Designed to bring full, lab-based fluorometery testing and analysis to the field, the OS-5p weighs 80 percent less than its predecessor, the OS5-FL, and will operate continuously, when charged, for more than 20 hours. <\/p>\n<p> <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/Send2Press.com\/wire\/images\/07-0815-OptiSci_72dpi.jpg\" align=\"left\" hspace=\"20\" alt=\"(c) Send2Press\" \/>&#8220;No longer do researchers have to compromise on the equipment they take out into the field,&#8221; Bill Berzins, CEO of Opti-Sciences said. &#8220;The OS-5p enables them to perform the most arduous testing right on site.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p> Berzins explains that the OS-5p is easy to use and incorporates the most advanced testing currently found in any PAM chlorophyll fluorometer made today. <\/p>\n<p> Additionally, Opti-Sciences (www.optisci.com) has also managed to keep the purchase cost down, making it affordable for most budgets. <\/p>\n<p> The OS-5p offers high energy, optically-monitored sources and sensitive, low-noise detection of fluorescence response for stable and accurate measurements. The broad range of user-defined source intensities, amplifier gain, saturation pulses and modulation sample rates provide exceptional control over the test processes.<\/p>\n<p> Included are LED (for power conservation) and Halogen (for high saturation) light sources. Setting up specific tests and parameters is quick and easy using the touch-sensitive input screen and handy cell-phone like keypad. <\/p>\n<p> Popular testing parameters of the OS-5p include: Y: Yield; Fo: non-variable fluorescence; Fm: maximal fluorescence; Fv: variable fluorescence; Fv\/Fm: photochemical efficiency of PSII; Fod: depression of the Fo value; Fms: maximal fluorescence-steady state condition; Fs: fluorescence prior to saturation pulse-steady state condition; and more. <\/p>\n<p> The optional PAR clip provides: ETR: electron transport rate; PAR: Photosynthetically Active Region value; and T: leaf temperature.<\/p>\n<p> Applications include: non-invasive study of photosynthesis in plants, crops and algae; it is ideal for teaching and classroom demonstration; rapid test analysis for high throughput\/quality control screening; in detecting and monitoring environmental stress; and in plant biology, phytopathology, and agronomy it has limitless areas of use. <\/p>\n<p> Additional computer equipment is not mandatory due to the large built in graphics display screen and convenient MMC\/SD storage memory. Ethernet, USB and RS-232 I\/O are included for those who wish to download their data for analysis at a later time.<\/p>\n<p> Opti-Sciences, Inc. specializes in the design and manufacture of research grade, fluorescent-measurement products. These products address fluorometery requirements in agriculture, forestry, agronomy, ecology, genetics and manufacturing inspection. <\/p>\n<p> Located in Hudson, N.H., Opti-Sciences operates from a 15,000 square foot, state-of-the art facility. <\/p>\n<p> For more information, visit: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.optisci.com\" target=\"_new\" rel=\"noopener\">www.optisci.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>News issued by: Opti-Sciences, Inc.<\/p>\n<p> # # # <\/p>\n<p><small>Original Story ID:  (3141) :: 2007-08-0815-003<\/small><\/p>\n<p><small>Original Keywords: Opti-Sciences Inc, fluorescent measurement products, fluorometery requirements in agriculture, forestry, agronomy, ecology, genetics and manufacturing inspection, non-invasive study of photosynthesis in plants, crops and algae, CEO Bill Berzins Opti-Sciences, Inc.   <\/small><\/p>\n<p class=\"s2pred\"><strong>NEWS SOURCE: Opti Sciences Inc.<\/strong> | Published: 2007-08-15 22:12:00<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>HUDSON, N.H. &#8211; Aug. 15 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) &#8212; Opti-Sciences, Inc., home of advanced field-portable fluorescence instrumentation, announced today a new high-end multi-mode pulse modulated chlorophyll fluorometer &#8211; the OS-5p.
