PFAS OnePrep:
Automated PFAS Sample Preparation for Food
PFAS OnePrep sample preparation provides a fast, high-throughput, multi-channel solution for PFAS testing in food, fish, shellfish, meat, and other challenging solid and semi-solid matrices. As PFAS contamination in food continues to receive increased regulatory and analytical attention, laboratories need reliable PFAS sample preparation methods that provide high throughput, reproducibility, and accurate analytical results.
PFAS OnePrep sample preparation is designed to address the analytical challenges associated with per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS), particularly in complex, high-fat, and protein-rich food matrices. Conventional PFAS sample preparation typically requires multiple independent steps for extraction, cleanup, purification, and concentration. These separate steps increase labor, sample handling, turnaround time, and the potential for contamination or analyte loss.
The PFAS OnePrep™ platform combines pressurized heated extraction, matrix cleanup, PFAS purification, and concentration into a single integrated workflow. The multi-channel system processes 4 samples simultaneously and is expandable to 8 samples, providing high-throughput PFAS sample preparation for food, fish, shellfish, meat, and other solid and semi-solid samples.
How PFAS OnePrep Works
Samples undergo controlled pressurized heated extraction, followed by integrated matrix cleanup and PFAS purification. Extracts are processed through PFAS-Prep cartridges for matrix-specific cleanup and PFAS purification, followed by automated concentration for downstream LC-MS/MS analysis.
Because extraction, cleanup, purification, and concentration are integrated into one continuous workflow, there is no vial-to-vial sample transfer during processing. This reduces manual handling, potential PFAS contamination, analyte loss, and operator-related errors.
PFAS OnePrep sample preparation delivers PFAS-ready extracts in under two hours and enables laboratories to progress from food sample to PFAS results in approximately three hours. Automatic documentation and real-time graphs of pressure and temperature provide complete process monitoring and traceability for each extraction run.
For laboratories performing PFAS testing in food, PFAS OnePrep provides a streamlined, high-throughput approach to PFAS extraction and sample preparation for food, fish, shellfish, meat, and other solid and semi-solid matrices—helping laboratories reduce hands-on processing, improve reproducibility, minimize contamination risk, and shorten PFAS testing turnaround time.
