System Ensures Trouble-free Sample Cleanup

The Microlute SPE sample preparation system from Porvair Sciences provides a fast, trouble-free alternative to cartridges for high productivity sample clean-up.

The system also enables users to increase assay sensitivity by providing reliable pre-injection clean-up and concentration on samples as small as 150 µl. Supplied as a package including filter plate, collection plate, waste tray and manifold, the sample preparation system contains all the elements to deliver the advantages of high productivity SPE sample preparation in a convenient microplate format. Plates are available with a choice of sorbent, filter and sample collection plates (350 µl, 1ml or 2ml well volumes) to optimally match the user’s sample clean-up requirements. Using a proprietary sorbent slurry loading technique, the plate has been developed to eliminate the channeling effects that typically limit the performance of dry powder loaded SPE columns. Each well has an individual drain spout ensuring 100% sample transfer and zero crossover contamination.
