Improving Sample Preparation Workflow with Automated Evaporation
7 Aug 2016Evaporation is a sample preparation technique that is often performed following extraction. Evaporation techniques may present a challenge to laboratories when they are not entirely automated. The Thermo Scientific™ Rocket™ Evaporator system automates the concentration process following extraction using a Thermo Scientific™ Dionex™ ASE™ Accelerated Solvent Extractor system or a Thermo Scientific™ AutoTrace™ 280 Solid-Phase Extraction instrument. The Rocket Evaporator eliminates the challenges experienced with nitrogen stream evaporation or rotary vacuum evaporation such as solvent bumping, need for a fume hood, and lack of end point detection.
