Tecan RESOLVEX A200 positive pressure workstation for LC-MS sample prep

Tecan has unveiled the automated RESOLVEX A200 positive pressure workstation for LC-MS sample prep. The walkaway system expands Tecan’s portfolio of MS sample preparation workstations and smart consumables, allowing the company to provide complete solutions to match any workflow — from manual processing to semiautomated high-throughput systems based on a Freedom EVO or Fluent platform.

The product offers unattended positive pressure solid phase extraction, providing increased walkaway times for LC-MS sample preparation workflows. Said to be lighter and smaller than previous systems, it has been carefully designed to offer ease of use and enhanced performance. Eight-channel dispensing delivers a three-fold increase in speed compared to single-channel dispensing, according to the company, and the intuitive touch-screen control enables straightforward integration into laboratory protocols for immediate productivity.

The system is compatible with Tecan’s range of 96-well plate and column format smart consumables, including narrow-bore extraction columns that transform an extraction column into a reaction vessel.
