Fast and efficient clean up of complex samples

QuEChERS (Quick, Easy, Cheap, Effective, Rugged, Safe) is a technique designed to be simple and involve a minimum number of steps, but still allow for effective clean up of complex samples.

Biotage QuEChERS products include extraction tubes for the initial extraction and partitioning of analytes from homogenized food samples; and clean up tubes for the dispersive solid phase extraction. All Biotage QuEChERS products come packed in a rack for ease of storage and use on the bench. Additionally, solvent resistant paper labels aid hassle free sample indentification. Using Biotage QuEChERS tubes, analysts no longer need to weigh individual components, making the method even quicker and more consistent.

The QuECheRS technique involves two stages:

  1. A crude extraction and partitioning step using organic solvent and a salt solution
  2. A further extraction and clean up using dispersive solid phase extraction.
