Oasis HLB 12 cc Vac Cartridge, 500 mg Sorbent per Cartridge, 60 µm, 20/pk
Waters introduced the Oasis HLB series in 1996 to upgrade the manner in which scientists worked on Solid-Phase Extraction (SPE). The Oasis HLB was formed with a water-wettable copolymer which is stable over the entire 0-14 pH range. The extensive pH stability of the Oasis HLB has made it a gold standard in SPE for scientists around the globe.
The Oasis HLB is a multi-purpose, reverse-phase sorbent that can provide analyte specificity and increase sensitivity by using a mixed-mode oasis sorbent, which includes both reversed-phase and ion-exchange functionality for orthogonal sample preparation.
Regular solid-phase extraction methods require equilibration and condition steps to ensure sorbents can be prepared for sample introduction. The condition step is needed to wet the sorbent, allowing the liquid to enter the pores and enabling retention within the sorbent. Once the sorbent is wetted, it needs to be equilibrated with aqueous solution to prepare it for aqueous sample loading. As the Oasis HLB is a water-wettable sorbent, the analytes can interact with the sorbent and are retained when loaded directly in an aqueous sample solution. Thereby with the use of the Oasis HLB, you save overall time and resources in conducting your analysis as it eliminates the need for equilibration and condition steps; your overall average solvent consumption is reduced up to 70%, and overall sample preparation time is reduced by 40%.
As the Oasis HLB sorbent is water-wettable, it will maintain its capability for excellent recoveries and higher retention even if the sorbent dries out, which further saves your time as you don’t need to take any extra steps to keep the sorbent beds from drying out. These Oasis HLB 12 cc Vac Cartridges are filled with 500 mg of Oasis HLB sorbent; you can use them for extraction of a wide range of acidic, basic, and neutral compounds from various matrices using a generic protocol. The cartridge ships with 20 units to a package, and each of these Oasis HLB 12 cc Vac Cartridge supports particle size of 60 µm and pore size of 80 Å.

How Does The Principle of Mass Spectrometry Work?
Mass spectrometry (MS) operates on the fundamental principle of ion generation from both inorganic and organic compounds using various suitable methods. It further involves the separation of these ions based on their mass-to-charge ratio (m/z) and subsequent qualitative and quantitative detection of ions using their specific m/z values and relative abundance. This principle forms the basis of mass spectrometry, enabling the analysis and characterization of compounds across a wide range of applications. By leveraging the unique properties of ions, mass spectrometry provides invaluable insights into molecular structures, elemental compositions, and compound identification, facilitating advancements in fields such as chemistry, biology, medicine, and environmental science.
