PerkinElmer is set to introduce Supra-Clean and Supra-Poly Solid Phase Extraction (SPE) product lines, which offer customers a sample preparation solution that decreases preparation time and maintains a high level of reproducibility.

The company claims, using Precise Bed Technology and spherical media, silica based Supra-Clean and polymer based Supra-Poly allow columns to be evenly filled with particles sized for optimum distribution and results in consistent sample preparation.

PerkinElmer Analytical Sciences and Laboratory Services Aftermarket Solutions VP Jonathan Dilley said their customers have identified time and reproducibility as being their two primary challenges in preparing samples for the identification and quantification of environmental contaminants, as well as the extraction of pesticides, drug residuals, and mycotoxins from food samples.

"Our first generation solid phase extraction products will meet our customers’ challenges as they are precisely manufactured to yield uniform performance in a fraction of the time compared to other leading sample preparation techniques," Dilley said.
