Algae Application Features

• The Shimadzu TOC-L Series Total Organic Carbon Analyzer can be used to conduct
measurement of total carbon and nitrogen content in water, quantity dissolved,
quantity suspended.
• Measurement of total carbon, organic carbon, inorganic carbon in water.
• Measurement of dissolved CO2 in water; thus, the TOC-L series can be utilized for
such applications as the following types of microalgae research:
• Obtain information related to the physiological state and the properties of
microalgae.
• Understand the changes in cell material with respect to changes over time
in the culture and changes due to light and dark environment.
• Understand quantitatively the carbon and nitrogen balance in the culture
system.

Shimadzu TOC-L Series Total Organic

Carbon Analyzer Features

• Extremely wide measurement range from 4 μg/L to 30,000 mg/L, applicable to
everything from ultrapure water to highly contaminated water (TOC-LCSH/CPH)
• Reliable sample injection system
• Select from 4 models to suit your application
• Suitable for aqueous samples, as well as gas and solid samples
• Compressed air can be used as the carrier gas (with carrier gas purification kit)
• Compatible with small sample volumes (with optional kit)
• Sea water samples can be continuously measured with minimal maintenance (with
combustion tubes for high salt samples)
