SER 158 - Automatic Solvent Extractor
Solvent extraction with the SER 158 can be performed for extractable matter determination on a wide range of sample matrices either in food and non-food industries (such as pulp, paper, textile, chemical) and for sample preparation. The solid-liquid extraction process removes the soluble components from solids using a liquid solvent. The SER 158 works in accordance to international standards such as AOAC, ISO, EPA, APHA, UNI.…
