Athena Instruments Pvt. Ltd.

SPE Vacuum Manifold System Vacuum SPE Manifold, Solid phase extraction SPE is a chromatographic technique used to prepare samples for subsequent analysis by removing interfering substances that may be present. The general procedure includes sorbent activation, loading, washing and eluting. This is done either by retaining the substance of interest and washing off everything else or by retaining the interfering substances and eluting the product of interest. The vacuum SPE devices are designed to concentrate or isolate analytes from complex sample matrices. It allows processing of extraction columns with high sample throughput at minimal expense. Solvents and samples are aspirated through the columns by a vacuum of 0-20 inches Hg. Eluates are collected in tubes positioned in a removable rack inside the manifold. The 12-ports and 24-ports manifold accommodate up to 12 and 24 columns, respectively.

 

Application:

• Multiple sample processing saves time and money.
• Female Luer inlets fit all male Luer tipped SPE tubes and cartridges.
• Compatible with standard Luer-tipped SPE and filtration columns.
• Glass chamber allows easy visual monitoring.
• Adjustable racks accommodate a variety of test tubes, vials and flasks.
• Available in 12 and 24-position for standard tubes

Positive Pressure Solid Phase Extraction:
SPE cartridges are used in a broad variety of labs – hospitals and toxicology service labs performing medicolegal drug testing, CRO’s for bio analytical/bio equivalence studies and food contaminants testing labs. The manual process is very labour intensive and makes operators prone to RSI. Human errors lead to lower TAT, more repeat tests and therefore higher costs and overall lowered lab efficiency. Moreover, operators are exposed to hazardous solvents posing health risks. 144 positive pressure processor for solid phase extraction columns96 positive pressure processor for solid phase extraction columns48 positive pressure processor for solid phase extraction columns Uniform flow across all columns High end positive pressure manifold Higher pressure. Up to 80 PSI More effective on difficult matrices such as oral fluid, viscous urines or whole blood Active drying of the SPE bed to facilitate complete dryness

Features:

• Decreased variation in column processing, improved analyte recovery reproducibility Formatted
• for SPE ware microparticulate sorbents
• Vacuum manifolds max out at 1 Atmosphere
• Further improves ruggedness of methods and produces more reproducible methods
• Increased flexibility in method optimization
• Manifold Available in 48, 96 place formats
• Reduced run to run variability, reduced operator variability More reproducible methods with reduced risk of errors
• Programmable pressure profiles
• Electronic, programmable flow control

The Athena System 96 allows for gas pressures up to the supplied line pressure (typically 60-75 psi.), thus supplying greater motive force for viscous sample flow. Adjusting the pressure up or down, produces a column flow response that is smooth and immediate. The optional heated manifold provides for rapid and thorough column drying, resulting in cleaner extracts and superior specificity when working with non-polar elution solvents.
In contrast, the System 96 uses unique, restricted-flow gas ports. These ports create superior flow control such that even if 95 out of 96 wells are empty, dry, or wet, the remaining single well will receive normal pressure to allow facile processing.

Features and Advantages:

• Highly uniform flow from sample to sample for SPE, Protein Precipitation and Supported Liquid Extraction
• Improved reproducibility, accuracy and extraction efficiency, even with viscous samples
• Parallel processing for increased sample throughput
• Easy to set-up and use with just a gas source
• Universal designs accommodate all 96 well plates, or 1 mL, 3 mL and 6 mL SPE columns
• Built-in safety features ensure ease of use and safe operation

Positive Pressure Manifolds for simple Sample Preparation96 Positive Pressure Manifolds Athena System 96 for Positive Pressure SPE provides uniformity of flow - something that is not achievable with conventional vacuum manifolds.
The System 96 offers an efficient solution to viscous samples. Vacuum manifolds often cannot provide adequate processing power, since the maximum pressure is limited to less than atmospheric pressure (approx. 15 psi). 96 well plates, 1 mL 3 mL and 6 mL column formats. The systems utilize a consistent, uniform flow of positive pressure to move both low and high viscosity liquids through SPE plates and columns.
