Learn how to achieve consistency in sample preparation to ensure low blank levels in trace metal determinationIn recent decades, significant strides have been made in enhancing the productivity, quality, and safety of the sample preparation processes, particularly focusing on the digestion step to improve efficiency. However, certain aspects of the sample preparation workflow still possess room for improvement, such as acid supply, reagent addition, vessel handling, and cleaning. In this study, we will explore how the implementation of Milestone easyFILL, an automated dosing system, can effectively overcome safety concerns and ensures consistency of result in sample preparation workflow for trace metal determination.

The easyFILL Automated Dosing Station frees the operator from reagent addition and dilution by automating these steps, with the additional benefits of reducing chemist's exposure to concentrated acids and ensuring consistency of the process. easyFILL is fully controlled by a touch screen terminal with customized software. For routine processes the operator simply recalls a stored method with the type and volume of reagents as well as the number of positions in use.
