Wyatt Technology, the industry leader in instruments for absolute macromolecular characterisation, announces the availability of its revolutionary refractive index (RI) detector - the Optilab rEX.

This innovative product has 256 times the detection power and up to 50 times the dynamic range of any other RI detector in existence.

The Optilab rEX is a new generation of instrument that offers a multitude of unique features.

With a combination of cutting-edge semiconductor photodiode technology and proprietary computer algorithms, the Optilab rEX presents a host of instrument firsts.

These include the ability to view the full range of instrument detection at all times.

In addition, the Optilab rEX can also measure the dn/dc of a solvent at the same wavelength of light as a light scattering instrument, enabling absolute molecular weight determinations.

The Optilab rEX can also measure the absolute refractive index of a solution; this is a unique option not possible with any other on-line RI detectors.

This new instrument shares the ability of its predecessor (the Optilab DSP) to reach below ambient temperatures as easily as above ambient ones.

The no hassle temperature control can be programmed to as low as 4C or as high as 50C and is compatible with all HPLC systems.

With over 35 years' experience in developing sophisticated laboratory instrumentation, Wyatt Technology has established a reputation as the leader in delivering innovative products to the biotechnology, chemical, petrochemical and pharmaceutical industries.

Wyatt continues to build on this lead with the launch of pioneering products such as the Optilab rEX.

Wyatt Technology is the world's leading manufacturer of laser light scattering instrumentation for absolute macromolecular characterisation, with installations in more than 50 countries.

It is the only company in the world focused exclusively on such systems, their design, and their application.
