vario ISOTOPE cube is an improved version of vario EL cube for stable isotope analysis, especially in food, plant, and soil samples. For the first time, it makes possible coupling of an elemental analyzer and a mass spectrometer. Consequently, when coupled with the IsoPrime Isotope-Ratio Mass Spectrometer (IRMS), it provides continuous measurement of Carbon, Hydrogen, Nitrogen, and Sulfur (CHNS) isotope ratios for large weight and concentration range.
Featuring the patented technology of purge and trap chromatography and in-situ reduction of water to hydrogen/deuterium, ISOTOPE cube enables simultaneous analysis of CHNS or CNS down to single element using just one sample. The versatile analyzer takes elemental analyzes to the next level and improves considerably on the performance of both elemental analyzer and IRMS.
