Practical guide for optimizing sample preparation workflow in enviro labs
Discover Proven Strategies for Sample Prep Optimization in Environmental Labs
Inside the eBook
Environmental testing labs face constant pressure to deliver fast, accurate, and compliant results—often with limited time and resources. But did you know that optimizing your sample preparation workflows can have a game-changing impact on productivity, safety, and data quality?
At Milestone, we’ve gathered our industry expertise into a comprehensive free eBook:
“Optimizing Sample Preparation Workflows for Heavy Metals and Organic Pollutants in Environmental Labs”.
Inside, you’ll find practical strategies and innovative solutions to:
Streamline workflows for heavy metals and organic pollutants
Reduce sample preparation time and minimize manual handling
Enhance data reliability and regulatory compliance
Improve lab safety by reducing exposure to hazardous substances
Lower operational costs and achieve measurable ROI
The book introduces a step-by-step approach to optimizing workflows for heavy metals, beginning with direct mercury analysis using the DMA-80 evo, which requires no sample digestion. Compliant with EPA Method 7473, the system enables fast, safe, and reagent-free analysis, reducing costs by up to 90% compared to conventional CVAA methods.
For other heavy metals, Milestone recommends a “total workflow” approach:
This section outlines optimized workflows for analyzing organic pollutants, typically extracted with solvents. Traditional methods like Soxhlet and PFE are laborious, slow, and hazardous.
