Empore® EZ-Trace Solid Phase Extraction (SPE) extraction workstation is designed to improve the efficiency of the traditional disk and cartridge SPE workflow by allowing users to perform up to 4 extractions simultaneously. This manual, vacuum-controlled extraction workstation offers a high quality, cost-effect alternative to other high-priced, automated options.

• Universal compatibility
• User friendly layout
• Independent channel design
• Precise flow rate control
• High sample flow rate
• High-throughput flow path switches
• Inert sample pathways
• Separate organic and aqueous waste collection

Up to 4 extractions can be performed simultaneously. The independent channels design ensures that each channel will not effect the others, preventing cross-contamination. The lure tip fitting at each extraction station make the EZ-Trace universally compatible. This is perfect for traditional SPE cartridges and the disk adapter assemblies included with the EZ-Trace.

Each extraction station is equipped with a valve for easy switching between sample collection and waste removal. The flow can also be stopped with this valve to allow for solvent soaking steps. Each EZ-Trace unit comes with 4 standard 40mL collection vials and screw cap adapters. This simple design allows for easy setup and adaptive use of other types of collection vials. Equipped with a needle valve for both waste and elution flow, these valves allow for precision flow control. This feature makes the EZ-Trace perfect for both small and large volume samples. This switching valve allows for separation of organic and aqueous waste streams. This environmentally friendly feature assists in proper disposal of each type of waste.

Inert sample pathways made of PEEK, PTFE, and stainless steal prevent corrosion from organic solvents such as DCM. This extends the application range of the EZ-Trace and extends the lifetime of the parts. The simple flow design makes the EZ-Trace easy to maintain, clean, and replace components as needed.
