Title:
IMMERSION PROBE AND CONTROL SYSTEM
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2020/240187
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
A method for reducing or preventing fouling on an immersion probe (100) in a crystallisation process is provided, comprising heating a transmissive element of the probe through which energy can be provided to and/or from a sample to monitor the sample and controlling said heating to heat the transmissive element to a temperature that is higher than the temperature of a sample medium (105) in which a portion of the probe (100) that comprises the transmissive element is immersed. Immersion probes (100) for monitoring crystallisation processes methods of retrofitting immersion probes (100) and methods for obtaining and processing images from immersion probes (100) are also provided.
