Improve Lab Efficiency with Smart SPME Arrows
Restek's SPME product line is getting SMART—our company now offers Smart SPME Arrows and Smart SPME fibers. The new Smart technology offers the same application, performance, and lifetime as the products you’ve come to rely on with the added feature of a smart chip that can keep track of parameters, ranges, and usage history.
Restek PAL SPME Arrows and fibers offer solutions for a wide range of volatile and semivolatile analytes in a variety of sample matrices.
While SPME fibers work well for many applications, Smart SPME Arrows provide added benefits:
- Backwards compatibility with any generation of PAL3 Systems.
- Rugged, stainless-steel construction ensures longer lifetimes.
- Faster extraction means higher sample throughput.
- Better sensitivity allows lower LODs.

New Study Uses MSPE with GC–MS to Analyze PFCAs in Water
January 20th 2025Scientists from the China University of Sciences combined magnetic solid-phase extraction (MSPE) with gas chromatography–mass spectrometry (GC–MS) to analyze perfluoro carboxylic acids (PFCAs) in different water environments.
The Next Frontier for Mass Spec: Maximizing Ion Utilization
January 20th 2025MOBILion has introduced a new high-resolution mass spectrometry (HRMS) approach that can increase speed and sensitivity in omics applications. The parallel accumulation with mobility aligned fragmentation (PAMAF) approach substantially increases the fraction of ions used for MS analysis by replacing the functionality of the quadrupole with high-resolution ion mobility.
SPE-Based Method for Detecting Harmful Textile Residues
January 14th 2025University of Valencia scientists recently developed a method using solid-phase extraction (SPE) followed by high-performance liquid chromatography coupled to high-resolution mass spectrometry (HPLC–HRMS/MS) for detecting microplastics and other harmful substances in textiles.
