  • Page 6 Calibration It is considered good laboratory practice to calibrate this refractometer using the liquids calibration procedure on a daily basis. Listed below also is a solids calibration procedure that can be performed occasionally if desired or as a part of your organization’s SOP. Liquid Calibration 1.
  • Page 7 Measuring Liquids To find the refractive index or Brix value of any transparent or translucent liquid, the steps are similar to the calibration procedure. 1. Place 2-3 drops of the sample liquid on the surface of the primary prism. 2. Close and lock the secondary prism. Be sure the liquid covers the prism surface completely, without any gaps or bubbles.
