CLS-1 ...for Closed-LoopStripping Analysis Trace level analysis of organics in water requires exacting tech niques and instrumentation. The Closed-Loop-Stripping technique can provide excel lent sensitivity and reproduo i ibility for many organic compounds. CLS com pliments purge and trap procedures by concen trating organics of lower volatility and higher molecular weight. If you are concerned with trace I organics analysis or raw or finished for environmental analysis, or flavors and fragrances of many types of samples, the Tekmar CLS-1 ! can satisfy your most exacting requirements.

From Martek*. . . the Model SCT
Let Martek monitor your soil conductivity and temperature for accurate soil salinity calculations. With the Model SCT Monitoring System, you can determine changes in salinity caused by seepage, irrigation, or other external influences. For your convenience, conductivity is corrected to 25°C, eliminating the need for conversion. Rugged in design and simple to operate, the Model SCT can be used in soil or water measurements. A vertical sensor is furnished with each system; optional sensors can be ordered for specialized applications. For further information, contact:
