Solid Phase Extraction Consumables

A rapid, effective, economical path to a clean extract

Solid phase extraction (SPE) is a sample preparation technique that chromatographers use to remove interfering compounds, concentrate the analyte, and/or extract the analyte in a preferred solvent prior to HPLC, GC, IC, or MS analysis.

Remove uncertainty and add consistency to your chromatographic results using Thermo Scientific solid phase extraction products. Our broad range of high performance SPE products:

  • Reduce the adverse effects of the sample matrix
  • Significantly improve the robustness, reproducibility, and sensitivity of chromatographic and mass spectrometry analytical results
