Accurate and Precise Arsenic Speciation in Foods and Beverage with Superior Detection Limits
With its unrivalled sensitivity, the PlasmaQuant® MS Elite delivers the lowest detection limits of any ICP-MS when measuring both organic and inorganic species of arsenic in food and beverages. The high toxicity of inorganic arsenic means regular monitoring of food products is important. Various seafoods for example contain high levels of the less toxic organic arsenic species. Therefore, the dangers of arsenic depend not only on the total concentration, but also its chemical forms which vary in terms of toxicity and bioavailability. The use of arsenic based pesticides and fertilisers over the last century agriculture still contaminate soils today. Some regions are also affected by naturally-occurring inorganic arsenic present in groundwater.
The combination of HPLC and ICP-MS techniques is perfect for arsenic analysis. Complete peak separation of all species is achieved in under 9 minutes. While the separation of individual arsenic species can negatively influence detection limits – as the total arsenic signal is now split over multiple species – the higher sensitivity of the PlasmaQuant® MS Elite recovers lost signal allowing lower levels of detection to be reached. With the PlasmaQuant® MS Elite, a detection limit of <4 ng/L is routinely achieved for common Arsenic species found in rice flour and apple juice samples.

Fully Automated Dumas Nitrogen/Protein Analyser
Velp Scientifica presents the NDA Series Dumas Nitrogen/Protein Analyser, consisting in two extremely advanced models aimed to simplify routine operation and reduce operating costs to the minimum. Choose between NDA 701 and NDA 702, a unique dual carrier gas nitrogen and protein analyser.
Both the units use high-technology to optimise productivity. With the highest limits of detection and readability on the market and an RSD lower than 0.5% for EDTA, the user is assured of high precision results. Samples can be loaded in nearly 120 positions, using the same loading procedure whether solid, paste or liquid. Once loaded, the unit runs fully automatically offering exceptional reproducibility and comparability of results. The lowest detection limit of the market ensured, only 0.001 mg/N.
With the new NDA 702 Dual Carrier Gas Dumas N/Protein Analyser, Velp Scientifica takes a further step in enhancing accuracy and end user flexibility. Helium has been the carrier gas for elemental analysis for many years, whilst industry was demanding an alternative carrier gas to address application needs, availability and cost effectiveness. The Velp NDA 702 fulfils the industry’s needs by offering the optimum alternative carrier gas, Argon, which can be utilised seamlessly alongside Helium.
Switching from Helium to Argon or vice-versa with the Velp NDA 702 is truly quick, easy and safe: simply choose the gas, close one tap and open the other. No need to replace parts or upgrade software.
With the Velp NDA 702 absolute flexibility becomes the standard.
No need to decide in advance which carrier gas to use and exciting new features including the completely re-designed DUMASoft™ offering multi- lingual support, results at a glance without the need to create a report, or to name calibration curves. All of this together with the exclusive Velp TEMS™ technology for conspicuous savings in terms of Time, Energy, Money and Space and an unmatched new levels of LOD and accuracy that state an industry record.
Velp Scientifica NDA Series complies with all standards in the food and feed markets – AOAC, AACC, ASBC, OIV and ISO – making it the ideal choice for industrial and monitoring laboratories.
