Coping with the daily challenges of routine water analysis

Analysing different types of water samples on a regular basis can present several challenges. The lab team must carry out all required tests quickly, whilst also delivering reliable results. This is hard when sample preparation is tedious and error-prone, especially when it’s carried out daily for hundreds of samples.

Additionally, with several analysts carrying out sample analysis any results will differ as each lab member treats their samples differently. More analysts working on routine samples introduces more bias, which is seen in the variability between results.

Automation is key in dealing with hundreds of samples and their accompanying obstacles. The goal is to automate the routine application process, including sample preparation and the combination of different techniques within one system to ease the workload.

Whether you’re interested in determining a specific parameter or several, an automated system such as OMNIS from Metrohm can be tailored to your needs and requirements.
