Very nice instrument

 

Average Rating 5.0

Application Area:

Enviromental samples

Very nice instrument. Easy to use, accurate and reliable

Review Date: 12 Jun 2025 | Milestone

Easy to use, works well with environmental matrices, electrical issues, and delays in fixing the instrument.

 

Average Rating 4.0

Application Area:

Analysis of total mercury for lab services and academic research

So far the instrument is easy to use, requiring little sample preparation. It works well with soil, biota, and water samples that our laboratory has tested. The only issue is that it has experienced a couple of electrical problems, which have greatly delayed the lab's services. It also took a long time for Milestone to come and conduct the repairs.

Environment

This is our second DMA-80. The first one lasted us 25 years and was still working, but unfortunately we couldn't replace the lamp. However, our experience with the equipment led us to purchase a new one. It is a robust piece of equipment, with very low LOQ, very high reproducibility, and a very high measurement range. The results are very reliable and of high analytical quality. We have read two papers on the use of this equipment in thermal desorption and are exploring this possibility. It has helped us to produce dozens of papers in high-impact journals.

Water, wastewater, soil. Foods such as powdered milk.

I really apreciatte DMA-80. It's very easy to use and, best of all, allows you to analyze the original sample without the need for digestion. It can be used for a variety of sample matrices and is very stable over time. In addition, it can reach very low levels of mercury. I recommend it.

Great instrument!

 

Average Rating 5.0

Application Area:

Research (various fields)

The DMA was purchased almost 5 years ago and has been running ever since. It is a great instrument which is easy to uses, versatile, and has great precision with a low LOD. The support offered by milestone and analytix (UK distributor) is incredible, and we have had no issues with getting replacement parts, support when trying new methods, or the servicing. The only thing that is lacking a bit is the user interface, but since that does not detract from the usability of the instrument, I would not rate the DMA any lower for it. It would be great if there were more features that could be adapted, and if the methods could be altered more than currently possible (we are happy to provide direct feedback to the manufacturer for this or highlight changes we would see as beneficial).

I would buy the DMA 80 anytime

 

Average Rating 5.0

Application Area:

Mercury analysis from water and environment

I have been working on this equipment since 2019. The time to determine the mercury in a sample is relatively short, the calibration curve is stable for a long period of time 6-12 months. If you use small sample volumes, the amalgamator will last you a year, 400-500 samples.
