Performance level 3: High performance, When sensitivity is a must

Protect your most valuable samples and deliver consistent,  reproducible results for your most demanding analyses

Our Thermo Scientific SureSTART Performance Level 3 products are packed in clean rooms to protect them against environmental factors and contain the lowest amounts/levels of metals, extractables and leachable; ensuring that you can get the sensitivity and selectivity from your most challenging analytes confidently and consistently.

If you are looking for the ultimate performance from your methods, whilst maintain the highest levels of sample security and integrity, our Performance Level 3 products will meet your needs. Select the products with the three waves.

For analytes that are prone to glass adsorption why not try our GOLD-grade glass technology which has been specifically designed for these more challenging polar analytes, as well as our silanized vials and inserts. 

This offering includes Thermo Scientific SureStop vials, which, when used with 9mm AVCS caps, ensure an optimal seal every time. The SureStop vial - AVCS cap system is specially designed to prevent screw thread vial failures such as cap tilt, cap deformities, dislodged septa or septa push through, thus prevents injection failures and sample evaporation. 

Our Performance level 3 septa have the highest purity as they have been conditioned to remove all the low-mid boiling volatiles providing the lowest extractables and leachables within the collection. You can also find within this performance level soft septa options for ultimate needle performance, as these products offer protection for even the most fragile needles with the highest gauge and SPME fibers. You can also find our high temperature compatible septa here.
