See Agilent SampliQ QuEChERS Kits in Action!
QuEChERS is the fast, proven method to prepare food for pesticide analysis. Now it's easier than ever to start using it in your lab!
Multi-class, multi-residue pesticide analysis with new Agilent SampliQ QuEChERS Kits.
The QuEChERS (pronounced “catchers”) method saves food safety labs time and money. QuEChERS is the fast, proven method to prepare food for multi-residue, multi-class pesticide analysis. And it sure lives up to the name Quick, Easy, Cheap, Effective, Rugged and Safe.
Now, it’s easier than ever for you to start taking advantage of the QuEChERS method. New Agilent SampliQ QuEChERS Kits simplify the QuEChERS method, making it even easier and more reliable. Pre-packed Extraction Kits and Dispersive SPE Kits suit specific food types and screening protocols.
Extraction Kits contain pre-weighed salts in anhydrous packets, so you can add them after the acetonitrile, protecting the integrity of your sample.
Dispersive SPE Kits are assembled in 2 mL and 15 mL sizes, pre-weighed and pre-mixed with just the right mix of salts and sorbents for your aliquot volume.
Agilent’s tight quality control processes ensure that all QuEChERS salts, solvents and supplies are high quality and free of contaminants, so your results are accurate and reproducible.
