Microwave Digestion

By Drug Discovery Trends Editor | February 24, 2010

SPDThe Discover SP-D System with ActiVent Technology is the first major advancement in pressurized microwave digestion in 25 years. A typical digest can be processed in only 10 minutes, including cooldown. Discover SP-D features full pressure and temperature control for every sample. Utilize Pyrex or quartz vials with easy to use, disposable, snap-on caps. Teflon liners are also available. Typical sample sizes up to 0.5 g are comparable to much larger, 100-mL vessels due to the patent-pending ActiVent system, which safely vents any excess gaseous by-products without loss of analytes while allowing the digestion program to continue uninterrupted. Discover SP-D features individual sample programming so that samples with different parameters, methodologies, and even vial types can be run in any sequence. Automated sample decks are available in configurations for 24/48 (35-mL/10-mL) place, 36/72-place or 48/96-place. With its unique circular cavity and rugged design, Discover SP-D is the safest technology for microwave digestion. The system is compact and can be placed on a benchtop or in a fume hood. Pressurized microwave digestion has never been this easy or fast.
