Automated Solid Phase Extraction SPE2

Product catalog summary
Overview: The document discusses the automation of Solid Phase Extraction (SPE) using GERSTEL's solutions, which enhance efficiency, precision, and reproducibility in sample preparation for GC/MS and LC/MS analyses.
Key Features:
  • Automation Benefits: Automating SPE reduces manual labor, improves recovery and reproducibility, and maximizes sample throughput by performing SPE during the analysis of preceding samples.
  • System Integration: GERSTEL's automated SPE can be integrated with other sample preparation steps, such as derivatization and solvent evaporation, to improve detection limits and system stability.
  • Software and Operation: The MAESTRO software facilitates easy setup and operation, allowing method steps to be selected via mouse-click. It supports various sample preparation techniques and integrates with GC/MS or LC/MS systems for just-in-time sample preparation.
Performance Comparison:
  • Manual vs. Automated SPE: In tests with chloramphenicol (CAP) in food products, automated SPE achieved a 92% recovery rate with a 2.0% relative standard deviation, outperforming manual methods.
Additional Features:
  • MultiPurpose Sampler (MPS): Acts as an autosampler and sample preparation robot, enhancing laboratory efficiency and throughput.
  • Multi-Position Evaporation Station (mVAP): Enables solvent evaporation and analyte concentration, improving chromatography and detection limits.
  • Solvent Filling Station (SFS): Provides sufficient solvent capacity for large sample volumes, supporting continuous operation.
Conclusion: GERSTEL's automated SPE solutions offer significant improvements in sample preparation efficiency, accuracy, and reproducibility, making them ideal for high-throughput analytical laboratories.

Automated Solid Phase Extraction SPE2-2

Automated Solid Phase Extraction SPE with GERSTEL MPS Performing Solid Phase Extraction (SPE) manually can be time consuming and nerve-racking, especially when recovery and reproducibility are lacking due to sample variability. If SPE can be reliably automated, it becomes a much more efficient and reproducible process. GERSTEL offers automated integrated SPE solutions for GC/MS and LC/MS as well as stand-alone WorkStations. Automated SPE from GERSTEL is based on standard dimension 1 mL, 3 mL, and 6 mL cartridges. SPE can be combined with other sample preparation steps, such as adding a standard,...

Automated Solid Phase Extraction SPE2-4

r Solvent Filling Station (SFS3) l GERSTEL MAESTRO Software Comprehensive sample preparation procedures can require significant volumes of solvent - especially when large numbers of samples have to be processed overnight or on weekends. The GERSTEL Solvent Filling Station (SFS) for the MPS easily covers all your needs. The solvent dispensing station is mounted next to the sample trays and is small enough to avoid limiting the number of samples in most cases. Every one of the four dispensing positions is connected to a 1 liter reservoir. Up to three SFS can be attached and accessed by the MPS...
