
- Widest dynamic range of any oxygen analyzer
- Easy calibration without special calibration gases
- Separate analog signals for reference and sample pO2
- Analog signals for differential pO2, absolute pressure, differential pressure, sample and reference cell temperature, instrument temperature
Applications
- Single Leaf Photosynthetic O2 Exchange
- Insect Respiratory O2 Consumption
- Small and Large Animal Respirometry
- Soil Respiration
- Leaf Dark Respiration Rate
- Human Metabolic Studies (Room Calorimetry)
