Significant improvements in the isolation of pharmaceutical compounds
from plasma, serum and urine, have been achieved using ultra low mass
sorbent bed and thin disk solid-phase extraction (SPE) material. The u
se of low sorbent masses or disk SPE material has allowed a significan
t reduction in solvent usage and extraction times. The reduction in so
lvent volumes required has allowed elution volumes to be reduced to as
low as 30 mu l with high and consistent analyte recovery. Several SPE
RP-HPLC methods have been developed using these materials, including
LC-MS methods. When the chromatographic conditions allow the eluent to
be injected directly or injected after dilution with distilled water
Empore disks are the extraction media of choice due to the materials l
ow elution volume requirements. When operated in the 96-well microtitr
e format this micro-extraction provides a very efficient throughput an
d requires little sample manipulation.
