General description

Tenax® TA is a prepacked, stainless steel sampling tube that is fully compatible with the GERSTEL instrument. It employs a stainless steel screen at both inlet and outlet to keep the adsorbent beds secure during use.
We are committed to bringing you greener alternative products, which adhere to one or more of The 12 Principles of Greener Chemistry. Thermal desorption tubes are reusable at least 50 to 100 times, and reduces the usage of accessories like transfer vials, caps, and pipette tips, thus aligns with “Waste Prevention”. Also, these tubes eliminate the usage of toxic solvents like CS2 to extract the VOCs of interest, and thus aligns with “Safer Solvents and Auxiliaries” principle. Click here for more information.
