A method of measuring rinse properties of a composition from a surface, the method includes providing a cosmetic treatment composition. The method also includes applying the cosmetic treatment composition to a surface. The method also includes rinsing the surface with a first amount of water after applying the cosmetic treatment composition to the surface. The method also includes collecting a portion of the first amount of water after rinsing the surface with the first amount of water. The method also includes measuring a first turbidity of the portion of the first amount of water after collecting the portion of the first amount of water.

The present invention relates to a method for measuring characteristics of particles in solution and to a device for performing the same, wherein said method comprises the steps of providing a vessel comprising a sample of said particles in solution, wherein the sample has preferably a volume between 0.1 μL and 15 μL, providing a monochromatic light source and a light detector, transmitting light from the monochromatic light source to the vessel comprising the sample, detecting light emitted from the vessel with the light detector, and determining characteristics of said particles in solution comprised in the sample based on a dynamic light scattering (DLS) measurement.

According to an embodiment of the disclosure, a device for measuring a turbidity of a solution containing fine particles comprises a laser module emitting a laser beam of a predetermined wavelength band, a coupler outputting the laser beam along a first laser path and a second laser path divided from each other, a probe outputting the laser beam output along the first laser path to a container containing the solution, a light receiving element receiving, through the first laser path, the laser beam reflected or scattered by the fine particles in the solution and detecting the received laser beam, and a controller calculating the turbidity based on a strength of the laser beam detected by the light receiving element.

Disposable, pre-sterilized, and pre-calibrated, pre-validated sensor components are provided. The sensor components interact with a sensor system having disposable fluid conduit or bioreactor bag and a reusable sensor assembly. The components can include an optical bench or inset optical component or module designed to be integrated within the disposable fluid conduit or bioreactor bag, which provides an optical light path through the conduit or bag. The sensors systems are designed to store sensor-specific information, such as calibration and production information, in a non-volatile memory chip on the disposable fluid conduit or bag and on the reusable sensor assembly. Methods for calibrating the sensor and for determining a target property of an unknown fluid are also disclosed. The devices, systems and methods relating to the sensor are suitable for and can be outfitted for turbidity sensing.
