Practical Essentials of Solid-Phase Micro-Extraction (SPME)

Event Information

This live,
instructor-led training course teaches how to use SPME as an automated sample
preparation technique for GC & GC-MS / HPLC & LC-MS in great detail.

The course
explains the theory behind Solid-Phase Micro-Extraction (SPME), how to modify
samples to improve results, how to create SPME methods, analyse samples and the
parameters which can be optimised.

This course will
cover Headspace-SPME and Immersion-SPME, SPME phases, SPME instrumentation
& set up, maintenance and troubleshooting. It will introduce related
techniques like SBSE, SPE-TD and SPDE.

Delegates will
learn the individual steps and processes of analysis and the various parameters
that can be optimised to improve method robustness and sensitivity.

The course also
teaches how to maintain each technique on an instrument, along with the
maintenance and troubleshooting problems commonly encountered.

Delegates will
learn the tips & tricks of the technique and the benefits of using SPE in
the analysis of their samples.

The training is
universal, applicable to all makes and models of instrumentation.

This course has
been approved by the Royal Society of Chemistry (RSC) for purposes of
Continuing Professional Development (CPD).

This course is
taught live in a virtual classroom and offers a fully interactive experience,
with instrument parts and consumables to see. Delegates can ask live questions;
either by using their microphone or by typing into the Q&A or chat boxes.

Duration: 3.25
hours.

Scheduled course price: £162.50 + VAT per
