Can Automation Help Me to Achieve My Sustainability Goals?

This event is now available on demand.

Event Overview:
 
As an analytical chemist, you are faced with a myriad of challenges including the need for increased throughput, dealing with increasingly complex samples, meeting ever more stringent analytical performance requirements, and improving the sustainability of your analyses. Automation and integration of your sample preparation and analysis workflows can achieve all these goals, but making the transition from manual sample preparation and analysis to automated and scaled down approaches can be daunting. Invest some time in learning how automation and integration of sample preparation and analysis can help you achieve higher sample throughput, improve sensitivity and reproducibility, solve complex sample preparation problems, and reduce environmental impact.

Key Learning Objectives:
  • Understand which types of analysis can be automated.
  • Reduce the fear factors for adopting automation into your workflow.
  • Learn the vast number of automated sample preparation and instrumental analysis introduction systems available to you.
  • Learn how automation can help achieve higher sample throughput, improve sensitivity, and reproducibility.
Who Should Attend:
  • Anyone who feels that automation ‘is not for me’.
  • Analytical chemists who believe that automation is a threat to their livelihood.
  • Anyone who is open minded to realizing the benefits of automation.
  • Those who wish to optimize the accuracy and reproducibility of their analysis.
  • Anyone who is bored with routine sample preparation.
