Matrix has been designed for those customers who need to prepare samples prior to analysis, but do not have large enough numbers to justify a fully automated sample preparation workstation
Matrix is described as an ideal solution for analysts using gas chromatography or GC-MS who have the requirement to carry out micro-extractions using techniques such as SPME, SPDE, LPDE or headspace.
In addition Matrix can also carry out sample derivatisation for HPLC or GC analysis.
Typical operations:.
Sample enrichment/extraction using SPME, SPDE, LPDE or HS.
Fibre derivatisation using SPME.
Sample derivatisation for GC or HPLC analysis.
Fibre rinsing with water after the desorption in the GC injector to remove salt residue.
Technical specification:.
Temperature 5C above room temperature to 140C.
Agitation speed programmable.
Ten methods in memory.
Incubation time programmable from 1 to 255 minutes.
Adsorption time programmable from 1 to 255 minutes.
