Typically used by entomologists or zoologists, this especially adapted optical handheld refractometer fitted with a 45-80 Brix scale is often taken in to the field to measure nectar in flowers as part of deforestation studies as a sample volume of only 1 micro-litre is required to take a measurement. IP65 rated against moisture ingress.
