Columbus Instruments' New Oxymax ER is an ideal solution for Respirometry experiments on soil, water, and sludge. Using precise gas analyzers for oxygen and carbon dioxide, the head space gas exchange is measured directly in up to 10 different chambers / samples. With it rugged and compact design, it can be used in a laboratory with limited bench space or taken on site. In the lab, it connects to your Windows PC for experiment configuration and data collection/presentation (software included). The Oxymax ER can then also be carried on site, in stand alone operation, powered by a cigarette lighter adapter. The Oxymax ER can aid in the identification of contaminated sites; and then, turn right around and aid in the bioremediation effort by monitoring respiration of samples with different micro-nutrients, inoculum, etc.
