Overview

Tobacco Analysis is an area that LEAP has lots of experience. These applications illustrates the power of LEAP’s unique control software to incorporate extended functionality to the PAL robot.

Some of what LEAP can do with the PAL for Tobacco Analysis…

• Multiple ways to filter samples[1]
• Overlapped staggered processing of all samples for higher throughput [2] [3]
• Twin PAL option for greater capacity and flexibility and a single sample list
• Multiple reagent reservoirs and large sample vial capacity
• Multiple heated zones for different temperature reactions
• Direct injection to LC or GC
• Balance integration for weighing of solid product and internal standard [4]
• Weight checking, over or under weight vials are skipped
• Barcode checking, mismatched vials are not processed
• Data reporting to log files
• GC fail safe mode – if GC goes down during a run, samples are still processed and stored for later analysis

• Agitation & Mixing

Specific example applications:

• Tobacco Filtration 96 well plate Example System

• Large Tobacco Sample Volume Filtration Example System

• Measuring nicotine partitioning from a tobacco smoke filter pad in an ammonia environment

• Prep and Inject a Plant Extract

• GC Headspace

• Multiple Headspace Extractions

• SPME

• HPLC Applications
