Uppsala,
Sweden, April 16, 2013 -- Biotage
(STO: BIOT), a leading global supplier of solutions and technology
for analytical, medicinal and peptide chemistry, has announced the
launch of ISOLUTE® Myco SPE columns, a new product for the 'catch
and release' clean up of mycotoxins from food matrices, prior to
analysis by LC-MS/MS.
The
ISOLUTE® Myco sorbent is a proprietary polymeric phase (patent
pending) optimized for the extraction of a broad spectrum of
mycotoxins from a wide range of foodstuffs; enabling chemists to
utilize a single SPE product to extract all relevant mycotoxins from
an individual foodstuff. Using a single, easy to use sample
preparation product, along with optimized matrix specific application
notes, scientists can prepare diverse samples for analysis by
LC-MS/MS.
ISOLUTE®
Myco SPE columns have been developed for use together with LC-MS/MS
analysis, their selective clean up enables robust, reliable
quantitation of mycotoxins without compromising analytical data
quality. The coupling of a dedicated polymer based sorbent with
LC-MS/MS analysis saves both time and money as more samples can be
processed each day compared to IAC based clean up. The tabless 3 mL
format of the ISOLUTE® Myco columns is suitable for a variety of
processing equipment including vacuum manifolds, positive pressure
manifolds and automated SPE workstations.
"ISOLUTE®
Myco SPE columns are a real step forward in mycotoxin sample
preparation, helping scientists to fully exploit the advantages of
higher productivity and highly selective LC-MS/MS analysis through
the use of a truly optimized sample preparation regime" says Dr.
Claire Desbrow, Global Product Manager.
