About us
Milestone vision is to help chemists by providing the most technologically advanced microwave instrumentation for research and quality control. Milestone has been active since 1988 in the field of advanced microwave sample preparation. Franco Visinoni, the founder and CEO of Milestone Corp. (Italy), is the “chief dreamer” of the society, which is based on continuous innovation and technological improvement. In 1988 Franco Visinoni, who has an analytical chemistry background, conceived a microwave unit voted to excellence: MLS-1200 Standard. It could extremely reduce the sample preparation time thus offering quality and standardization of results. This is only the beginning step of a long and fruitful growing path. Milestone has now over thirty patents and more than 20.000 instruments installed worldwide covering large and small research institutions, as well as universities and industrial laboratories. It is the acknowledged industry leader in microwave technology. Milestone commitment is to consistently provide the scientific and industrial communities with the most effective, safest, and highest quality instrumentation for chemical applications. The excellent support of the skilled Milestone Application Team through all these years has highly contributed to the success of the Milestone instruments and of the company. All systems are produced, assembled and checked by Milestone Production Department according to ISO procedures. Milestone is operative all over the world through a network of very reliable partners; USA headquarters are located in Shelton, Connecticut. The presence of Milestone in Japan is assured by Milestone General KK, near Tokyo, and in Korea by Milestone Korea, located in Seoul. All these branches have sales and technical assistance departments, as well as applications laboratories supporting our customers. Besides this, Milestone is present through over 70 exclusive distributors, who guarantee everywhere high standards of quality.

🌎 #References 𝗗𝗶𝗿𝗲𝗰𝘁 𝗺𝗲𝗿𝗰𝘂𝗿𝘆 𝗮𝗻𝗮𝗹𝘆𝘀𝗶𝘀 is the state-of-the-art technology to determine total mercury content in environmental samples. Requiring 𝗻𝗼 𝘀𝗮𝗺𝗽𝗹𝗲 𝗽𝗿𝗲𝗽𝗮𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 and delivering results in as little as 𝘀𝗶𝘅 (𝟲) 𝗺𝗶𝗻𝘂𝘁𝗲𝘀 per sample, it is significantly faster than traditional wet chemistry techniques. Thanks Jorge H Pedrobom and Nova Analítica Ltda for this success.
Last week I had the opportunity to be in the middle of the #Amazon #Rainforest at the Instituto Mamirauá to install a Milestone - Helping Chemists DMA80 evo. The Mamirauá institute is located within the Mamirauá #Sustainable Development Reserve, which covers 1,124,000 hectares (the largest forest reserve in Brazil). Within this #forest reserve, it is estimated that there are 177 communities and 11,532 residents who live sustainably and extractively. For many people the illegal #gold exploration in the Amazon rainforest is not new. The #Mercury used with amalgam during the gold exploration stage can contaminate #water, #soil, #fish and consequently people living at Mamirauá reserve. See the CNN report information on the topic through the link (https://lnkd.in/eqbfpUsa). Thus, the Mamiruá institute aims to use the Milestone #DMA80evo to set up a network to monitor merury concentration levels in samples of fish, mammals, invertebrates, water, soil, sediment, fur and blood from reserve residents people. Thank you very much Nova Analítica Ltda for the opportunity to install this DMA 80evo in the Amazon Forest and also for all the members of the Instituto Mamirauá who welcomed me very well and showed me the difficulties of preserving the Amazon.

The ultraWAVE 3 user interface supports fast and easy operations. For a routine digestion, beginning the process only requires few seconds: open the method and press “start”. Single Reaction Chamber technology enables the use of a single method for the majority of sample types encountered in a typical lab. The system incorporates a comprehensive list of methods, including official and standard methods, that guides the operator in the optimization of parameters based on specific matrices, so that the time for any method development and refinement that is called for can be minimized. Customized methods can then be easily created and stored on the system. Learn more at: https://hubs.la/Q02vwgVY0
