Lecture 6 Sample preparation
Blood Samples: Blood: arterial capillary venous Composition of blood plasma Blood serum is blood plasma without fibrinogen or the other clotting factors (i.e., whole blood minus both the cells and the clotting factors)
Blood Samples: Anticoagulants: lithium heparin sodium heparin NaF sodium citrate EDTA Serum: no anticoagulant Plasma: centrifugation with anticoagulant present Blood cells: erythrocytes
Urine 20-50 mL Stomach content 25 -50 mL Tissue Hair, nails 2-5 g if possible Many of options in postmortem work
OrganicCompounds Sampling Solid Optional protein precipitation Homogenize in buffer Liquid Optional protein precipitation • Isolation • Single step liquid-liquid extraction • Multiple step liquid-liquid extraction • Solid phase extraction • (pre)concentration DATA COLLECTION Data processing and interpretation
Air/gas sampling canisters bags Cleaned Polyurethane Foam (PUF) Cartridges and Resins
Headspace vial Caps & septa
Microdiffusion (Conway) cell Preconcentration of volatile compounds
Liqiud phase microextraction (LPME) A 1 mL drop at the end of a syringe needle. A simple device for headspace LPME. Stirring and thermostating are optional.
Filters: Can be also used for Solid Phase Extraction
Various sorption techniques: centrifuge positive pressure
SPE extraction: Lots of junk removed!
