Organic Sample Preparation
Solid-phase extraction, commonly referred to the acronym SPE, is an extraction technique that uses the affinity of a solid substance (solid phase), generally packed in columns or disks, with one or more substances present in a more or less complex matrix.

The Sepaths UP is designed for both cartridge and disk applications to treat samples with different volumes. It automatically treats from 1 to 12 same or different samples, through the whole treatment process, including condition, sample loading, rinsing, elution and concentration.
From 1 to 120mL/min fl ow rate
Sample volume from 1mL to 20L
Different cartridge and disk available
Different sample collection vials options
Display for real-time process
Possibility to manage via software up to 8 solvents
1 to 12 samples run simultaneously
SPE Process control of the flow rate is critical to guarantee reproducible extractions.
Differently than any other systems, the LabTech WSPE vacuum manifold features a patented valve system able
to grant precise flow control through each cartridge. The WSPE vacuum manifolds allow to process up to 12
(WSPE12) or 24 (WSPE24) samples simultaneously.
