Ducray Lenoir is also ISO 9001 , Version 2000 certified company. We are one amongst the first companies to be ISO certified in 1996.
We aim in providing the best solutions in science instrumentation and consumables in the following product range:
1. Life science: Chromatography / Elemental analysis / Molecular spectroscopy / Forensic
Chromatography systems separates, identifies, quantifies, and analyses natural substances, chemical mixtures or biological systems. They are elemental tools to analyze organic and inorganic matters in order to deliver fast, accurate evaluations of liquids, solids, powders and gases. Spectroscopy System determines the molecular composition of a wide variety of complex samples, including liquids, solids and gases. Forensic products are designed to assist in acquiring the evidence at the crime scenes as well as in the laboratory, to improve the quality of evidence and raise laboratory efficiency.
Key Technologies/ Applications: Forensic
2. Milestone Labstations are designed to provide many years of high performance and superior results, processing sample for a variety of applications. The systems and the accessories are developed based on application’s needs and the environment in which they will be used. Whatever your needs are, we have the experience to help you choose the right Milestone high quality product.
Reliable and professional sample preparation is as important as the analysis itself.
Microwave digestion has become the benchmark technology in preparing samples for AAS, ICP and ICP-MS. One of the most obvious reasons is the time saving associated with microwave technology when compared to heating blocks or other techniques.
Milestone makes microwave digestion faster, easier, safer, and ever affordable than before. Milestone revolutionary microwave instrumentations offers solutions able to:
Closed vessel digestion
Open vessel digestion
During trace and ultra-trace elemental analysis a number of external factors (such as reagent purity, cross contamination, etc.)
that can critically impact the quality of the results.
The inability to control the analytical blank (its chemical composition, its measurement, its effective control) is often the primary source of
error and the limiting factor for trace analysis.
Milestone has developed an innovative and complete line of systems and accessories for control and reduction of the analytical blank in ICP-MS, ICP-AES and GFAA. These instruments are dedicated to acid purification, ultratrace cleaning of vessels and reduction of contamination from vessel surface.
The hazards of mercury contamination make accurate mercury's detection extremely important. In fact, over the past century the amount of mercury released into the biosphere has dramatically increased.
Contamination sources include medical and hazardous waste incineration and industrial waste.
Milestone has developed a new instrument that exploits an innovative method which generates accurate and repeatable results in a quickly, simply, and waste-free manner, in substitution of traditional Cold Vapor methods.
The use of laboratory microwave ovens for organic extraction elevates sample preparation to the same level of sophistication as sample analysis. It is now possible to speed up extraction, reduce costs, boost effectiveness, consistency and simplicity of reactions.
Microwave ashing is a breakthrough for quality control and rapid sample preparation.
The determination of ash content, whether for process control or as a preparation method for other analytical techniques, is an important test performed daily in thousands of laboratories. While ashing is a relatively simple process, conventional muffle furnaces are inefficient in a number of respects which often leads to the process being tedious and time consuming. An alternative to muffle furnaces, electrical resistance furnaces, are typically costly to maintain due to high energy consumption. Additionally, both of these types of instruments have a tendency to diffuse heat making the surrounding laboratory environment uncomfortable due to heat and odors.
Milestone offers microwave ashing systems to meet the needs of your laboratory.
Microwave enhanced chemistry represents a fundamental step forward in the capabilities of synthetic chemists. Since its introduction, it has allowed to run reactions faster than ever before, with higher yields and reliably from milligrams to much larger quantities, without the need of reaction re-optimization.
Milestone provides appropriate solutions also for many undergraduate laboratories, providing students with an in-depth view on the new advancements of the modern synthesis.
