PAL SPME Arrow The new dimension for Solid-Phase Micro Extraction SPME has become one of the most widely used extraction technologies for environmental, food and clinical analyses. It is well suited for automated sample preparation resulting in reduced time per sample, less sample manipulation and solvent consumption. However, the technology remained almost unchanged with some significant drawbacks, such as the limited mechanical stability and small phase volumes of the fibers. The PAL SPME Arrow (patent pending) is a new technology for micro-extraction, combining trace level sensitivity with...
