Blood Alchohol Analysis

Blood alcohol analysis is performed using a Gas Chromatograph (GC), equipped for head space sampling. The blood samples are diluted with an internal standard and loaded into 20mL head space vials. The samples are run on the GC and quantitated using a standard curve. The results are validated using a single point injection before and after the unknown sample.

The ML500 is used to create standards and prepare sample dilutions for Blood Alcohol Analysis. The following key features make the ML500 ideal for this application:

A borosilicate glass and PTFE fluid path to minimize sample carryover
Stored methods to eliminate the chance for operator error
A logging feature in the software to record all pump operations
Small volume accuracy to reduce wasted buffer associated with volumetric glassware

Controller Options:

Basic A Series Controller - Economical option with limited functionality.
Advanced B Series Controller - Advanced controller with method storage and custom method capabilities
PC Controlled System - The ML500 is controlled with software written for the PC. This option provides the most programming options but requires a tethered PC. The C series ML500’s do not come with any accessories. The blood alcohol application requires the purchase of a ML531 or ML560 and the diluter valve and probe package as well as a sample and reagent syringe. The part number for the valve and probe package is DILPKG.
