MGA-915MD ZEEMAN ATOMIC ABSORPTION SPECTROMETER WITH ELECTROTHERMAL ATOMIZATION

The MGA-915MD series is where sensitivity meets economy. Productive and easy-to-handle graphite furnace atomic absorption spectrometer.
Experience simplicity of complex samples analysis with unique High Frequency Zeeman background correction technology.

KEY TECHNOLOGIES
  • Zeeman High Frequency Polarization Modulation (ZHFPM) background correction
  • Accurate spectral interference correction even for complex sample matrices thanks to simultaneous measurement of total and background absorptions
  • Direct As and Se determination at ppb and sub-ppb levels without hydride generation technique is possible due to bright and stable electrodeless discharge lamps (EDL)
  • The stabilized temperature platform furnace (STPF) concept realized
  • Pseudo-double beam optical system compensates for drifts of various nature e.g. spectral lamps, electronics. No warm-up required
  • Cold Vapor / Hydride Generation technique available
INDUSTRIES

Graphite furnace atomic absorption spectroscopy (GFAAS) is an excellent solution for trace element analysis in various fields:

  • Environmental monitoring
  • Water treatment
  • Food and Beverages
  • Agriculture
  • Pharmaceutics and Life science
  • Medicine and Biochemistry
  • Forensics and Clinical research
  • Petrochemistry and Refineries
  • Process control and Material analysis
  • Science and Research

For laboratories with low-moderate sample throughput, GFAAS secures optimal combination of high selectivity, sensitivity and low-cost analysis.

HIGH ANALYTICAL PERFORMANCE
  • Complex samples with high salt and organic content injected to the furnace without pretreatment. Simple and direct analysis of beverages, biological fluids, sea water and brines possible
  • A number of elements for which EDLs are produced e.g. Sb, As, Bi, Cd, Pb, P, Se, Te, Tl, Sn and Zn, can be determined at lowest levels without pre-concentration and hydride generation technique
LOW-COST ANALYSIS
  • Standard graphite tubes (28 mm) of both Massman and L’vov type are available
  • The autosampler accommodates standard plastic vials and Eppendorf®-type tubes
