Bioaccumulation of harmful compounds is a long-term threat to human and animal health, particularly in the developing world, where regulations are less stringent. Contamination of the local environment by shale gas “fracking” sites must therefore be constantly evaluated to satisfy new regulations; when pollutants are detected, it is essential that the source is determined and apportioned to remedy the problem, while also preventing repeat offenses.
EnvirovisION offers advanced sample preparation techniques for exceptional levels of detection, ensuring that even low-level pollutants can be traced to their original source.
A powerful combination:
Elemental Analysis – Conversion of bulk materials to sample gases prior to isotope analysis.
Isotope Analysis – Intelligent analysis of sample gases from GC & EA inlets.
Gas Chromatography – Separation of volatile organics and real time conversion to sample gases.
EnvirovisION ENHANCEMENTS
- For complete confidence in your GC-IRMS analysis, add the Agilent 5977A mass selec-tive detector for simultaneous compound detection and isotope analysis, ideal for positive identification of pesticides or other contaminants in a complex chromatogram.
- Expand your capabilities by adding com-plementary bulk elemental and isotope analysis of contaminated soils, sediments or tissue samples.
- Ground water analysis can be performed with the vario LIQUID sample.
Minimal footprint
EnvirovisION is almost 50% smaller than any other commercial stable isotope analyzer on the market, providing sophisticated performance in a compact package.
Low cost of ownership
EnvirovisION provides a variety of cost-effective benefits, including instrument sleep/wake-up functions that help to reduce the consumption of resources.
Advanced data analysis
EnvirovisION offers a number of cutting-edge analytical capabilities for environmental forensics, including:
- 100V amplification for large dynamic range samples
- exceptional sensitivity for low-concentration analytes
- a market-leading furnace design, providing long-term robust sample analysis without reconditioning
- sophisticated stable isotope data processing software that represents the most powerful suite ever created for this application
