An elemental analyzer coupled with an IRMS enables the so-called Bulk Stable Isotope Analysis (BSIA). This refers to the measurement of the average isotopic composition of an entire sample, rather than of individual molecules.
ECS δFAST is the analyzer developed by NC Technologies for fast δ¹³C, δ¹⁵N, and δ³⁴S isotopic analysis without analytical compromises.
In fact, with the new fastMODULE device, we have not only drastically reduced analysis times, but also significantly improved the separation and shape of the individual peaks.
Thanks to the combined new features of ECS δFAST and COMAPCT IDmicro, we are able to offer a compact, fast, and easy-to-use EA–IRMS system.
