SiliCycle® Launches Its New SiliaPrepX™ Family of Polymeric SPE Cartridges and Well Plates

March 16, 2012 - PRLog -- SiliCycle, primarily renowned as a world leader for its UltraPure silica gels, has created the new SiliaPrepX family of polymeric SPE cartridges and well plates in order to become the one stop shop for all solid-phase extraction treatments.

«At SiliCycle, we are committed to offer the best and most diversified product lines for analytical, chromatography add organic chemistry, this is the reason why we launch today our new family of polymeric sorbents that includes all the phases currently used in the field of sample extraction», says David Dubé PhD, product specialist at SiliCycle.

As for its SiliaPrep™ silica-based SPE products, SiliCycle has created its new family of polymeric phases by leveraging its unique expertise in sample preparation acquired over the last sixteen years. The new SiliaPrepX polymeric SPE cartridges and well plates are made using state-of-the-art technology that provides the highest quality and lot-to-lot reproducibility, permitting clean extraction, reducing the ionic suppression, and increasing the selectivity for LC-MS/MS analysis. Moreover, SiliCycle conducts strict quality controls and analysis during the manufacturing process to remove from the assembly line any impurity or defect that could alter its products. The new SiliaPrepX polymeric sorbents allow the treatment of the most common matrices, such as human and animal biological fluids, waste waters, petrochemical and toxicological residues, food and beverage. The new SiliCycle SiliaPrepX family includes Hydrophilic-Lipophilic Balance (HLB), Divinylbenzene (DVB), Strong Cation and Anion Exchangers (SCX & SAX), as well as Weak Cation and Anion Exchangers (WCX & WAX).

The addition of the SiliaPrepX polymeric sorbents to the existing SiliaPrep silica-based SPE cartridges and well plates provides the complete solution for your solid phase extraction needs.
