PFAS testing caps and vials
The green solution to laboratory wastewater sterilisation is black and white
Thanks to AstellBio’s new range of thermal Effl uent Decontamination Systems (EDSs), the need to add chemical disinfectants to discarded liquids and wastewater may now be over, for even the smallest laboratories. Clad in iconic black and white panel work, these miniaturised wastewater sterilising plants are making big strides towards greener waste management.
From the disposal of samples to the wash-down of equipment, the sterilisation of liquid waste is a daily occurrence within laboratories. What is more, with a rapidly expanding biotechnologies sector, the need to fi nd cleaner ways of sterilising liquid waste is of ever-growing importance.
MicroSolv Technology Corporation™ has launched an exceptional collection of autosampler vials and caps designed for PFAS testing.
For accuracy in LCMS/MS or GCMS analysis of these compounds, the sample vials and caps used should not contain any PFAS which includes PTFE.
MicroSolv™ Polypropylene Caps and Vials are manufactured from the purest silicone rubber and pure, virgin, medical grade polypropylene, instead of traditional PTFE making them excellent for this type of analyses and will instil confi dence in laboratories who are testing for PFAS.
The vials are available in 2mL, 300ul and 700ul formats and the ultra-pure, septa cap choices are single use and closed top.

Unlike with other methods, thermal sterilisation is effective when wastewater is opaque or contains solids. Yet this technology is not new; AstellBio thermal EDS have operated in businesses around the globe for decades, with each unit processing thousands of litres of wastewater daily. The change comes in scale. AstellBio’s new range of products, the AstellBio Sink, Micro EDS, and AstellBio Sink & Autoclave Combo, are the Lilliputian cousins of their industrial-sized counterparts, requiring only domestic-type electricity and water supplies.
The Micro EDS forms the heart of the range. Capable of sterilising 9L of <=BSL-3 wastewater every 45 minutes, the diminutive unit can be plumbed into the effl uent output of a wide range of appliances. The AstellBio Sink takes this concept further, providing a fi tted basin and automatic tap – allowing users to wash materials down the sink with the assurance wastewater will be sterilised before it is dispatched to the drain. Completing the series is the AstellBio Sink & Autoclave Combo, adding an Astell top-loading autoclave alongside the Sink, allowing instruments and solid waste to be sterilised simultaneously with the wastewater.
All three units are fi tted with casters for easy movement, feature a simple-to-use touchscreen controller, and can be fi tted with a wide array of options. More information online:
