MAP-100 Automatic Microplastics Pretreatment Unit

The World’s First Automated Extraction and Recovery Process for Microplastics Analysis

The MAP-100 automatic microplastics pretreatment unit is the first in the world to automate the process of extracting and collecting microplastics in oceans, rivers, lakes, and other water in the environment. To accurately analyze microplastics in aqueous samples, an essential step is to isolate the particles from other components in the sample. The MAP-100 automates acid treatment and density separation processes, as well as the collection of the particles in the sample, resulting in a more efficient, safer experience for analysts. The MAP-100 automates the typical steps needed to isolate microplastics. This improves the reproducibility of the analytical workflow, enables lab technicians to focus on other tasks, and makes handling of reagents safer.

ICPMS-2040/2050 Series ICP Mass Spectrometers

An Era Without Compromise

The ICPMS-2040 series and ICPMS-2050 series are inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometers (ICP-MS) for qualitatively and quantitatively analyzing inorganic elements. The ICPMS-2040/2050 achieve high-sensitivity measurements with less environmental load due to reduced argon gas consumption during measurements.
The ICPMS-2040 is the standard model whereas the ICPMS-2050 offers higher sensitivity. The ICPMS-2050 achieves superior sensitivity measurements for specific elements through a new mechanism for removing unnecessary ions. Additionally, both products provide approximately twice the sensitivity of conventional models through the use of a uniquely designed plasma torch. They also provide for a more efficient workflow by incorporating a wide variety of functions to support users, such as a function to shorten the rinse time, and field-specific measurement conditions that are provided as standard. 

• Exceptional yet Eco Friendly
• High Throughput with No Additional Cost
• Minimal Operation Required
