Freezing point depression osmometers are the industry-preferred solution across clinical, biotechnology and pharmaceutical laboratories. Due to their proven accuracy and reliability across diverse sample types, they are a widely trusted and referenced method for osmolality testing. 

Freezing point depression is a phenomenon where a liquid’s (solvent) freezing point is lowered when a solute is dissolved in it. This effect is measured by freezing point depression osmometers to determine osmolality.
