KPM Analytics has expanded its NexaFlo® Continuous Flow Platform with enhanced capabilities specifically designed for seawater nutrient analysis. As part of this technical development, the brand has introduced next-generation analyzers that deliver improved sensitivity while maintaining compatibility with established marine chemistry methods.
KPM Analytics' new NexaFlo® Continuous Flow Platform centers on two instrument models with upgraded electronics and advanced signal processing. These work collectively to reduce background noise and achieve two to three times better analytical performance compared to the prior Futura platform. The machine capable of seawater nutrient analysis will, thus, enable laboratories to detect extremely low concentrations of critical nutrients such as nitrate, phosphate, and ammonium with significantly greater reliability.
To further simplify the implementation of the technology, KPM Analytics introduces a dedicated bundle of pre-configured manifolds for the most common seawater tests.

Trend Themes
-
Ultra-sensitive Seawater Analytics — Detection of trace-level nitrate, phosphate and ammonium concentrations that reveal subtle biogeochemical shifts previously obscured by noise.
-
Integrated Pre-configured Test Bundles — Standardized manifolds and workflows that simplify deployment across labs and create opportunities for scalable, repeatable seawater assay networks.
-
Advanced Signal Processing for Marine Chemistry — Enhanced electronics and noise-reduction algorithms that enable more reliable interpretation of low-intensity chemical signals in complex saline matrices.
Industry Implications
-
Marine Research Laboratories — Higher analytical sensitivity supporting finer-scale studies of nutrient cycling, plankton dynamics and coastal ecosystem responses to environmental change.
-
Aquaculture and Fisheries — Improved monitoring of dissolved nutrient loads and water quality parameters that correlate with stock health and feed efficiency metrics.
-
Environmental Monitoring Agencies — More consistent and comparable seawater nutrient datasets across monitoring stations that strengthen regulatory assessments and early-warning capability for eutrophication events.
