Elementar

The elemental composition of a material determines its properties. Elemental analysis is therefore essential for the characterization and quality control of materials that need to meet certain requirements.

Elementar’s user-friendly inductar series using the high-temperature combustion method to determine elemental concentrations of carbon, sulfur, oxygen, nitrogen, and hydrogen is the ideal solution for R&D, routine, and high-throughput laboratories.

The determination of the total protein content is an essential tool for quality control and protein declaration according to international labeling laws in the food & feed industry and research facilities. Since the protein content can directly correspond to product properties, highly precise, matrix-independent protein analyses are required in all application areas.

Our N/protein analyzers use the high-temperature combustion method according to Dumas, which has clear advantages over Kjeldahl regarding laboratory safety, sample throughput, labor time, amount of chemical waste and thus cost-per-analysis.

Carbon, hydrogen, nitrogen, oxygen and sulfur are the basic elements of living nature. Their quantitative determination in the most versatile combinations of substances is the origin and essence of the Elementar product portfolio.

Stable isotope ratio mass spectrometry (IRMS) is a useful technique with a broad range of applications. This relatively simple, yet amazingly powerful technology brings ever deeper understanding to areas from paleoclimate studies to police forensics, archaeology to aquatic ecosystems, sports doping to soil science and many stops in-between. With such diverse applications areas, we support a complete portfolio of equipment to support you with your research, no matter which application you are focused on.

Our customers pursue a diverse range of applications and so each customer has a unique set of requirements for their hardware. However, no matter what their application, all systems have a common structure which can be used to tailor your specific requirements.

For over 30 years, Elementar has been the German pioneer in high temperature TOC analysis. Elementar’s high temperature combustion method to measure organic contaminations provides a multitude of advantages compared to other methods. It is optimized to deal with compounds hard to oxidize, such as humic acid or other rather persistent compounds. This always guarantees full recovery of every organic component and an outstanding precision and accuracy.
