Densitometry is an established technique used in most biological research laboratories. Established techniques are often assumed to be stable and therefore not subject to advancement by the application of newer technology. However, when new technology is applied to an established technique, great advances can suddenly occur. Using the latest in laser optics design, semiconductor technology and state-of-the-art software implementation, Molecular Dynamics has developed and recently introduced a new Personal Densitometer SI that has performance capabilities considered impossible only a few years ago. In addition, the entire system can be priced lower than was previously possible.
密度测定法是大多数生物研究实验室都在使用的一项成熟技术。人们通常认为成熟技术是稳定的，因此不会因应用更新的技术而取得进展。然而，当新技术应用于一项成熟技术时，往往会突然取得巨大进展。利用最新的激光光学设计、半导体技术和最先进的软件实现，分子动力学公司已经开发并于近期推出了一款新型个人密度计SI，其性能在几年前还被认为是不可能实现的。此外，整个系统的价格也能比以前更低。
