GL6

A premium, world class system, Analox Analysers offer unparalleled analytical performance and versatility to assist the Industrial, Commercial & Biotechnology markets. The Analox GL6 Analyser is an ultra-fast stand alone system for analysis of a range of chemistries in a range of fluids. The system offers exceptional precision and accuracy and is used in a variety of applications. It is delivered pre-programmed with 5 of your preferred single point calibration assays depending on you area of interest: Ethanol, Glucose, Glycerol, Lactate, Methanol, Sucrose or Lactose.

Contact us to find out how the GL6 can assist with your testing needs or for a quote. We also manufacture a range of reagents, kits and standards for use with the GL6 to ensure effective, reliable and reproducible results.

Application Areas

Area	Example Topics
Industrial Process Control	Using microbial oil produced from biodiesel by-products Process control in monitoring the production of dairy products
Food & Beverage Production	As a marker for spoilage in eggs, milk, tinned fruits and vegetables Improving the flavour and stability of foods Detecting methanol contamination in beer, spirits and wine
Fermentations in Food & Beverage Production	Monitoring malolactic fermentation in wine (Oenology)
Pharmaceuticals	Developing drugs for sepsis Humectant use in drug development
Biotechnology	Increasing the sucrose content of sugarcane for production of chemicals, medicines and biofuels
Offshore Methane Fuel Extraction	Developing sustainable gasoline blending options
Toiletry Production	Development of oral care/hygiene products

Operation

After calibration with a standard of the selected analyte, the single injection of sample is all that is needed to obtain a result and prepare the analyser for the next analysis.

Sample injection via an accurate positive displacement pipette triggers the complete analytical cycle and a hard-copy result is printed within 25 seconds.
