Event Overview:


When analyzing complex soil and water samples for organochlorine pesticides, coextracted matrix components can contaminate the inlet and column, forcing analysts to take instruments offline for time-consuming, unplanned maintenance. Effective sample extract cleanup is the key to keeping your instruments running and generating accurate, reliable data. Pass-through SPE using Florisil cartridges (eg, EPA Method 3620) is a common cleanup technique, but Resprep FL + CarboPrep Plus SPE cartridges (Resprep FL+CPP) —which contain both Florisil and carbon in a dual-bed, single-cartridge format—provide a much more effective cleanup. Better cleanup means that columns last longer and instruments stay running, which increases sample throughput and lab profitability.

Key Learning Objectives:

  • Learn how adding carbon can improve the cleanup of soil and water samples
  • See how this improved cleanup improves the data collected
  • Realize the reduction in routine maintenance from running cleaner extracts

Who should attend:

  • Lab directors, scientists, analysts, and technicians interested in pesticide analysis in soil and water samples and GC lab users interested in reducing GC downtime and improving lab throughput
