Explanation of measurements display
Angle of rotation
The angle of rotation is the basic numeric value measured by
polarimeters, and changes depending on the concentration of the
solution, the length of the observation tube, temperature, and/or the
measurement wavelength. It is symbolized by "
α
" and indicated in " ° ."
International Sugar Scale
The International Sugar Scale is indicated in "
°Z ."
The measurement value of 26g of sucrose in 100ml of sucrose solution
in a 200mm observation tube is 100°Z. This measurement value is
commonly used in the sugar manufacturing industry, and is usually
temperature-compensated to the reference temperature of 20°C (68°F).
The AP-300 can display the measurement value with or without temperature
compensation (Automatic Temperature Compensation, "
ATC ").
Specific Rotation
The Specific Rotation is a numeric value unique to each substance. By
definition, the specific rotation value is equivalent to the angle of
rotation obtained by a measuring a solution of 100% concentration in a
100mm observation tube (although such a measurement is actually not
practical).
Specific rotation is symbolized by "
[α]
" and indicated in " ° ."
Concentration
The Concentration is the density of a liquid solution made by dissolving
an optically active substance in water or alcohol. It is indicated in
"
g/100ml ."
Purity
The Purity is the proportion of sucrose compared to the soluble solid
content in a sample. It is indicated in "
% ." To measure the purity, input
the Brix value of the sample (which can be obtained by using an ATAGO
refractometer) into the AP-300 before taking a measurement.
