Accelerated FIA

FIAlab introduces a new revolutionary Accelerated FIA manifold for the FIAlab-2500 system.     Many analytes can now be measured at 10 seconds per sample.

Advantages (for faster reacting assays e.g., phosphate, nitrite, chloride) include:

10 seconds per sample throughput.
1/4th the reagent consumption of standard FIA.
peristaltic pump tubing lifetime extended by a factor of 2 to 4.

The manifold, mixing coils, and flowcell volume are miniaturized without loss of required mixing and heating.  This allows increased throughput while at the same time using a much lower pump speed.

Fast FIA is a new approach to Flow Injection Analysis, ideally suited for the soil and agricultural laboratories with large throughput requirements and mid to high range sample concentrations (e.g., > 0.01 PPM, see tables, below).  This manifold can save your laboratory both money and time.  


Phosphate at 10 seconds per sample with the Fast FIA manifold - concentration ranges 1.25, 2.5, 5 PPM

Example Assays (note, higher and lower range methods are available, please inquire):

High Range (short flowcell)

Assay Typical Throughput Concentration Range
Phosphate 360 samples/hour 0.1 to 20 mg (N)/L
Nitrite 360 samples/hour 0.02 to 50 mg (N)/L
Nitrate  240 samples/hour 0.02 to 50 mg (N)/L

 

Mid Range (long flowcell)

Assay Typical Throughput Concentration Range
Phosphate 240 samples/hour 0.01 to 2 mg (N)/L
Nitrite 240 samples/hour 0.002 to 2 mg (N)/L
Nitrate  180 samples/hour 0.002 to 2 mg (N)/L
