Product Description
THE FISKE? 210 Micro-Sample Osmometer
The Fiske? 210 freezing-point osmometer requires only a 20|ìL sample size, which provides accurate osmolality results in less than 90 seconds. For convenience, the fully accessible probe design is easy to clean and service. The 210 is not only your most reliable option, it's the easiest to use. Just pipet 20|ìL of sample into a disposable sample tube, then place the tube into the test chamber. Lower the probe into the sample and push the "Test" button. Results are displayed in ninety seconds. Clinical Applications of Osmometry:
Determine Osmol Gap- actual versus calculated osmolality is a rapid indicator for toxicology and trauma cases. Remember, only freezing point method is sensitive to alcohol and ketones.
Mannitol Treatment- maintain, without exceeding, critical level of therapeutic infusion.
Glycine Ingestion- monitor the absorption of irrigation fluids in surgical procedures.
Differentiate DKA and NKH- only a measured osmolality can make this determination and guide effective therapy.
Renal Function- evaluate concentrating ability and monitor ADH therapy.
Hydration Status for Athletes- weight class and endurance events are conducive to dehydration, with performance and health consequences.
Sample Authentication for Drug Screens- low urine osmolality is indicative of tampering.
