Waters
The Definitive Handbook Enlightens and Teaches Chemistry Students and Professors, Separations Scientists and Analytical Chemists
Milford, Mass. – January 23, 2013 – Waters Corporation (NYSE:WAT) has published an all-new 212-page Beginner’s Guide to Solid Phase Extraction (SPE). Authored by noted instructor Joe Arsenault with more than 35-years of experience in SPE, the handbook is an indispensable learning tool for scientists and technicians who want to add to their skill set and put the power of solid phase extraction immediately to work in their analytical laboratory. This compilation of invaluable advice is liberally illustrated with more than 150 easy-to-understand diagrams, schematics and tables and teaches chemists how to:
• Remove interferences that needlessly contaminate analytical columns and foul mass spectrometers
• Reduce ion suppression in mass spectrometers and improve signal strength
• Fractionate samples and analyze compounds by class
• Measure very low levels of analytes by performing trace concentration enrichment
