GL Sciences MonoTrap™, available from Hichrom Limited, is a new generation tool for sorptive extraction of volatile and non-volatile components of interest to the perfume, food and beverage, forensic, toxicology, environmental and other industries.

Conventional media for sampling generally exhibit low surface area and thin polymer coatings, which may lead to poor recovery and the need for prolonged extraction times. MonoTrap™ is based on state-of-the-art silica monolith technology. It has a large surface area due to the pores within the silica skeleton, whilst the through-pores reduce the resistance to flow. The result is a media that requires no pre-conditioning, exhibits fast adsorption and extraction and offers complete desorption using only small solvent volumes. A range of application notes are currently available.
