RFIC-ESP^™ systems enable a range of automated sample preparation techniques which utilize proprietary electrolytic devices to provide reduced cost and higher value analyses.

RFIC-ESP devices and techniques can be used for removing cations from an anion sample before analysis by using a Dionex CR-TC device, or neutralizing a strongly acidic or basic solution—25% phosphoric acid or  sodium hydroxide solutions, for example—with an AutoNeutralization^™ device. A new Electrolytic Water Purifier is available which provides water of extremely high purity (backgrounds below sub ng/L levels are possible) for use in trace-level analytical work where use of a concentrator column is necessary.

RFIC-ESP Systems Provide Several Advantages:

• Automated techniques are highly reproducible, instrument-to-instrument and lab-to-lab
• Automated techniques are not prone to human error and inconsistencies, as are manual methods
• Reduced manual operation results in reduced labor costs and sample processing time
• No sample loading pump is necessary, resulting in reduced system costs
• Ultra low backgrounds from online electrolytic water purification, permit routine ng/L level trace analysis
• Automated purification, concentration, and calibrations all reduce labor costs and improve result quality
