How Envirotest, Inc. optimized lab efficiencies with Milestone's Ethos X. |
|
The Challenge |
|
To stay competitive in today’s market, our laboratory needs to provide a fast turnaround time (TAT) while minimizing our costs. Many of the samples we analyze are soils and sludges for the determination of semi-volatiles (BNA's), polychlorinated biphenyl (PCB’s), pesticides (OCP’s and OPP’s) and diesel range organics (DRO). To satisfy multiple customers and tests, we need a system that offers us flexibility, while saving us time and solvents. |

The Solution |
|
The Milestone’s Ethos X microwave system with the FastEX-24 rotor is a solution to our sample preparation needs. Its ease of use, practically no learning curve, less solvent usage, disposable large volume glass vials and high sample throughput reduces overall costs and time. In addition to providing accurate and reproducible results, the advanced technology gives us the ability to process higher sample weights resulting in lower detection limits. |
