Automated Liquid-Liquid Extraction (LLE): Improving Reproducibility, Throughput, and Data Quality in Analytical Workflows
Introduction Liquid-liquid extraction (LLE) has been a cornerstone of analytical sample preparation for decades. From environmental testing and clinical toxicology to pharmaceutical analysis and food safety applications, LLE remains one of the most effective techniques for isolating target analytes from complex matrices. Despite its widespread use, traditional manual LLE presents numerous challenges that can negatively […]
Automating the Determination of 3-MCPD, 2-MCPD, and Glycidol Esters in Edible Oils with the GERSTEL MPS
Introduction As shown in previous blogs (MOSH/MOAH), the GERSTEL MPS smart series robotic sampler enables the automated separation and determination of MOSH and MOAH, food safety contaminants found in edible oils (AppNote 228, AppBriefs 19 and 20). This blog will discuss how the same robotic sampler can also be used to automate the extraction and […]
Ensuring Food Safety through Automation: The Role of Analytical Laboratories, GERSTEL MPS, and LCTech FREESTYLE SPE Systems
Food Safety Testing Food safety is a cornerstone of public health, and analytical laboratories play a vital role in safeguarding our food supply by detecting harmful contaminants, verifying nutritional content, and ensuring regulatory compliance. As food chains grow more complex and the demand for high-throughput, accurate testing increases, modern laboratories face mounting pressure to deliver […]
