The 3010B allows a laboratory to undertake lead in blood analyses with a rapid turn-around time of only 90 seconds per sample.
Unlike competitive technologies, that require special laboratory installations, the 3010B operates without a fumehood, gases, or flames.
The low running costs of the 3010B enables a laboratory to generate revenue while providing a needed service for the community.
The new system uses low cost, trace metal-free pre-packaged reagent kits including chemical pretreatment reagents, calibrators, controls, and performance verification mixtures.
The unique Metexchange pretreatment reagent eliminates the necessity of performing acid digestion.
Reagents come premeasured in easy to use snap cap vials.
All reagents are manufactured and available from ESA Backed by numerous proficiency studies the results from the model 3010B lead analyser shows excellent correlation with already accepted graphite furnace methodologies.
