Uppsala, Sweden, June 7, 2016 / B3C newswire / -- Biotage (STO: BIOT), a leading global supplier of solutions and technology for analytical, medicinal and peptide chemistry, is pleased to announce the launch of a new range of On-line SPE Cartridges, an alternative SPE format, designed for use primarily in integrated SPE-HPLC-(MS/MS) systems. Containing EVOLUTE® EXPRESS ABN or ISOLUTE® ENV+ sorbents, On-Line SPE cartridges consist of a stainless steel cartridge with standard HPLC compatible end fittings.
Biotage On-line SPE cartridges allow sample preparation to be fully integrated into an automated analytical workflow. The on-line approach can reduce sample size, handling and preparation, and increases throughput while minimizing waste and solvent consumption. The columns come with standard stainless steel HPLC fittings, and are compatible with most systems.
Biotage On-line SPE cartridges are primarily aimed at the environmental market for extraction of trace organic analytes from water samples. Trace analysis of organics in water traditionally involves large sample volumes, labor intensive procedures and relatively high use of solvents. The on-line SPE approach uses a well-established hardware setup, and fully integrates sample preparation into the analytical workflow. Typical sample volumes of 1-10mL, and lower solvent usage mean sample collection, transport and handling, along with solvent disposal costs, are much reduced.
“The availability of the most popular Biotage SPE sorbents such as ISOLUTE® ENV+ in the On-line SPE format allows our customers to fully automate extraction of a wide range of trace organics from water, including very polar analytes such as acid herbicides” said Dr. Claire Desbrow, Product Manager Analytical Chemistry (Application Development), Biotage.
