AC Extraction Plate™ with Freedom EVO® and Touch Tools™ from Tecan
20 Oct 2014
Tecan’s AC Extraction Plate™, which is based on proprietary TICE™ (Tecan Immobilized Coating Extraction) technology, is a revolutionary, automationfriendly solution designed to streamline sample preparation for LC-MS analysis of small molecules. The AC Extraction Plate™ requires fewer and easier steps than with SPE and SLE (supported liquid extraction) comparable plate based technology. Most importantly, with the AC Extraction Plate™ there is no need for filtration, centrifugation or evaporation and sample preparation can be easily automated.

AC Extraction Plate™
TecanThe Tecan AC Extraction Plate* with TICE™ (Tecan Immobilized Coating Extraction) technology revolutionizes your sample preparation routine. The AC Extraction Plate is a 96-well, deep-well microplate, with each well having a proprietary TICE™ coating. TICE is a material with distinct absorptive properties, and this coating efficiently extracts specific small molecule analytes from aqueous solutions, releasing them when in contact with a suitable organic solvent. A simple pipette and shake sequence, with no filtration, centrifugation or solvent evaporation, is all that is required. The AC Extraction Plate is easily integrated into automated processes, making it a perfect match with Tecan’s Freedom EVO® liquid handling platform. AC Extraction Plate™ Features: Cost-effective – Simple pipette and shake workflow, without labor intensive centrifugation, filtration and solvent evaporation steps. Convenient and fast – Just unpack and start, no conditioning or other preparations needed. Highly reproducible – Pipette and shake routines are easily standardized and automated on a liquid handling platform, eliminating random errors and increasing consistency of results. * For research use only – not for clinical diagnostic applications
