ASMS 2025 - Streamlined Analysis of Polar and Non-Polar Metabolites in Plasma Using Automated Micro-SPE LC/MS
This poster presents two use cases for streamlined lipid profiling in plasma using automated Micro Solid Phase Extraction (μSPE). Where the workflows on NIST (SRM 1950) plasma samples was tested, with spiked internal standard (Ultimate SPLASH ONE) and optimized the extraction and elution parameters. Briefly, it focused on two cartridge sorbent types Mixed-Mode Cation Exchange (MCX) and C18 (CEC) and showcased their usage.

ASMS 2025 - Fully Automated Workflow for Volatile PFAS Analysis in Food Contact Materials Using GC-Triple Quadrupole
Gas Chromatography coupled with Triple Quadrupole Mass Spectrometry (GC/TQ) offers a robust and sensitive method for
detecting volatile PFAS. However, manual sample preparation could pose a bottleneck, impacting lab productivity. This study presents a robust and fully automated method using the PAL3 platform with GC/TQ for quantifying more than 30 volatile PFAS in FCMs, such as paper coffee cups. The automation approach minimizes human error, improving reliability
and reproducibility for routine analysis and safety assessments of PFAS in FCMs.

Advantages of automated and miniaturized uSPE clean-up in pesticides residues analysis
Recent developments in pesticides analysis extend the well-established methods to higher productivity and reliability while minimizing consumption and exposition to harmful chemicals. A workflow was developed that allows automatic preparation of calibration standards, automatic sample dilution, and automatic clean-up of sample extracts on one instrument, showing that miniaturized automated solutions are reducing errors, improving analytical consistency and protecting the environment in one convenient approach.

High-Sensitivity PFAS Determination in Seafood
This application note showcases a fully automated workflow for the precise quantification of 73 PFAS in seafood. Utilizing a PAL RTC autosampler and Agilent triple quadrupole LC/MS system (LC/TQ), the method automates calibration, QuEChERS extraction, and μSPE clean-up.
Analysis of Highly Polar Pesticides
Micro-SPE (uSPE) emerged as an automated green micromethod for sample preparation and clean-up in food safety, proteomics, forensic, environmental and analysis since more than ten years. Applications are wideranging and cover drugs, environmental contaminants, and, in particular, the extract clean-up in multiresidue pesticide analysis. The automation of the uSPE sample preparation steps led to the desired standardization of the applied sorbent materials for extract clean-up for the large variety of food commodities, an increase in sample throughput, and the welcome potential for offline and online hyphenation with GC/MS, LC/MS or even IC analysis.
How to use PAL Method Composer
Walk away QuEChERS extracts clean-up
See this detailed video of the uSPE workflow for the clean-up of raw pesticides extract. The PAL uSPE Cartridge is operated in scavenger mode eluting the pesticides in a clean extract. The matrix is kept on the sorbent material. The cleaned extract can be injected without waiting time online for LC/MS or GC/MS analysis. All samples are treated on the same time axis for highest reliability.
