Oxygen and Carbon Dioxide Headspace Gas Analyzer for MAP

Labthink develops and manufacturs advance testing instruments for Oxygen and Carbon Dioxide headspace gas analysis in packaging including rigid, semi-rigid, flexible packages. The analysis of headspace can be critical in determining shelf life of products. 

Labthink Headspace Gas Analyzer HGA-01 can be used to determine the volumes and proportions of O2 and CO2 in the packaging. 

Because of its portable design, the instrument could be used on production lines, at warehouses, or in laboratories, to serve as a guide for production and assure shelf life. 

Many packages are testable, including the packages for instant food, milk powder, bread, meat, medical products, cheese, coffee, soft drinks, agriculture products and MAP packages, active package, and anticorrosive packages.

Residual Oxygen Analysis in Transfusion Bags

Unplasticized PVC softener transfusion is used in a wide array of products peer. Because of its low cost and convenience in transportation and storages. Residual oxygen in the transfusion bags affects the quality and shelf life of medicines directly. Labthink HGA-01 Headspace Gas Analyzer and the parts can easily and efficiently solves the oxygen analysis in transfusion bags.

<I> Why should we control the residual Oxygen in Transfusion Bags?

Oxygen is an important factor that affects shelf life of medicine in transfusion bags. It is reported that it can extend shelf life and improve maintenance quality of medicine by controlling residual oxygen in the packages. In order to reduce residual oxygen, MAP and CAP are more and more used in the transfusion industry. Usually, Nitrogen or mixed nitrogen and carbon dioxide is used as protected gases. However, we can’t avoid oxygen in the packages. If we can’t analyze the gases proportion in the sealed packages accurately, it is hard to estimate and label the shelf life on the packaging.
