Easy to use, but has several limitations
Testing laboratory
The device is relatively easy to use, but it has several limitations. For example, the temperature monitoring thermometer (ATC) is often difficult to position. Additionally, messages appear regarding the temperature, without clarifying whether the cause is the ATC or another component. The ATC wears out relatively quickly, increasing operating costs. The vessels are sealed with a special key, whereas it would be more practical to seal them by hand. We have encountered incidents of explosions in the samples, without being able to identify the cause. Problems have also occurred in some electronic parts of the device. Although there is a cookbook with the digestion conditions, these conditions are often repeated between samples, causing confusion.

Practical and friendly
Soils, waters, and foliars/ Suelos, aguas y foliares
The equipment is very user friendly, maybe consider that the rotor is dual to work with different pressures and the applicability of the methods is higher.

Ethos Easy system is a solid investment
Toxicology, Environment
The Ethos Easy digestion system is a highly efficient, safe, and easy-to-use solution for sample mineralization. It offers fast digestion, high reproducibility, and robust safety features, making it an excellent choice for analytical laboratories. If you're looking for a reliable microwave digestion system to improve your sample preparation process, ETHOS is a solid investment. Compared to conventional digestion methods, the ETHOS system significantly reduces digestion times while allowing for simultaneous processing of multiple samples. This enhances productivity, particularly in high-throughput laboratories. Safety is a critical factor in sample preparation, and the ETHOS system excels in this area. It includes high-pressure-resistant vessels, temperature and pressure monitoring, and automated safety mechanisms to prevent over-pressurization. These features ensure both operator protection and sample integrity.

Reliable equipment, fantastic customer support
Research and teaching
The equipment is very easy to operate, and the digestion process is amazingly effective. First-time users (students during laboratory classes) are always so impressed! I also love the webinars because they are very informative and present practical aspects. The methods library, and the customer support in general, are also great. I feel like I am a part of the family, and will always get help or advice when needed. It is truly a pleasure to have this equipment in my lab!

Excellent equipment, functional and practical
Analysis of food, soil and environmental samples
The equipment is very user-friendly, also compatible with other rotors or accessories that expand our range of services. It should be noted that two springs arrived that are not compatible with the tubes that have a slope.

Very good instrument!
Food safety
The instrument works perfectly and effectively. We have only one issue with thermocouple. We change it very often, and it is an expensive consumable!

Microwave digestion is the first important step for a successful analysis. The new Milestone ETHOS UP is equipped with the most advanced yet easy to use reaction sensors for complete quality control of the digestion conditions. In combination with our ‘vent-and-reseal’ vessel technology, the sensors ensure complete and safe digestions without any loss of volatile compounds. Three completely new rotors offering high pressure, high sample throughput and high productivity are available for the ETHOS UP. The SK-15 is a high-pressure and high-temperature rotor with a capacity of up to 15 PTFE-TFM vessels of 100 mL and suitable for all applications.The MAXI-44, featuring up to 44 PTFE-TFM vessels of 100 ml, perfectly matches these requirements, providing high productivity and suitable for a wide range of samples including environmental and all organics. The MAXI-24 High Performance rotor doubles pressure limits and improves capacity, increasing volumes of sample and a wide variety of matrices within a single rotor-based platform. Quick-assembly vessels are closed with a simple hand-tightening, improving your daily productivity.
