| In addition to top of the art specification
the bellow experiments require an uncompromised reliability.
Instruments used all derive from standard instruments and as
such provide the best testing platforms for our most
classical laboratory versions.
Beginning march, a full set Bio-Logic
instrumentation has flown in the Zero-G A-300 Airbus
from CNES These experiment have used a standard SFM-400/S stopped-flow, a MOS-DA diode array spectrometer, modular MOS-200 optical components and a control PC computer with all Bio-Logic driving software. They have involved fluorescence, light scattering and absorbance transient recordings during the zero-G portion of the parabolic trajectory of Airbus. In a tight collaboration between the Researchers and the Bio-Logic staff, all this equipment was conditioned to fulfill the constraints of zero-G flights. This has been greatly facilitated by the standard features and performances of the Bio-Logic instrumentation namely :
A total of 90 zero-G parabola were executed in three flights and all the Bio-Logic instrumentation performed on nominal performances even in this very unusual environment. Rapid kinetics experiments at zero-G may prove in the future to be an invaluable analytic tool for the study of polymerization processes or of reactions in the presence of aggregation or for all kinetic processes that involve heterogeneous phases.
