iv UK Focus Automated sample prep for streamlined chromatography
Tecan has introduced Resolvex Prep, an innovative mid-range benchtop automation solution tailored for chromatography sample preparation. This new instrument is poised to signifi cantly improve the effi ciency, precision, and dependability of chromatography sample preparation, bearing considerable relevance for analytical chemistry, proteomics, and applications within the fi eld of biomedical research.
Sample preparation for chromatography is a critical and technically intricate undertaking. Even slight variations can profoundly affect downstream assays. Through the automation of this process, laboratories can not only save valuable time and resources but also bolster the reliability of their outcomes.
Specifi cally designed for chromatography workfl ows, Resolvex Prep is ideally suited for LC-MS sample preparation. It offers the capability to process a wide range of batch sizes, spanning from fi ve to 100 samples. As such, it is particularly well-suited to medium-throughput laboratories. Moreover, it presents a cost-effective solution for enhancing both productivity and sample quality.
Resolvex Prep effectively addresses numerous challenges associated with chromatography sample preparation. By employing direct displacement
pipetting, it mitigates the risks connected with volatile solvents. Additionally, it accommodates sealed sample tubes to prevent evaporation during processing. Notably, this automated system contributes to mitigating the existing shortage of trained laboratory personnel and is in compliance with chain of custody requirements.
A distinctive feature of Resolvex Prep is its fusion of high-quality, precision-engineered hardware with user-centric software characterised by its user-friendliness. The system can be mastered in less than an hour, and its robust yet adaptable confi guration streamlines effi ciency while minimising the potential for human error, ultimately resulting in precise and dependable outcomes.
Luca Valeggia, Senior Vice President of Lab Automation at Tecan, remarked: “We’re very pleased to be launching this new instrument. Bringing automation to the critical task of LC-MS sample prep will accelerate progress in a whole range of applications, from MS-based proteomics to biologics quality control, as well as food and environmental testing. It’s another contribution Tecan is making to help scale healthcare innovation globally.”
The versatility of Resolvex Prep makes it an invaluable addition to analytical laboratories across various domains, including pharmaceuticals, environmental sciences, food and beverage, forensics, and quality control processes.
Total workfl ow approach for environmental sample analysis
Over the years, laboratories analysing environmental samples have transitioned from AA to ICP-OES and ICP-MS to increase productivity, improve data quality, and meet new regulations. At the same time, sample preparation of environmental samples has also evolved moving from relatively rudimentary open-vessel digestion to advanced closed vessel digestion marked by technologies like contactless temperature control and advanced vessel designs allowing higher temperatures and pressures.
These advances have led to improved digestion times, quality, blanks, and safety. While the digestion step attracts the most attention in the preparation process, there are other equally important steps in the total workfl ow that should be considered, some of which may be unexpected in scope and scale.
A Milestone e-book download is available from Analytix that presents a ‘total workfl ow’ approach to sample preparation and examines the ways to improve key aspects of elemental analysis via an optimisation of the following steps: Acid supply and quality, reagent addition, vessel handling, microwave digestion, sample fi ltering, and labware cleaning.
As well as the key aspects, the e-book also offers practical advice for preventing workfl ow disruptions such as incomplete digestions or sample contamination that restrict a laboratory from meeting overall performance, costs, and safety goals. Also included are links to request videos, technology reports, multiple webinars, and two case studies where employing the ‘total workfl ow’ approach has resulted in lower costs and time saving benefi ts plus reduced errors and contamination.
Analytix can provide solutions from Milestone for each step of the sample preparation ‘total workfl ow’ approach that will have a meaningful impact on laboratory elemental analysis of environmental samples. These solutions aid improved sample processing times, improved quality of results by reducing detection limits, and improved effi ciency by optimising operator time and cost per sample.
