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. Find the best SPE, SLE and SPME equipment in our peer-reviewed product directory: compare products, check customer reviews and receive pricing direct from manufacturers.Quantitative AnalysesQuantitative analyses involve measuring the amount or concentration of a substance in a sample using analytical techniques. These analyses are essential in fields like chemistry, biology, and environmental science. Explore quantitative analysis tools in our peer-reviewed product directory; compare products, check reviews, and get pricing directly from manufacturers.Solid Phase Extraction (SPE)Solid phase extraction (SPE) is a sample preparation technique used to separate and concentrate analytes from complex mixtures. 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. Explore SPE tools and systems in our peer-reviewed product directory; compare products, check reviews, and get pricing directly from manufacturers.Blood AnalysisThe analysis of blood is vital for many areas of life sciences and forensic investigations. Blood samples can be tested for a number of different reasons such as diagnosis, glucose levels, cholesterol and drug testing.CannabinoidsCannabinoids are compounds found in cannabis that have therapeutic effects, such as pain relief, anti-inflammatory properties, and potential neuroprotective benefits. Research into cannabinoids is growing, particularly in the fields of pain management, neurological diseases, and cancer treatments. Browse our peer-reviewed product directory to find the best cannabinoid research tools, compare products, check reviews, and get pricing directly from manufacturers.UrineThe analysis of urine is important in medicinal, anti-doping, forensic and life sciences applications. The ability to evaluate what someone has ingested through their urine enables fast detection and diagnosis of certain illnesses.
