Metering iodide in milk using IC +
inline dialysis
The Metrohm Inline Sample Preparation (MISP) for ion chromatography allows the determination of iodide in milk: the matrix of milk is removed by inline dialysis prior to sample injection

A compact ion chromatography system containing the 861 Compact IC and the 838 Advanced IC Dialysis Sample Processor MIC-7 Compact.
The 'MIC-7 Compact' is a Compact anion system with chemical suppression and dialysis The compact IC system with integrated dialysis.
For routine tasks and detection limits down to the ppb range, the combination of the 761 Compact IC with the 838 Advanced IC Dialysis Sample Processor is the optimal solution whenever contaminated samples have to be measured.
Dialysis is the method of choice whenever particles, oil droplets or coarse organic contaminants have to be kept away from the whole IC system.
The cellulose acetate dialysis membrane provides the necessary security without limiting the reproducibility and precision of the measurements.
As two valves are required for the dialysis, the 761 Compact IC is extended by one valve with the 812 Valve Unit.
The system is controlled by the IC Net software.
The separation column used is the Metrosep A Supp 5 - 150 separation column .
