Product catalog summary
Introduction
Flow Injection for Atomic Spectroscopy (FIAS) enhances laboratory productivity and capabilities, particularly when used with PerkinElmer AA, ICP-OES, or ICP-MS systems. It automates sample preparation and delivery, significantly increasing efficiency.
Flow Injection Overview
Flow injection involves injecting small sample portions into a carrier solution stream, allowing for automated sample pre-treatment such as hydride generation. This process is fully automated in the FIAS systems, enabling up to 180 determinations per hour.
Benefits of Flow Injection
  • Automated hydride generation and amalgamation improve detection limits for specific elements.
  • Analyte preconcentration and matrix removal enhance detection limits in complex samples.
  • On-line addition of additives reduces sample preparation time.
  • Sample pipelining reduces washout times and improves stability for high-concentration samples.
Mercury and Hydride Analysis
FIAS systems provide exceptional analytical performance, particularly for mercury and hydride-forming elements. Detection limits are significantly lower compared to traditional methods, with ultratrace mercury detection achievable through amalgamation preconcentration.
FIAS-Furnace Coupling
Combining flow injection with graphite furnace AA enhances sensitivity and sample handling. This coupling improves detection limits by 100-fold or more and eliminates chemical and background interferences.
System Specifications
The FIAS 100/400 systems are automated flow injection systems compatible with various spectrometry techniques. They feature computer-controlled operation, stepper-motor driven pumps, and optional amalgamation accessories for mercury analysis.
Conclusion
PerkinElmer's FIAS systems offer a flexible and efficient solution for sample handling and delivery, enhancing the capabilities of AA, ICP-OES, and ICP-MS systems. They provide higher tolerance for complex matrices, faster washout times, and lower sample consumption, making them ideal for high-throughput laboratories.

Fully automatic flow injection for improved detection limits Hydride generation Flow injection (FI) fully automates mercury/hydride procedures, even for sequential multielement determinations. The FIAS 100 and FIAS 400 systems can perform up to 180 individual determinations per hour in the FI-MHS (Mercury Hydride System) operating mode. For fully automated analyses, an optional S10 autosampler can hold up to 270 samples and analyze them in any desired sequence. All that has to be done is to program the necessary parameters using either the WinLab32™ software for AA or ICP-OES detection or the...

Ultratrace mercury determinations using There are many options for measuring mercury - from direct measurement with other elements using a multielement technique such as ICP-OES or ICP-MS to a dedicated cold- vapor analysis after preconcentration for the ultimate detection limits. Table 2 summarizes the detection limits that can be expected for mercury, using various techniques with and without preconcentration. Amalgamation provides ultratrace Hg detection Mercury detection limits can be significantly improved using the automated amalgamation preconcentration accessory with the FIAS 100/400...

FIAS-furnace for GFAA hydride analysis Table 3. Detection limits for aqueous solutions using graphite furnace and FIAS-furnace coupling. Element Detection Limit (µg/L) Graphite Furnace* FIAS-furnace coupling Combining the benefits of flow injection with the excellent sensitivity of graphite furnace provides additional performance and sample-handling capability. Graphite furnace AA is one of the most sensitive techniques for trace metal determinations. However, with this technique, detection limits are constrained by the limited sample-volume capacity (typically 10 to 50 µL). This prevents the...

Increase your lab flexibility with FIAS for AA, ICPOES or ICP-MS Flow-injection analysis is ideally suited for samples containing high levels of dissolved solids. For example, saturated salt solutions or dissolved fusion mixtures can be directly analyzed for extended periods (Figures 5 and 6). Since the system is continuously rinsed with the carrier stream after each sample measurement, there is reduced danger of blocking the nebulizer or burner slot in AA or depositing material on ICP-MS cones. This maximizes instrument stability and reduces the time required to perform recalibration and maintenance....
