Extract analytes of interest from large volume aqueous samples easily and efficiently with the Thermo Scientific Dionex AutoTrace 280 Solid-Phase Extraction (SPE) Instrument. The AutoTrace 280 automates all four steps of SPE (conditioning, loading, rinsing, and eluting), reducing solvent consumption and improving recovery and reproducibility. Boost productivity and reduce cost of analysis by simultaneously processing up to six samples in 2-3 hours with only 15 minutes of operator involvement. The AutoTrace 280 meets requirements in US EPA methods including the 500 and 600 series.
