Waters - UPLC with On-line SPE Technology

Manufactured by  Waters
Follow this Equipment

Streamlines drinking water analysis by providing analyte extraction, clean-up, concentration, separation, and detection in one turn-key solution.

The UPLC® with On-line SPE Technology streamlines the analysis of drinking water samples by providing analyte extraction, cleanup, concentration, separation, and detection in one turn-key solution.    
    
Automated sample handling, proprietary chromatographic media, ultra-sensitive optical & mass spectrometry detectors, and a database with complete LC/MS method information comprise an integrated on-line SPE/LC/MS/MS solution.    
    
Key benefits:    
        
  1. Throughput - Sample analysis and preparation times reduced from approximately three hours to as little as 15 minutes.    
  2. Flexibility - Functions as an on-line SPE system or a stand alone UPLC with multiple optical and mass spectrometer detection options.    
  3. Cost - The use of significantly smaller sample volumes can reduce shipping costs from remote locations.    
  4. Productivity - With a reduction in sample processing time, scientists can allocate more time to other laboratory tasks.    
  5. Quality - Ensures reproducible results by eliminating manual variability.    
  6. Applications - Detect endocrine disruptors, fungicides, herbicides, pesticides, personal care products, pharmaceuticals, soft drink additives, and veterinary drug residues.
