Specialty or proprietary equipment and accessories related to laboratory sample preparation

Microscopy and metallography sample preparation equipment is used for the preparation of samples for metallographic or microscopic inspection and analysis

Sample dryers are used to remove liquids from a sample through techniques such as freeze drying, spray drying, and evaporation

Laboratory filters are used to remove particulates from samples in laboratory-scale applications. They consist of a filter medium and housing or holder that constrains and supports the filter media in the sample’s path

Digesters are used to break samples down into their basic constituents for further analysis

Solid phase extraction (SPE) cartridges and discs are used to clean up a sample before using a chromatographic or other analytical method to quantify the amount of analyte(s) in the sample

Titration instruments are used to determine the concentration of dissolved substances. Titration is based on a complete chemical reaction between the specific substance, the analyte, and a reagent or titrant of known concentration that is added to the sample

Laboratory shakers and rotators are used to blend or agitate samples within flasks or tubes

Degassers are used to filter or remove gases from solvents and samples

Laboratory freeze dryers preserve samples by freezing the material and then allowing sublimation to occur. This water-removal process is also known as lyophilization

Laboratory mixers are used to mix, emulsify, homogenize, disintegrate and dissolve samples

Laboratory centrifuges are used to separate particles from a solution according to their size, shape, density, and viscosity of the medium and rotor speed.

Laboratory homogenizers are high-speed, high-shear mixers that reduce samples to uniformed-sized molecules through maceration, cutting, and blending. They are used to process liquids, slurries, or granular substances

Reactors are used to grow cells and contain reactions.

High performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) columns use a liquid mobile phase to separate the components of a mixture.
