  • Silver nitrate impregnated silica column
  • Sulphuric acid impregnated silica column

  • Carbon/florisil concentration column
  • Tubing set
Column set 18mm

Depending on the nature of samples and desired column set capacity we provide the following types of column sets

Quality Control

Miura Co. Ltd. in Japan is an ISO 17025 accredited organization having a comprehensive quality system in place assuring constant commitment to excellence. After production of new column set batches, they are tested in accordance with strict internal quality control protocol:

  • Out of every 150 newly produced columns one set is examined by QC-dept.
  • The recovery rates of all PCDD/Fs and PCBs must be> 70%
  • The blank values PCDD / Fs must be <0.5 pg TEQ / column set
  • The blank DL-PCBs must be <0.05 pg TEQ / column set

Only if the above requirements are met, a batch passes Miura quality control with a column set certificate of quality.
These certificates contain a report of blank and recovery tests performed and provides corresponding chromatograms.
Column set certificates of quality are provided with every delivery of column sets and can be viewed and downloaded in the download section
