Solid-Phase Extraction (SPE)

Solid-Phase Extraction (SPE) is a sample preparation technique used to isolate and purify and/or concentrate (trace enrich) analytes prior to chromatographic analysis. SPE improves and simplifies separations, increases chromatography column lifetime, and improves detection limits.

High efficiency packing materials, low recovery volumes of sample, sensitivity of separation plus the speed and number steps in the extraction protocol are critical parameters for successful SPE method development.

The range of possible analytes and matrices for SPE is vast and includes Pharmaceuticals or Drugs of Abuse in biological fluids through to contaminants in Foods and Pesticide residues in drinking water samples.

Crawford Scientific offers the CEREX range of µSPE Cartridges, Well-Plates and Positive Pressure Processors. Our wide range of 10µm sorbents and method development service enables the Analyst to develop an optimised solution for a multitude of sample preparation problems.
 
Let CEREX 10µm Polymer and Silica µSPE Cartridges and Well-Plates take your sample preparation to the next level:
  • Highest efficiency µSPE material available gives you improved reproducibility
  • Cleanest extracts mean more sensitivity and less downtime for MS source cleaning
  • Save time by eliminating the need for pre-concentration/reconsititution steps: Elute and Shoot
  • Increased recovery enables you to drive down your limits of detection
  • Fast, stable pH1-14 extractions for acids, bases and neutrals for streamlined method development
Combine with CEREX µSPE Advanced Positive Pressure Processing Systems (48 and 96 place) to achieve:
  • Up to 50% reduction in sample processing time
  • Uniform flow with no need for plugs or caps when processing small numbers of samples
  • 30psi max pressure flow for fast drying or to speed-up processing steps
  • Individual wells guarantee no carry over removing the need to repeat failed extraction
