    GlossarySolid-Phase Extraction

    method to isolate specific compounds from a mixture

    Solid-Phase Extraction (SPE) is a method used in laboratories to separate and concentrate specific compounds from a mixture. It involves passing a liquid sample through a solid material (the "solid phase") that selectively adsorbs the target compounds, allowing impurities to be washed away. This technique is widely used in fields like environmental testing, pharmaceuticals, and biochemistry for sample preparation and purification.
