Columns for Miura GO-xEHT Systems
Dioxins & PCBs Purification Columns for Miura GO-xEHT Systems
The Miura GO-xEHT (GO-xHT) is a fully automatic sample preparation system for the analysis of Dioxins (DXNs) and Polychlorinated Biphenyls (PCBs), compounds considered Persistent Organic Pollutants (POPs). Find more details on this comprehensive Clean-up system here.
Features:
♦ High performance clean-up
4 columns
Heated purification and elution
→ better purification
→ faster elution
♦ User-friendly design
Easy to apply sample
Easy connections
Disposable parts
→ no washing
→ no cross-contamination
♦ Unique flow switching
♦ Perfect separation of PCBs and Dixons in one freaction each
Depending on the sample matrix and the analytes of interest, different column sets are available:
Composition of the Column Sets
(Standard Setup)
| Sample Injection | |
|---|---|
| 1 | Delute sample in hexane and apply onto column |
| Purification | |
|---|---|
| 2 | AgNO3 - Silica gel column - removal of sulphur compounds |
| 3 | H2SO4 - Silica gel column - hydrolysis of fats and removal of basic compounds |
| Concentration | |
|---|---|
| 4 | Carbon based column - retention of dioxins by structural interaction |
| 5 | Alumina based column (only needed for PCBs analysis) - retention of PCBs by polar interaction |
| Elution | |
|---|---|
| 6 | Dioxin Fraction |
| 7 | PCB Fraction |
All columns and tubings needed are included in each set
How it Works
- Dissolve the extracted sample in hexane and apply it to the column
The system performs automatically the following steps
- Clean-up
- Concentration
- Elution of PCBs fraction
- Elution of Dioxins fraction - Pick up the collected fractions
