The sole equipment in the market fully compliant with ASTM D1177 is equipped with an integrated cryostat, capable of reaching -120°C, along with features such as a sample and seeding jacket, a user-friendly touch-screen interface, Ethernet connectivity, and two USB ports for printer or LIMS connections. Notably, this equipment adheres strictly to the ASTM D1177 standards, differing from other available options that often utilize the ASTM D2386 sample volume of 25 ml, while ASTM D1177 prescribes a larger volume ranging from 75 to 90 ml. The incorporated seeding jacket eliminates the necessity for a powerful cryostat to freeze the required sample portion for seeding purposes.
