Tecan AC Extraction Plate™ for Sample Preparation

20 Nov 2013

Quantification of small molecules in biological samples by LC-MS is generally only performed after a sample clean-up step. Tecan’s innovative AC Extraction Plate simplifies sample preparation for LC-MS, requiring only minimal liquid handling steps and avoiding the need for precipitation, filtration, centrifugation or solvent evaporation.

AC Extraction Plate™

Tecan

The Tecan AC Extraction Plate* with TICE™ (Tecan Immobilized Coating Extraction) technology revolutionizes your sample preparation routine. The AC Extraction Plate is a 96-well, deep-well microplate, with each well having a proprietary TICE™ coating. TICE is a material with distinct absorptive properties, and this coating efficiently extracts specific small molecule analytes from aqueous solutions, releasing them when in contact with a suitable organic solvent. A simple pipette and shake sequence, with no filtration, centrifugation or solvent evaporation, is all that is required. The AC Extraction Plate is easily integrated into automated processes, making it a perfect match with Tecan’s Freedom EVO® liquid handling platform. AC Extraction Plate™ Features: Cost-effective – Simple pipette and shake workflow, without labor intensive centrifugation, filtration and solvent evaporation steps. Convenient and fast – Just unpack and start, no conditioning or other preparations needed. Highly reproducible – Pipette and shake routines are easily standardized and automated on a liquid handling platform, eliminating random errors and increasing consistency of results. * For research use only – not for clinical diagnostic applications

Mass SpectrometryMass spectrometry (MS) is a powerful analytical technique used to identify and quantify molecules based on the mass-to-charge ratio of gas-phase ions. It provides detailed information about the structure, composition, and properties of compounds and is widely used across fields such as environmental monitoring, materials science, drug discovery and development, food and beverage testing, and wider chemical research. Key MS techniques include tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS), liquid chromatography–mass spectrometry (LS-MS) and inductively coupled plasma (ICP-MS). Choosing from these wide range of techniques and technologies can be a daunting task, so keep up to date with scientific applications, performance expectations, and customer reviews here all in one place.

ChromatographyChromatography is a powerful technique used to separate and analyze components of mixtures based on their chemical properties. It is widely used in fields like biochemistry, pharmaceuticals, and environmental analysis. By exploiting differences in the interaction of substances with a stationary phase and a mobile phase, chromatography enables precise purification and quantification of compounds. Whether you're working with complex biological samples or industrial chemicals, chromatography is essential for obtaining high-quality results.
