Welcome to the December issue of EVISA's Speciation Newsletter !
With this issue at the end of the year we continue our series of "brief summaries" facilitating the access to information about major topics in speciation analysis. While most of the speciation analytical methods are based on the use of hyphenated techniques such as HPLC-ICP-MS, CE-ICP-MS or GC-ICP-MS, also other mainly atomic spectrometric techniques are used (ICP-AES, AFS and HG-AAS). For species separation not only chromatography and electrophoresis is used but also modern non-chromatographic methods (see the brief summary: Non-chromatographic separation techniques for speciation analysis).
As starting pages providing access to more specific information we have now added two pages on "Liquid-liquid extraction in speciation analysis" and "Solid-phase extraction in speciation analysis". As all "Brief summaries" these pages give access to a wealth of information both to EVISA resources as well as external sources. As all pages on the EVISA platform, brief summaries are frequently updated and kept topical.
We thank you all for your interest and your fidelity and we hope that we can meet your expectation also during
the next year.
We wish you a Merry Christmas and a Happy and Prosperous Year 2017
Your EVISA team

NEWS
|
|
|
EVISA is keeping you updated with what is going on in speciation analysis. In this section you will find news about the most current research results, about trends, legal issues and informations from manufacturers in the field of speciation analysis.
With all the links to further information and publications the News archive is a valuable collection of "hot topics" in speciation analysis. We continuously update even former news with new links and information so that all news are actual all the time.
Solid-phase extraction in speciation analysis
Solid phase extraction (SPE) is the most common and widespread separation method used for analyte enrichment, matrix removal and medium exchange.

Liquid-liquid extraction in speciation analysis
Since most of the elemental detection methods are based on atomic spectrometry or elemental mass spectrometry, they do not provide any species related information. Using these techniques for speciation analysis, species separation has to performed before by a selective separation technique. For simple binary speciation or preliminary fractionation, liquid-liquid extraction can serve such purpose.
