Evaluation of the High Dilution Capabilities of the SOLATek 72 Multi-Matrix Vial Autosampler
Today’s analytical laboratories are faced with increasing demands for greater efficiency and productivity. Automated sampling systems provide the greatest flexibility for labs that require a high turnover in sample analyses. The SOLATek 72™ Multi-Matrix Vial Autosampler automates the purge and trap analysis of water, wastewater, and soil samples in accordance with current USEPA methods for the analysis of volatile organic compounds (VOCs).
One of the unique features of the SOLATek 72 is the ability to program automatic dilutions for water samples as low as 1:250. As a result, highly concentrated samples can be diluted and analyzed with no manual intervention.
In this paper, the dilution capabilities of the SOLATek 72 will be explored. Specifically, the data will show that calibration curves can be automatically generated from a single high-concentration VOC standard. Results will be presented for different purge vessel sample volumes.
