AutoTwister
Fully automated SBSE / Twister® workflow for solvent free „green” extraction seamless automation
Achieve full automation of your Twister® workflow from sample to analysis report, eliminating manual steps and increasing efficiency.
Simplest possible process:
- Add your sample to a vial, seal it with a screw cap, and place it in the MultiPurpose Sampler MPS tray.
- The MPS inserts the designated AutoTwister rod into the sample.
- The vial is transferred to the quickMIX module for high-energy agitation and analyte extraction.
- Matrix residue is rinsed from the AutoTwister rod in the dedicated Wash & Dry station.
- The AutoTwister rod is quickly dried through high speed rotation in the drying station.
- The MPS transfers the AutoTwister Rod to the TDU 2 for thermal desorption and GC-MS analysis.
