Highly recommended for closed vessel digestion.
Rating: 4.3

  • Application Area:Analysis of minerals in animal feeds

"The milestone microwave digestor is easy to use. Digestion is fast and not messy. Cleaning of parts/ consumables is easy. It's low maintenance. My only concern is that after digestion, the digest is still colored. I was expecting that it will be clear. Nonetheless, the results/ recovery is still good in terms of passing the acceptance criteria."

Robust equipment but large preparations times
Rating: 3.3

  • Application Area:Analyze elemental impurities

"The product is very robust and offers high confidence in use. We have used HF applications and no problems have been found. The only drawback is the long time needed to prepare each of the vessels"
