Sampling Kit
On-site sampling for later analysis through GC/MS or TD/GC/MS.
Sampling Kit was developed in case of chemical accidents or fires where there was a release of chemicals, it is necessary to put appropriate analytical technologies in place as soon as possible in order to analyze the released substances.
Sampling Kit brings together various techniques and accessories for sampling and the preparation of samples, whether they are in the gas phase (air), solid phase (earth, sand, other solids) or liquid phase (water), so that they can be analyzed through a TD-GC/MS.
The instruction manual describes step by step, in a very simple way, how each method should be performed, making it easy to use in stressful situations.
Sampling Kit application áreas
- Used by fire brigades and other first responder teams after accidents
- Can be used in chemical industries
- On-site sampling possible
Sampling and Sample Preparation Kit: Accurate and quick preparation for GC/MS analysis. This chemical sample preparation kit is specifically designed for the use by first responders and safety operators. With analytical work – the step of sampling and also the sample preparation are the most important ones to achieve correct results. The sampling procedures are easy, quick and fail safe. Step by step procedures lead to a sample that can be analyzed by Thermal Desorption-gc/MS and provide correct results.
