Netzsch STA 449 F3 Jupiter

The NETZSCH STA 449 F3 Jupiter® is a high-performance simultaneous thermal analyser designed to measure mass changes and thermal effects in materials across a broad temperature range from -150°C to 2400°C. This instrument is particularly valuable in the biotechnology sector for analysing the thermal stability and decomposition behaviour of biomaterials, polymers, and pharmaceuticals.

Key features include:

• Versatile temperature range: Accommodates analyses from -150°C to 2400°C, suitable for diverse applications.
• Interchangeable sample holders: Facilitates various measurement modes such as TGA, TGA-DTA, and TGA-DSC.
• Vacuum-tight design: Enables measurements under defined atmospheres, including inert, oxidising, and reducing conditions.
• High-resolution balance: Offers a weighing range up to 35,000 mg with a resolution of 0.1 µg, ensuring precise measurements.
• Flexible furnace options: User-exchangeable furnaces cover the complete temperature range, enhancing adaptability.

This analyser is widely utilised in biotechnology research for:

• Assessing thermal stability: Evaluating the stability of biomolecules and biopolymers under varying thermal conditions.
• Characterising decomposition behaviour: Understanding the breakdown processes of biological materials, essential for bioprocessing and biomanufacturing.
• Investigating phase transitions: Studying melting and crystallisation behaviours in synthetic biology applications.

Commonly employed in university laboratories, biomedical research centres, and biopharmaceutical companies, the NETZSCH STA 449 F3 Jupiter® has been a reliable tool in thermal analysis since its release. Its precision and versatility make it indispensable for researchers aiming to optimise materials and processes in the biotechnology industry.
