Optimized Combustion for lower-level Nitrogen Samples in Foods

Nitrogen content in food materials is necessary to measure when determining the total protein content. Performing this measurement using classical «wet chemistry» can be slow and tedious. The combustion-based Dumas method significantly increases laboratory productivity; when the sample has a low-level of nitrogen, however, it poses unique challenges.

Hardness Tester Verification for ASTM

We routinely get questions about how often hardness testers need to be verified with test blocks by users. ASTM provides guidance in E 18 (Rockwell) and E 92 (Vickers and Knoop), Table A1.1, but the two standards use different terminology and have different requirements. Learn about them here!

Why Limit Your Analysis with MS/MS?

In your application work, you need the power to analyze even the most complex samples and our Pegasus BT 4D is the solution. Check out our video from this year’s Pittcon tradeshow, where Separation Science Product Manager, Lorne Fell PhD, explains its benefits.

How to Maximize Your Moisture Determination

We’re pleased to introduce our new thermogravimetric moisture determinator—the TGM800! The TGM800, provides a high precision, automated solution, which utilizes a direct method for replacing the slow, labor intensive, traditional loss-on-drying method analytical techniques.
