  • LSC- DTS Laboratory Sample Condenser
    Quality System Certified ISO 9001 LSC-DTS Sample Condenser Rev.2.doc Page 1 of 1 LSC- DTS Laboratory Sample Condenser LSC- DTS Laboratory Sample Condenser This LSC unit range of stainless steel tube shaft sterile heat exchangers with Double Tube Sheet (DTS) have been designed to allow Clean Steam (CS) and Water For Injection (WFI) samples to be taken quickly and easly whilst mantaining a sterile testing environment. LSC are ideal to be mounted at the sampling point and can be operated with either mains or chilled water as the cooling medium. Availability of aseptic sample valve allow fine control of sample flow during testing The LSC can be sterilised in situ-on-line, thus ensuring continuity of samples regardless of testing frequency, ideal for fluids in pharmaceutical and purity systems applications. Typical applications: Steam sampling In-line conductivity monitoring Point of use cooling Feature offered by the unit include: AISI 316L (1.4404) stainless steel construction Double Tube Sheet (DTS) Meets FDA and 3A specifications Full material traceability Self draining design Compact, easy to install Fully sterilisable/autoclavable Sample Condenser operation The medium to be condensed/cooled passes throught the tube side. Typically a regulating valve will be used to throttle the sample medium flow. Cooling water is channelled countercurrent inside the shell in order to ensure maximum efficiency. The heat energy of the sample medium is absorbed by the flowing cooling water, resulting in a drop in the sample temperature. Where steam is the sample medium, the cooling water will firstly absorb the steam’s latent heat content, condensing it back to water.

  • Grignard Synthesis of Triphenylmethanol Reactions That Form Carbon-Carbon Bonds Are Among the Most Useful to the Synthetic Organic Chemist
    1 Experiment 12: Grignard Synthesis of Triphenylmethanol Reactions that form carbon-carbon bonds are among the most useful to the synthetic organic chemist. In 1912, Victor Grignard received the Nobel prize in chemistry for his discovery of a new series of reactions that result in the formation of a carbon-carbon bond. A Grignard synthesis first involves the preparation of an organomagnesium reagent via the reaction of an alkyl bromide with magnesium metal: δ– δ+ R Br + Mg R MgBr The resulting “Grignard reagent” acts as both a good nucleophile and a strong base. Its nucleophilic character allows it to react with the electrophilic carbon in a carbonyl group, thus forming the carbon-carbon bond. Its basic property means that it will react with acidic compounds, such as carboxylic acids, phenols, thiols and even alcohols and water; therefore, reaction conditions must be free from acids and strictly anhydrous. Grignard reagents will also react with oxygen to form hydroperoxides, thus they are highly unstable when exposed to the atmosphere and are generally not isolated from solution. For a variety of reasons, anhydrous diethyl ether is the solvent of choice for carrying out a Grignard synthesis. Vapors from the highly volatile solvent help to prevent oxygen from reaching the reaction solution. In addition, evidence suggests that the ether molecules actually coordinate with and help stabilize the Grignard reagent: Et Et O R Mg Br O Et Et The magnesium metal used in the synthesis contains a layer of oxide on the surface that prevents it from reacting with the alkyl bromide. The pieces of metal must be gently scratched while in the ether solution to expose fresh surface area so that the reaction can commence.

  • CHEM 344 Distillation of Liquid Mixtures
    CHEM 344 Distillation of liquid mixtures 1. Distillation basics The vaporization of a liquid and condensation of the resulting vapor is the basis of distillation. Organic liquids containing small amounts (<15%) of impurities or non-volatile substances are easily purified by simple distillation, as are liquid mixtures where the difference in boiling point of the components is >70 oC. Fractional distillation is more useful for separating mixtures of liquids where the boiling points of the components differ by <70 oC (see later). A typical simple distillation setup is shown in Figure 1. It consists of a flask containing the liquid to be distilled, an adapter to hold a thermometer and to connect the flask to a water-cooled condenser, and a flask to hold the condensed liquid (the distillate). Figure 1: Apparatus for a simple distillation. 1.1 The distillation flask The distillation flask is a round-bottom flask. The liquid to be distilled should fill the distillation flask to ~50-60% of its capacity. To promote even heating of the liquid, a boiling chip or a magnetic stir bar is added before heat is applied to the distillation flask. The irregular chips provide sites for bubbles of vapor to form, or alternatively the liquid is agitated with the magnetic stirrer as it is being heated. Never add a boiling chip or a stir bar to a hot liquid! Doing so can cause a seemingly calm liquid to boil suddenly and violently. 1 1.2 The distilling adapter The adapter connects the distillation flask, the condenser, and the thermometer. This type of adapter is often referred to as a distillation head.

  • Laboratory Equipment Used in Filtration
    KNOW YOUR LAB EQUIPMENTS Test tube A test tube, also known as a sample tube, is a common piece of laboratory glassware consisting of a finger-like length of glass or clear plastic tubing, open at the top and closed at the bottom. Beakers Beakers are used as containers. They are available in a variety of sizes. Although they often possess volume markings, these are only rough estimates of the liquid volume. The markings are not necessarily accurate. Erlenmeyer flask Erlenmeyer flasks are often used as reaction vessels, particularly in titrations. As with beakers, the volume markings should not be considered accurate. Volumetric flask Volumetric flasks are used to measure and store solutions with a high degree of accuracy. These flasks generally possess a marking near the top that indicates the level at which the volume of the liquid is equal to the volume written on the outside of the flask. These devices are often used when solutions containing dissolved solids of known concentration are needed. Graduated cylinder Graduated cylinders are used to transfer liquids with a moderate degree of accuracy. Pipette Pipettes are used for transferring liquids with a fixed volume and quantity of liquid must be known to a high degree of accuracy. Graduated pipette These Pipettes are calibrated in the factory to release the desired quantity of liquid. Disposable pipette Disposable transfer. These Pipettes are made of plastic and are useful for transferring liquids dropwise. Burette Burettes are devices used typically in analytical, quantitative chemistry applications for measuring liquid solution. Differing from a pipette since the sample quantity delivered is changeable, graduated Burettes are used heavily in titration experiments.

  • Simple Apparatus for Cleaning Laboratory Ware Used in Trace Analysis
    Simple apparatus for cleaning laboratory ware used in trace analysis E. BEINROHR and M. ČAKRT Department of Analytical Chemistry, Faculty of Chemical Technology, Slovak Technical University, CS-81237 Bratislava Received 16 June 1988 A simple cleaning apparatus made of glass and teflon (PTFE) is de­ scribed and characterized. It is suitable for an efficient and rapid cleaning of small test tubes, volumetric flasks, crucibles, etc. made of glass, quartz, PTFE, glassy carbon. The cleaning effect arises from a continuous contact of hot vapours and condensates of the cleaning liquids (hydrochloric acid, nitric acid, water) with the inside of the air-cooled laboratory ware. The cleaning efficiency was tested by cleaning intentionally contaminated quartz test tubes and volumetric flasks. Описан и охарактеризован простой моющий аппарат из стекла и политетрафторэтилена (ПТФЭ). Он годится для эффективного и быс­ трого мытья небольших пробирок, волюмометрических колб, тиглей и т.п., изготовленных из стекла, кварца, ПТФЭ или стекловидного углерода. Моющий эффект возникает благодаря продолжительному контакту горячих паров и конденсатов моющих жидкостей (соляной кислоты, азотной кислоты, воды) с внутренней поверхностью возду­ хом охлаждаемой лабораторной посуды. Эффективность мытья была проверена посредством очистки сильно загрязненных кварцевых пробирок и волюмометрических колб. The accuracy of results in trace analysis can be seriously influenced by contamination of the sample during the analytical procedure. The most signifi­ cant contamination sources are reagents, airborne dust, containers, laboratory ware, and the analyst [1—3]. The contamination caused by the laboratory ware and containers is due to the desorption or leaching of elements from the surface of these vessels when being in contact with the sample and reagent solutions.

  • The Museum of Early Philosophical Apparatus at Transylvania University
    Bulletin of the History of Chemistry, 1991, 8, 22-27. CHEMICAL ARTIFACTS: THE MUSEUM OF EARLY PHILOSOPHICAL APPARATUS AT TRANSYLVANIA UNIVERSITY George M. Bodner Department of Chemistry, Purdue University Introduction In March, 1775, Colonel Richard Henderson purchased 20 million acres from the Cherokees in an unsettled region of the British colony of Virginia then known as "Kan-tuck- ee" and hired Daniel Boone to mark a permanent trail into this territory [1]. In May of the same year, the legislature that was assembled to organize a government for the new country voted to name it Transylvania (literally: across the woods), perhaps because the Romans had used this name to describe a region of eastern Europe that also lay beyond a great forest [2]. When news of this purchase reached the Virginia assembly, it was declared illegal because this body had reserved the right to extinguish Indian title to lands within its borders. Between 1775 and 1800, however, 150,000 people crossed through the Cumberland Gap and traveled down Boone's Wilderness Road into the region that the Virginia assembly eventually established as Kentuckee county. One of the problems colonists faced was that of preserving their British cultural heritage. To do this, they turned to the schools [3]. This might explain why the Virginia assembly took time in May, 1780 — during a period when their highest priority was the threat of British invasion following the fall of Charleston — to charter the establishment of Transylvania Seminary, which would serve as a spearhead of learning in the wilderness [1]. Transylvania thereby became the 16th college in the United States and the first on the other side of the Allegheny Mountains.
