New Highly-Selective AFFINILUTE MIP Sample Preparation Colums from Biotage

New AFFINILUTE MIP (Molecularly Imprinted Polymers) columns for analytical sample preparation from Biotage simplify highly selective extractions. This results in faster, more robust and ultimately lower cost sample preparation.

AFFINILTE MIP columns contain engineered cross-linked polymers that exhibit high affinity and selectivity towards a single compound or class of compounds. They are ideal for the extraction of analytes from complex matrices such as plasma, urine, muscle tissue, food matrices and environmental samples. The selectivity of AFFINILUTE MIPs allows for trace level extraction (Biotage AFFINILUTE MIP columns offer analytical chemists ultimate selectivity compared with standard solid phase extraction techniques. Unlike other methods, they rely on the specific molecular structure of the analyte for targeted capture resulting in exceptional clean up. AFFINILUTE combines high affinity with standard flow through sample preparation methodology.

The highly selective AFFINILUTE MIP columns serve a wide variety of analytical chemists in environmental, forensic, clinical and food testing laboratories. Typical analytes include Beta-blockers and Beta-agonists, Riboflavin (vitamin B2), triazine herbicides, antibiotics, tobacco specific by-products, amphetamines, fluoroquinolones, nitroimidazoles and more.

Biotage sample preparation products are supported by a wealth of knowledge and experience in method development and support. “Our expertise helps guide customers in choosing the right product and most efficient method that best suits their analytical needs”, says Scott Carr, VP of Commercial Operations. “At Biotage we strive to develop innovative scientific solutions that are simple, reliable and deliver accurate results. This new generation of sample preparation columns reflects Biotage’s expertise and continued commitment to high quality sample preparation.”
