A Simple Approach to Automated Solid Phase Extraction (SPE) with Strata™-X Polymeric Sorbents
19 Jan 2015As more emphasis is being placed on higher throughput, many labs are turning to automation to help in the sample preparation process. Automation not only saves time but can also reduce costs associated with labor and solvents and can also increase reproducibility within a lab as well as within a network of labs. This document is intended for laboratories that are moving towards automated solid phase extraction (SPE) to guide them in setting up and optimizing their automated SPE capable system for unattended or semi-attended SPE extraction.

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.

It is widely used in environmental, pharmaceutical, and clinical analysis. SPE provides higher sensitivity and selectivity compared to traditional liquid-liquid extraction methods, making it essential for accurate and reproducible results.
