Hi @whshannon,

I'm working on creating the term for this instrument, however, I'm a little unsure of what it does exactly and was wondering if you could help me. The way the documentation reads it leads me to believe that this instrument prepares the sample for another instrument to analyse. In this case they recommend using the Picarro G-2131i Carbon Isotope Analyzer. Is this correct? Or does this instrument have a detector so as to analyse DIC? Are the precision values given based on what another instrument will be able to measure thanks to the stripping ability of this instrument?

Thanks, Samantha

Thanks so much for this (and for all of the other recent additions!) I've updated our BCO-DMO records accordingly.
