About Sample Preparation Sample Clean-up with DEXTech Pure
Solid phase extraction (SPE) cartridges are used in the sample preparation sample clean up with DEXTech pure. It is basically a sample preparation method to clean samples prior to analysis. The stationary phase in the SPE cartridges selectively adsorbs target analytes while permitting interference-causing chemicals to pass through. By experimenting with various circumstances and parameters including flow rates, solvent volumes, and wash/elution solvents, you should make sure the process works best for your particular application. Sample preparation sample clean up with DEXTech pure will facilitate the finest sample preparation and analytical outcomes possible. It is a go-to option for users in dioxin/PCB analysis.
Advanced Cartridge Technology for Reliable Sample Clean-upDEXTech Pure utilizes PTFE-encapsulated multi-layer columns, efficiently separating dioxins, PCBs, and mono-ortho fractions. This method ensures precision and accuracy that meet global regulatory standards. The system's fully automated design allows laboratories to achieve reproducible results with minimal operator intervention, reducing human error and exposure.
Workflow Efficiency and User SafetyWith an automated throughput of up to six samples per day, protocol dependent, DEXTech Pure streamlines POPs analysis for busy labs. Safety is prioritized through built-in solvent vapor control, sensor monitoring, automated alerts, and a tool-free cartridge change-reducing solvent exposure and supporting routine laboratory safety requirements.
Intuitive Operation and Flexible CompatibilityThe 7-inch touchscreen interface provides a user-friendly experience with programmable methods and immediate system response. Compatible with all typical POPs extraction solvents, the system's benchtop mounting means it integrates easily into existing laboratory spaces. USB and Ethernet interfaces enable seamless data transfer and connectivity for enhanced productivity.
