Food manufacturers of powder-based products must consider both weight and volume when packaging their goods. Use of a weight measurement ensures that each package provides the guaranteed portion due the customer. Volume of the product during the fill process, however, is oftentimes greater than the perceived amount in the bag once in the customer’s hands. This is due to consolidation of the powder which takes place in the intervening time period.

How do manufacturers know what this shrinkage factor will be? And will it cause a problem for the customer if they think that they are being cheated?

During uncertain times, knowing when and if outsourcing laboratory services makes sense is critical – especially to your bottom line. This white paper focuses
on the steps companies should follow for deciding whether or not outsourcing is the best option, how to properly evaluate funding an in-house laboratory, and how to use the Celsis Workload Assessment Model to proactively manage labor cost decisions.

More and more companies are looking at outsourcing laboratory services as a business strategy to drive cost savings. An array of services can be outsourced in the pharmaceutical and biopharmaceutical industries. These include research and laboratory testing as well as manufacturing.

In this white paper, we’ll focus on how to evaluate the costs and benefits of outsourcing lab services -- a key competitive differentiator and a way for companies to deliver greater value to their customers.

Brookfield, the world standard for viscosity measurement and control, offers two hands-on courses that equip users of Brookfield instruments with the knowledge to get the most out of their viscosity test methods. These one-day training sessions are presented in easy-to-understand terms that give attendees the working know-how to verify and improve upon the data required for meaningful R&D and successful QC testing.

The courses are offered at Brookfield’s headquarters in Middleboro, MA., and at major metropolitan areas across the United States. Arrangements can also be made to conduct courses at customers’ facilities where content can be adapted to their specific product applications.

PRACTICAL COURSE ON VISCOSITY MEASUREMENTS provides attendees with the tools and concepts they need to make the most precise viscosity measurements possible. The course is designed to benefit all operators from beginner to advanced. Participants are encouraged to bring product samples for testing where hands-on time is provided in a relaxed laboratory environment.

Winter/Spring 2011 Course Schedule

Practical Course on Viscosity Measurements

February 2 Los Angeles     February 10 Middleboro, MA

February 16 Columbus, OH     March 1 Ft. Lauderdale, FL

March 3 Raleigh, NC     March 10 Middleboro, MA

March 30 St. Louis, MO     April 13 Middleboro, MA

April 20 Chicago, IL

APPLIED COURSE ON VISCOSITY TEST METHODS is designed for the intermediate to advanced Brookfield Instrumentation user in R&D, Analytical, and Process Engineering functions. Focusing on test methods and techniques, it will review and discuss how Brookfield rotational viscometers and rheometers can be used to provide meaningful product analysis. The course takes you beyond pass/fail criteria, to an understanding of how to apply viscometric data as a problem solving and product performance/processing tool.

With relatively few progressions in conventional optical microscopy during the past decade, pushing through the physical limitations of these systems has proven to be challenging. Despite this stand-still, engineers have recently been able to develop solutions to some of the limitations in modern microanalysis. Using an integrated design approach, digital microscopes have been developed to overcome many of the shortcomings of conventional optical microscopes. Specifically, in regard to ceramics, one of the major difficulties in observing and analyzing these materials is the complete lack of contrast typically associated with them, especially when viewed through a traditional optical microscope. However, by using the advanced features of fully-integrated digital microscopes, coupled with highresolution zoom lenses and digital camera technology, users can now image samples that were previously relegated to the realm of an SEM.
