Markes International: The Leading Provider of Thermal Desorption and Sample Preparation Solutions for Gas Chromatography
Markes International is a world-renowned company that specializes in providing innovative solutions for thermal desorption, solid-phase microextraction (SPME), and other sample preparation techniques used in gas chromatography. With over 20 years of experience in the field, Markes has established itself as a trusted partner for scientists and researchers across various industries who require accurate and reliable analysis of organic compounds.
At Markes, we understand the importance of sample preparation in achieving high-quality results. Our products are designed to help our customers overcome the challenges associated with analyzing volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and semi-volatile organic compounds (SVOCs) present in complex matrices such as air, water, soil, food, and consumer products. We offer a wide range of instruments, accessories, consumables, software tools, and services that cater to different applications and requirements.
One of our flagship products is the UNITY-xr™ thermal desorber which enables automated extraction of VOCs from samples using sorbent tubes or canisters followed by injection into a gas chromatograph (GC). The UNITY-xr™ offers unparalleled sensitivity with detection limits down to parts-per-trillion levels. It also features advanced software capabilities such as method optimization tools that allow users to fine-tune their methods based on specific analytes or matrices.
Another key product line is our SPME fibers which provide an efficient way to extract VOCs from liquid or headspace samples without using solvents or other chemicals. Our SPME fibers are available in different coatings such as polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS), divinylbenzene/carboxen/polydimethylsiloxane (DVB/CAR/PDMS), polyacrylate (PA), etc., depending on the polarity and volatility of target analytes. We also offer SPME holders that fit most GC inlet systems for easy installation.
In addition to these core products, Markes offers various accessories such as thermal desorption tubes/canisters/liners/traps/filters/valves/connectors/adapters/crimpers/de-crimpers/syringes/needles/gauges/controllers/power supplies/cables/software licenses/manuals/training courses/calibration standards/maintenance kits/spare parts/etc., all designed to enhance the performance and versatility of our instruments.
