Quality analysis starts with great sample preparation

Effective microwave digestion is the first and fundamental step for successful sample preparation for ICP-MS analysis as well as AA/ICP-OES.

If there is no confidence in initial sample preparation stage, then there can be no confidence in the results from subsequent analyses. Complete digestion is therefore essential for achieving accurate results in metal analysis. Since 1988, Milestone has provided microwave systems featured by unmatched throughput, safety and performance. These decades of experience have led to the development of the most intelligent yet powerful microwave digestion instruments to satisfy a wide array of application needs.

Blending microwave instrumentation technologies and effective analytical instruments we deliver unmatched sample preparation systems sufficiently increasing analysis quality and laboratory workflow. We produce dedicated sample preparation equipment for trace metal analysis. Our solutions ensure optimum results and performance in trace and ultra-trace metal analysis with lowest possible detection limit. Milestone focuses on importance of latest technologies for sample preparation for ICP analysis in modern elemental analysis lab and considers all parameters to offer solutions that maximize performance of microwave digestion for ICP analysis, as well as overall analytical capability of your laboratory. Discover our range of first-class microwave digestion solutions in our brochure. We strive for excellence in laboratory microwave systems offering our customers integrated solutions able to render lab activity easier, faster and safer.
