S-A-LE was started out of dissatisfaction with the quality, delivery times and prices of other used laboratory equipment vendors. This daughter company from KAIN sells all kinds of used laboratory equipment and other used laboratory supplies, such as glassware, spare parts and furniture. Aim is to deliver quality at a fair price.  All offered are on stock and have been cleaned, tested and if necessary refurbished up-front in our own laboratory. Then they are offered for sale on our website and ready for delivery. Read more »

One of our customers asked us to analyse on a regular basis the content of gallic acid in feed samples for them. The application is relatively uncommon, complex and the number of samples small which made it difficult to outsource. Large contract laboratories are usually more focussed on the "bigger" applications, such as vitamins or pesticides.

KAIN excepts the assignment and after developing and validating a reliable method analysis samples on a regular basis. Quality is secured by analysing: a 5-point calibration curve, sample duplicates, repetitive standards, blanks, blank chemicals (procedural blank), quality control samples and recovery samples. The attached test report shows the anonymized QC results from the latest set of samples. Read more »
