Used & Refurbished Microwave Reactors and Digesters

Used and Refurbished Microwave Reactors and Digesters

Microwave reactors and digesters are laboratory instruments used in microwave digestion, which is the process of dissolving or breaking down samples for elemental analysis using high temperature and pressure. With the right equipment, the digestion process takes minutes to complete.

Explore Our Range of Used Microwave Digesters and Reactors

New Life Scientific offers a range of used microwave digesters and reactors for laboratory researchers looking to get one. But first, you must understand microwave digestion systems and techniques.

Understanding Digesters and Microwave Reactors and Their Benefits

Microwave digestion systems use a spectroscopic technique for the elemental analysis of solid samples. For this process to work, the sample must be in liquid form. The microwave digester prepares the samples and combines them with concentrated acids. The samples are then exposed to heat levels between 220 and 240°C.

These digestion systems have a built-in reaction chamber in the microwaves. The chamber serves as a common space for all samples and allows researchers to control the digestion conditions. Being in one area requires a smaller amount of acid, which helps save time and resources for labs working on small samples.

Microwave digesters and reactors have various uses in medicine, biology and chemistry. They also have beneficial applications in the agriculture, geochemical, petrochemical and plastics industries.

Choosing the Right Model for Your Application

You must be thorough when buying microwave digestion vessels and instruments. Opting for a used microwave digester and reactor is a good idea, as new instruments can get pricey. Check out the models from the industry's leading manufacturers:

• CEM Corporation: The CEM MARS Xpress 230/60 Accelerated Reaction Microwave Digestion Oven is ideal for preparing samples for various analyses, such as atomic absorption, gas or liquid chromatography, and inductively coupled plasma emission spectroscopy. This device features a programmable microcomputer for easier control and explosion-proof reaction vessels.

• INTAVIS (Bio-now): Their Bioanalytical Digest Pro MSi Automated Protein Digestion System works wonders in protein digestion and MALDI sample preparation. The instrument can process 96 samples in each run and digests in gel or solution.
