Practical guidance to improve the journey from sample to heavy metals analysis for environmental labs
Environmental laboratories face increasing pressure to process complex matrices for both inorganic and organic contaminants with higher efficiency, lower cost, and full regulatory compliance. This four-part webinar series provides a comprehensive overview of modern sample preparation solutions for heavy metals, mercury, and organic pollutants, including PFAS.
Through practical guidance and real-world examples, we will explore how advanced digestion, extraction, and direct analysis tools streamline workflows, minimize errors, and improve data quality. Participants will gain actionable strategies to enhance productivity and achieve more reliable environmental results across the entire sample-to-analysis journey.
Episode 2: Practical guidance to improve the journey from sample to heavy metals analysis for environmental labs
The quality and reliability of elemental analysis in environmental labs depend heavily on the steps performed before the sample reaches the analytical instrument. Choices related to acid purity, reagent dosing, filtration, dilution, and vessel cleaning all influence detection limits, blank levels, safety, and overall efficiency. This webinar provides practical, experience-driven recommendations to optimize each stage of the sampleto- analysis workflow. Attendees will learn how to minimize contamination, reduce manual operations, and adopt more cost-effective and productive approaches, ultimately improving data quality while lowering the total cost per sample.
