ABSTRACT

A fast and precise method for detergent concentration determination is presented. (Patent applications for the method described here have been submitted (EP05011904 and US60/702,261). Depending on the interest of the scientific community, the system will be commercialized. (For further information contact Hervé-W. Rémigy at the e-mail address below.) A small droplet of the detergent solution is deposited on a piece of Parafilm M and side views are recorded by two orthogonall...
