WHO WILL BENEFIT:
For existing customers, this is an opportunity to outsource in-vitro SPF testing during peak load or seasonal periods.
For those who do not yet own an SPF unit, this is a great time to utilize our SPF testing services and experience the benefits and efficacy of the SPF-290S Analyzer System and what it can do for you in your lab.
For those who do not have sufficient testing requirements to cost-justify an SPF unit, you can still get your in-vitro SPF results using the test equipment that has long been the industry leader and standard for SPF in-vitro test equipment. And fast!

FEATURES: Cost-effective in-vitro Sunscreen Protection Factor Measurement services are provided through Optometrics’ SPF test lab. Qualified technicians measure samples utilizing the SPF- 290S Analyzer. Comprehensive result reporting is available within 48 hours by mail, fax or email.
PROTOCOL: In-vitro analysis is performed using the SPF-290S Analyzer. A 1-cc syringe is used to dispense 100 or more dabs of your sample over a Transpore® tape substrate area (70.7 x 70.7 mm) at the rate of 2 µl/cm2, as specified by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration. Results are determined by averaging results of 18 scans of your sample in different locations on the Transpore® tape substrate. Each scan takes a transmittance measurement every 2nm from 290 to 400nm. These are compared to a reference scan at the same wavelength to compute the sample transmittance. The SPF-290S’ WinSPF software converts measurements to the well-known SPF values, Boots Star ratings (if requrested) or Australian TNUV values using these established calculation methods.
SENDING SAMPLES: Optometrics requests that 20 grams or more of your sample be submitted in a labeled container. Label should indicate the sample I.D., your company name, a contact name, telephone and fax numbers and email address. An order form or letter providing address should accompany your sample.
