Optimization of the sample introduction system using the SC-FAST for Soils, results in a breakthrough in throughput and accuracy for soil extract analysis.
The SC-FAST is a complete sample introduction system for high speed soils analysis. With the SC-FAST-Soils a rack of 90 Mehlich-3 samples is analyzed in less than 11 minutes.

Sampling Procedure:
- Sample transferred from vial to 0.1 mL sample loop in 0.5 second then injected
- ICP read delay time 1 second
- During ICP read the sample probe moves above the next sample
- 11 elements determined in total analysis time of 7 seconds per sample.
- Over 500 samples and standards analyzed per hour!
