The Solid Phase Extraction System Has Been A Delight In Science

By Christine Evans


Over the years, the population of the earth is rising, and with it, is also the increase of diseases that are harmful to mankind. The increase can be blamed to the rising of novelty viruses. Due to the high demand of products by mankind, manufacturing companies are being forced to utilize artificial ingredients in the making of their products to hasten supplication of such products. The improper disposal of the hazardous ingredients with the combination of current viruses from nature, diseases became powerful to withstand scientific remedies. Fortunately, doctors and inventors collaborated to invent a way to keep up with the increase. The invention of the solid phase extraction system is the way for these collaborators to go up against the alarming viral discoveries.

For scientists, and pharmacologist to counter the birth, and rebirth of viruses, they would have to break up the compounds of contaminated liquids. This system allows doctors to separate each compound according to the physical and chemical properties of it. This process will lead to the extraction of samples, storage and preservation, field sampling, and as a biometric indicator.

An SPE device is a convenience for scientist due to its capability of being portable. Samples that easily degrade can be taken on the site of interest. The device also brings the scientist confidence that its storage is reliable in preserving said samples. This convenience has greatly helped doctors to gather samples from areas where medical facilities are scarce.

SPE devices have multiple types. A scientist can determine the proper device for the desired application would depend on the volume of the sample, degree of contamination, complexity of sample matrix, quantity of compounds of interest, and type and solvent strength of sample matrix. However, there are three ways that a scientist can separate compounds of interest from impurities using a certain SPE device. Each method depends on the scheme one needs that is appropriate for the sample gathering. Below are those three processes.

The selective extraction method. Using an SPE sorbent that would bind the selected compounds of the sample, the compounds are retained when it passes through the tube. One can either choose to collect the adsorbed compounds or discard the tube containing extracted impurities.

The selective washing method. When the sample passes through, the compound of interests and impurities are retained on the SPE packing. The impurities are then rinsed with wash solutions that are capable or removing them, and will leave the compound behind.

Selective elution methodology. With the usage of another sorbent, the adsorbed composite is to undergo elution. The strong retention of impurities will have such impurities left behind.

The capability of this system to pinpoint biometric indicators has become very useful for scientists. The DNA extraction service being offered by this device can also be used by crime investigators to determine a suspect. Since each one has different biometrics, solving crimes has less complicated.

The world being crowded has contributed to the rising of new diseases that are artificially formed, and the invigoration of existing diseases that were naturally formed. However, this has also contributed in the drive of scientists to invent scientific solutions to these problems. The common people can also contribute to counter the birth and rebirth of new diseases. People can boycott of products from manufacturers that uses harmful products for production.
