Building on 20 years of excellence and leadership in the analysis of trace organic chemicals, Markes International has introduced Centri® – a breakthrough in sample automation and concentration for GC–MS.
Centri is a multi-mode platform that combines market-leading robotics and cryogen-free analyte-trapping technologies to reliably automate sampling, pre-concentration and injection of VOCs and SVOCs, giving enhanced throughput and performance for several popular sample introduction modes:
Analyte flows from all sampling modes can be concentrated on a sorbent-packed, cryogen-free focusing trap, which greatly enhances sensitivity and allows selective purging of interferents such as water and solvents.
In all modes, samples can be split and re-collected onto a clean sorbent tube, which offers numerous benefits, including greater sample security and the ability to carry out repeat analyses of a single sample.
