Instruments with intuitive operating capabilities and built-in applications can enhance laboratory workflows. Sartorius’ Quintix balance has a touchscreen interface that works even when the user is wearing gloves. It includes applications like weighing in per cent, weighing under unstable conditions, and weighing components, including counting, mixing and check-weighing. Its capabilities include peak hold to determine the highest measurement in a series, as well as density determination, and statistics and conversion. The balance is available in 12 models, with weighing capacities ranging from 220 g to 5,100 g, and readabilities from 0.1 mg to 1 g. The Sartorius Group
