Beschreibung
CAL-O-5 is a certified standard silicone oil with a defined viscosity of 5 mPas at 25 °C, supplied in a 500 ml pack. It is intended for verifying the measurement accuracy of ROTAVISC rotational viscometers in laboratory quality control and routine calibration work. The certificate is included with the product, supporting documented checks of instrument performance against a known reference viscosity. Other standard silicone oils with different viscosities or temperature conditions can be ordered to customer specification when required. This calibration fluid from manufacturer IKA provides a practical reference medium for viscosity measurement workflows in research, analytical and industrial laboratories. Net weight is 0,920 kg. The oil is non-sterile and suited to controlled laboratory environments where reliable viscosity standards are needed for instrument verification. Use CAL-O-5 whenever a low-viscosity silicone reference at 25 °C is specified for ROTAVISC accuracy checks.
This article is part of Microscopy stains & staining solutions, in Dyes, stains & indicators.

Questions about CAL-O-5, Standard silicon oil, 5 mPas, 25?, 500 ml
What is this article?
CAL-O-5, Standard silicon oil, 5 mPas, 25?, 500 ml is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes IKA for laboratory use. It sits in Microscopy stains & staining solutions, inside Dyes, stains & indicators, in Labor- und Industriechemikalien.
A microscopy stain binds a structure so it can be seen: haematoxylin on nuclei, eosin on cytoplasm, Gram reagents on a bacterial wall. A ready solution and a dry dye to be dissolved are different articles. The method names the stain. A substitute dye is a different method.
A dye or a stain binds, or changes colour, so that something invisible becomes visible. An indicator changes at a pH or a redox point. A fluorescent dye absorbs one wavelength and emits another, which is how a microscope or a plate reader picks it out. The excitation and emission, or the transition interval, are the specification. The colour name on the label is not. Structures are on PubChem under IUPAC names. Methods are in the PubMed literature.
