56 Increase Your Lab’s Efficiency with Automated Powder Dispensing
In most laboratories, weighing is the heart of many processes and needs to be executed accurately and efficiently. However, manual weighing and dosing of very small amounts of powdery samples is extremely time consuming, since the samples may be difficult to handle, inhomogeneous, toxic, electrostatically charged, etc. and the tolerances demanded are tight.
Find out how automated powder dispensing can: increase your lab’s efficiency; improve user safety; lets you save time and money.

51219pr@reply-direct.com Free eLearning Avoids Common Error Sources and Improves Weighing Safety
A free eLearning from Mettler-Toledo helps you enrich your knowledge about working in different types of safety enclosures, handling toxic substances, and weighing in a safe, error-free way. Register for the 50-minute session now to improve both your safety and productivity when using lab balances.
Whenever you are working in a laboratory - particularly when handling toxic substances - safety is an important concern. The needs for safety extends to a common yet often overlooked action: Weighing.
During weighing, users may risk direct contact with the substance being weighed. This risk may be inherent in the standard operating procedure or caused by external factors such as unexpected drafts or spills.
Because of this contamination risk, weighing requires certain general precautions that all users should be properly trained on to ensure a safe working environment. These general precautions include personal protective equipment (PPE) and, often, a safety enclosure.
Mettler-Toledo’s free eLearning is designed to help users structure their weighing tasks and safety-enclosure use to avoid contamination which can affect both health and weighing results. The 50-minute course covers: safety enclosure types; handling toxic substances; keeping weighing error-free; types of risk in the process; protection from those risks.
Following successful completion of a final test, a qualification certificate will be generated. This certificate can be printed and stored for internal training records and can be especially helpful for GMP qualification.
Enhance your weighing knowledge and ensure safety in your lab more effectively by completing the course. More information online:

Discover the 8 Simple Steps to a Long-Lasting Balance and a Cleaner, Safer Lab
A clean analytical or precision balance is the first step towards safe and accurate weighing. It can also be fast and easy with a thorough understanding of cleaning best practices. Download the free white paper ‘8 Steps to a Clean Balance’ from Mettler-Toledo today.
Keeping your laboratory clean can significantly improve operator safety and reduce cross-contamination risk. However, cleaning one important piece of equipment - your laboratory balance - may feel like a risk to the accuracy your lab relies on when preparing samples or solutions.
It doesn’t have to be. Download ‘8 Steps to a Clean Balance - and 5 Solutions to Keep It Clean’ today. When you do, you will learn: when a balance needs to be cleaned; materials and agents to use (and not to use) when cleaning; managing different balance parts during cleaning; whether or not the balance can be moved for cleaning; how to resume balance operations after cleaning.
Ideally, laboratory SOPs dictate the schedule for balance cleaning. However, particularly after weighing potentially toxic substances, the balance must be cleaned thoroughly to prevent exposure and cross-contamination risk.
See how easy it can be to keep your balance clean and extend its working life. More information online:

Make Sure External Influences Do Not Affect Your Weighing Results
Technological advances have simplified the operation of balances to make them easier to use and reduce weighing times. However, this apparent ease can mean external effects on weighing results are not considered. Learn how to ensure weighing productivity and accuracy with Mettler-Toledo’s new guide.
Inaccurate weighing can negatively influence the results of an entire analysis. Therefore, it is critically important to be aware of basic guidelines that need to be followed when working with even the most sophisticated laboratory balances. Mettler-Toledo’s new guide identifies the most common factors that affect weighing accuracy to help you obtain the most accurate results while keeping throughput high.
This guide begins with suggestions for the optimum location of a balance. It then describes proper operation of this sensitive instrument before analysing possible external influences and their effects. External influences - physical effects that can cause measurable disruption to laboratory balances - include: electrostatic forces; airflow; environmental vibrations; magnetism.
Sample characteristics such liquids that can evaporate quickly or the tendency of certain solids to be either hygroscopic or hydrophobic must also be considered and mitigated to ensure analytical accuracy. Learn more about the types of damage these influences can cause and find solutions to improve weighing accuracy and product quality. More information online:
