Flow injection analysis (FIA) (CAT#: STEM-AC-0053-WXH)

Flow injection analysis (FIA) is an automated method in which a sample (analyte) is injected into a continuous flow of a carrier solution, which mixes with other flowing solutions (reagents) before reaching a detector. This technique is straightforward with very low sample and reagent consumption and high sampling frequencies. Flow injection analysis has a number of advantages. One of the most important is the shorter analysis time in comparison with chromatographic methods and the possibility of real-time continuous monitoring.

very useful in marine science for both organic and inorganic analytes in marine animal samples/seafood.
