This application note describes the methods used to implement batch sample preparation using the Agilent 7696A Sample Prep WorkBench, which can save time and resources.
This document is an application note describing the benefits of batch-enabled sample preparation using the Agilent 7696A Sample Prep WorkBench. It compares the performance of batch mode against non-batch mode for a specific fatty acid esterification task. The text highlights that batch processing significantly reduces the total time required and the volume of wash solvent used compared to processing samples individually.
| Vial Heater Temperature | 80 °C |
|---|---|
| Wash Solvent Savings (6 samples) | Six-fold reduction |
| Time Savings (6 samples) | Approximately 50% |
The instrument performs sample preparation tasks for gas chromatographic (GC) or liquid chromatographic (LC) analyses.
The single vial heater is capable of reaching 80 °C.
Processing six samples using batch mode required a total of 2.55 mL of wash solvent.
