ACM-200
Anthocyanin Content Meter
Anthocyanin Content Meter.
The ACM-200 plus Anthocyanin Content Meter provides an estimate of anthocyanin content on intact leaves of plants and flowers. The measurement is rapid, nondestructive, and simple to obtain, allowing researchers to gather reliable data that has been shown to correlate to chemical testing.
Note: It should not be used with samples that have high chlorophyll content.
An affordable instrument that works with leaves and flowers. Works well with samples that do not have a high chlorophyll content (van den Berg A.K., Perkins T.D. 2005), (Morris J.B., Wang M.L. 2007). One handed operation. Averaging options.
- Stores up to 50,000 measurements
- Displays Anthocyanin Content Index
- Ability to calculate sample averages (from 2-30)
- Integrated GPS/GLONASS location receiver
- Data is stored in comma delimited files
- USB port for easy data transfer
- Lightweight, hand-held design, optimized for field work
- Graphic data display
