Frontier Microplastics Calibration Standard-Low Set

Frontier Microplastics Calibration Standard Low Set is used to identify and quantify microplastics using Py-GC/MS. It allows the user to easily create calibration curves for quantification of microplastics. Two MP calibration standard sets with different diluents (SiO2 or CaCO3) are available.

Please Note: A valid Frontier Micro-Furnace Pyrolyzer serial number is required to process this order.

Both Calibration Standard Sets contain a few μg each of commonly used 12 polymers which are homogeneously dispersed with a solid diluent for easy weighing on semi-microbalances.

This “low set” has a polymer concentration of approximately one-tenth of the Microplastics Calibration Standard Set (PY1-4940). Making it suitable for quantitative analysis of trace microplastics samples.

Each Frontier Microplastics Calibration Standard-Low Set includes:

• 1 bottle of MPs-SiO2-L (1 g) – Low level microplastic calibration set for Method A, Diluent: SiO2, this can be used for reactive pyrolysis using tetramethylammonium hydroxide (TMAH) reagent
• 1 bottle of MPs-CaCO3-L (1 g) – Low level microplastic calibration set for Method B, Diluent: CaCO3
• 1 bottle of Diluent SiO2 (3 g) – SiO2
• 1 bottle of Diluent CaCO3 (3 g) – CaCO3
• 1 bottle of MPs-Quartz Wool (200 mg) – for preventing the scattering of powdered sample from a sample cup by putting some quartz wool on the sample in the cup
• 1x Micro Spatula 03 – Sampling tool for small amount of solid sample
