balance in the culture system.
The TOC-L Series instruments can be used to conduct
measurements using very small volumes of sample in
the range of 10 to 20 mL, making it suitable for
laboratory-scale studies.

* The TNM-L Total Nitrogen Unit option is required for nitrogen (TN)
measurement. In addition, filtering and centrifugal separation, etc.
are required for separate measurement of samples in the dissolved
state and suspended state.
