Systematically Optimizing Extraction

11 Jun 2013

This application describes the MV-10 ASFE System with ChromScope Software which makes analytical scale method development by SFE easy and productive. In this example, three
process variables across multiple vessel extractions were evaluated including
extraction time, temperature, and pressure in an automated manner.

MV-10 ASFE System

Waters

The Waters® MV-10 ASFE™ System is the first supercritical fluid extraction (SFE) system offering accelerated, multi-vessel sample extraction, resulting in a faster, greener, more selective alternative for analyte extractions from a wide variety of sample matrices. Whether your workflow requires enriching target analytes for analytical purposes, stripping unwanted material from a product, or collecting valuable essential oils from natural products, the MV-10 ASFE System is the most efficient extraction tool available. This system allows you to: •  Extract samples from up to 10 extraction vessels in a semi-automated fashion •  Accelerate throughput •  Lower operating costs compared to traditional hydrocarbon-based solvent extraction systems. •  Use a green alternative to normal phase solvents, supercritical CO2, which is non-toxic, non-flammable, and environmentally compatible. System features: •  Uses environmentally friendly CO2 instead of toxic organic solvents •  Improved extraction efficiency •  Better selectivity •  Increased speed •  Higher yield •  Reduced operating costs •  ChromScope™ Software makes routine analysis, reporting, and fraction collection easy with an intuitive user-friendly interface
