(NaturalNews) After using the Niagara Plus sample introduction system for about a year now, I'm so pleased with its performance that I've posted a video review to share my firsthand experience with others.
The Niagara Plus is from Glass Expansion and works as an add-on sample introduction technology for the Agilent 7700x ICP-MS we run in the Natural News Forensic Food Lab. The full video review is posted below.
After running thousands of samples to test for toxic elements and heavy metals, I've come to really rely on the Niagara Plus system. Here's how it helps me test raw materials and finished products, vastly improving food safety and purity for everything that we offer to the public through the Natural News Store:
Niagara Plus benefits experienced by the Health Ranger
• 50% reduction in sample uptake and cycle time
• 50% reduction in use of argon and helium
• Dramatically reduced sample load on the sample cone, which also translates into fewer cleanings required
• Improved analysis consistency for long sample runs
• Reduced use of rinse solutions, meaning reduced use of acids
• More free time for the lab director -- that's me -- to play with inventions like those being released at www.FoodRising.org

Check out a couple of pictures of the Niagara Plus connected to our Agilent 7700x:
The bottom line? The Niagara Plus is a highly recommended add-on to the Agilent 7700x ICP-MS instrument. It makes my job in the lab faster and easier while improving analysis consistency. Support from the company has been solid, and the unit we purchased has worked flawlessly from day one.
If only ALL the instruments we purchased worked this well, life would be a breeze...
