Phenomenex Inc., a global leader in the research and manufacture of advanced technologies for the separation sciences, introduces the Solid Phase Extraction (SPE) Method Development Tool – a fast online resource.

This tool develops methods across a variety of sample matrices and compounds, enabling users to improve analyte concentration and detector response. The researcher enters the name of the analytical target or selects “proprietary” to develop a method based on the chemical characteristics of the analyte.

The Phenomenex SPE Method Development Tool, which can be accessed via the company article page, produces customized methods in less than one minute, with options to save, print or e-mail to a colleague. Users can also view an alternative method, if desired.

“The use of SPE is on the rise in many industries because cleaner samples increase column life and provide increased sensitivity with fewer interferences,” explains Erica Pike, brand manager for Phenomenex. “Researchers are continually developing new and revised methods, and we have already developed more than 700 using this tool.”

The scalable methods provided with this new tool take advantage of the Phenomenex Strata™-X polymer-based and Strata® silica-based sorbents. Pretreatment recommendations for a variety of sample matrices are also provided.

Strata-X-Drug Solid Phase Extraction

Phenomenex Inc

Strata-X Drug B and N Solid Phase Extraction (SPE) sorbents are designed and quality control tested for basic and neutral drugs of abuse analysis, respectively. The sorbents are QC tested using drug probes from urine samples so that you can have confidence in your results. The sorbents also do not require conditioning/equilibrating steps, saving both time and solvent.

Data AnalysisData analysis hardware and software is available to make data processing straight-forward yet powerful. Data software can be used for math and stats, technical graphing and image analysis. In addition, software is available for specific data analysis of electrophoresis, densitometry, ELISA and DNA sequencing.Solid-Phase ExtractionSolid-phase extraction (SPE) is used for clean-up, extraction and concentration of semi-volatile or non-volatile analytes from complex mixtures including blood, urine and food samples. Multiple formats are available for conducting SPE, including prepacked SPE cartridges, disks and microplates, as well as SPE sorbent powders for manual packing. SPE systems can be used to automate the process and extract multiple samples at once. Solid-phase microextraction (SPME) and supported liquid extraction (SLE) products are also available in the same formats.
