Micro SPE Using Carbon Nanotubes
Scientists from the New Jersey Institute of Technology (Newark, New Jersey) used micro solid-phase extraction (SPE) devices consisting of single- and multiwalled carbon nanotubes packed in the needle of a syringe for sampling, analyte enrichment, and sample introduction.
Scientists from the New Jersey Institute of Technology (Newark, New Jersey) used micro solid-phase extraction (SPE) devices consisting of single- and multiwalled carbon nanotubes packed in the needle of a syringe for sampling, analyte enrichment, and sample introduction. They found that conventional C18 and self-assembled carbon nanotubes were not effective as sorbent phases, but packed beds of carbon nanotubes provided high extraction efficiencies and enrichment factors for polar compounds.
RAFA 2024 Highlights: Contemporary Food Contamination Analysis Using Chromatography
November 18th 2024A series of lectures focusing on emerging analytical techniques used to analyse food contamination took place on Wednesday 6 November 2024 at RAFA 2024 in Prague, Czech Republic. The session included new approaches for analysing per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS), polychlorinated alkanes (PCAS), Mineral Oil Hydrocarbons (MOH), and short- and medium-chain chlorinated paraffins (SCCPs and MCCPs).
