Analytical Instrumentation for Chemistry Education
Demonstrate chemistry principals with real-world instruments geared for hands-on learning
Classroom ready and rugged. Teach chemistry with real-world analytical instrumentation. We offer spectrometers, rheometers and spectrophotometers found in analytical labs around the world. Sized for tabletops, easy to store and transport, and equipped with friendly software and user interfaces, these tools help your students understand the foundations of analytical chemistry and learn skills applicable to technical careers and advanced studies.
- FTIR: Determine functional groups, predict identity through library searches, perform quantitative measurements, and assess physical and chemical properties of many materials.
- UV-Visible: Measure DNA, RNA, and protein concentrations, follow enzyme kinetics to calculate rate constants, biochemical and biological colorimetric assays, review Beer’s Law, understand scanning and fixed wavelength measurements.
- Rheology: Study the behavior of liquids and semi-solid materials, including absolute viscosity, thixotropic behavior and yield point.
SPECTRONIC 200 Spectrophotometer
The latest edition of the world-famous Spec 20 found in classroom for decades, the Thermo Scientific™ SPECTRONIC™ 200 is the perfect system for teaching the basic principles of spectrophotometry and spectrophotometer operation. Durable construction and spill-resistant design stand up to classroom use, while modern controls help students focus on chemistry. Full spectrum scans and four point quantitative analysis.
GENESYS™ 50 Visible Spectrophotometer
The Thermo Scientific GENESYS 50 UV-Vis is excellent for analytical chemistry education because it combines real-lab UV-Vis capability (190–1100 nm) with a rugged, classroom-friendly design (spill-shedding exterior and washable sampling compartment) so students can run core experiments like Beer–Lambert law, calibration curves, and kinetics repeatedly with minimal downtime.
Nicolet Summit X FTIR Spectrometer
The Thermo Scientific™ Nicolet™ Summit™ X FTIR Spectrometer is a compact, easy-to-use system that helps students connect molecular vibrational “fingerprints” to real-world chemical identification and quality checks. It can support hands-on labs like functional group identification, polymer screening, mixture comparison, and introductory method development with common FTIR accessories.
HAAKE Viscotester iQ Rheometer
Demonstrate the study of flow and deformation of materials under applied forces such as polymeric liquids, suspensions, emulsions, surfactants and gels with our versatile and student-friendly Thermo Scientific™ HAAKE™ Viscotester™ iQ Educational Package. Ideally sized for classroom use, this fully featured rheometer package includes several sampling plates and cylinders and temperature control modules to handle a wide range of sample materials.
