Supel™ Swift HLB 96-Well Plates
Supel™ Swift HLB is a polymeric stationary phase for solid phase extraction (SPE) prior to instrumental analysis. It has both hydrophilic and lipophilic functional groups for the extraction of a broad range of compounds from aqueous samples. It retains analytes having diff erent polarities and Log P values due to its hydrophilic and lipophilic balance (HLB) property.
Supel™ Swift HLB is a co-polymer solid phase extraction (SPE) phase composed of both hydrophilic and lipophilic functional groups. This phase is ideal for extracting a broad range of compounds from aqueous samples, including food and environmental samples, as well as biological samples (eg. serum and plasma). Because of the hydrophilic and lipophilic balanced (HLB) property, the polymer material can selectively retain a wide range of compounds with different polarities and LogP values.
Traditional HLB SPE uses a five-step process for sample preparation that normally includes the conditioning of sorbents with an organic solvent followed by an equilibration step to return sorbents to sample loading conditions. The product design allows for direct sample loading onto the sorbent bed, thereby eliminating the conditioning step altogether. This product feature can both save time and simplify sample preparation, which may also serve to reduce sample processing errors.
The 96-well format is perfect for medium to high-throughput laboratories performing large numbers of samples at a time and is also amenable to automation. The 96-well plates come in 10mg/well and 30mg/well sizes.
