Explore →Industry questions.
How should a laboratory choose between handheld and benchtop XRF?
Consider sample type, element range, required precision, preparation, throughput, field use, geometry, vacuum or atmosphere needs, reporting, and calibration availability.
What should be reviewed before selecting a TOC analyzer?
Review water or sample type, expected range, solids, salts, acids, oxidation requirement, sample volume, calibration, quality-control procedures, reporting, and maintenance capability.
Can Blue Dragon assist with method development?
Blue Dragon can review the application, configuration, reference materials, workflow, training, and verification approach. Final method validation remains the responsibility of the laboratory and its quality system.
Are these instruments suitable for regulated reporting?
Suitability depends on the specific instrument configuration, validated method, calibration, documentation, user controls, quality procedures, and applicable regulatory or accreditation requirements.
