Solid Phase Extraction (SPE) and QuEChERS
Solid Phase Extraction (SPE) is one of the most popular analytical sample preparation techniques of the current times. It is designed for preparing rapid and selective samples for subsequent chromatographic analysis. In SPE, one or more analytes from a liquid sample are isolated by extracting, partitioning, and/or adsorbing onto a solid stationary phase.
Explore our wide range of products that include individual cartridges, 96-well plates, QuEChERS tubes (dispersive SPE), and LiChrolut® extraction columns and tubes. Each one is packed with a distinct phase chemistry which can be processed using a vacuum manifold and dedicated accessories.
Section Overview
SPE Cartridges
We offer a diverse range of SPE-phase chemistries and cartridges ideal for many applications including pharmaceutical, clinical, food and beverage, environmental, petrochemical, and agriculture. The phase chemistry selection allows users to screen for the retention and selectivity required to achieve sample preparation objectives.
SPE Well Plates
Our SPE plates allow users to process up to 96 samples simultaneously for increased reproducibility and throughput, while maintaining excellent recoveries and increased sensitivity. 96-well plates offer compatibility with multi-channel pipettors and automation and are available with silica sorbent and polymeric adsorbent.
QuEChERS
The “QuEChERS” (Dispersive SPE, dSPE) method has emerged as a popular sample preparation technique in the area of multi-residue pesticide analysis for food and agricultural products. The QuEChERS technique offers the advantage of higher recoveries, accurate results, and high sample throughput.
DPX® Tips
Dispersive Pipette Extraction (DPX) tips provide an in-tip solution for complete sample preparation that can be easily automated to achieve extraction in seconds. HybridSPE® sorbent material is loosely contained within a tip, for selective retention and removal of endogenous phospholipid interferences from biological matrices for LC-MS or LC-MS/MS analysis.
LiChrolut® Extraction Columns & Tubes
LiChrolut® extraction columns and tubes use strong but reversible interactions between the analyte and the surface of the stationary. Typical interactions include hydrophobic (Van-der-Waals forces), polar (hydrogen bonding, dipole-dipole forces) or ion exchange interactions, and assure reliable and economical solid phase extractions
