Solid Phase Extraction (SPE) is so reliable…said no one ever! Although there are many tips, tricks and recommendations to overcome common challenges with SPE, one solution lies within the structure of products used to carry out this method. In this episode of LCGC’s Dedicated Dialogue, James Edwards from Porvair Sciences introduces SPE, its evolution and its future with insights from a manufacturing and product development perspective on SPE for sample preparation workflows can be improved and make life easier in the lab for researchers.

James Edwards, an Application Scientist and Chromatographer at Porvair Sciences, discusses the challenges and advancements in solid-phase extraction (SPE) as a sample preparation technique for chromatography.
