CEM Corporation produces instruments that are intended for use in testing laboratories and applications only where such use is permitted under applicable state/country law.
Procedure1. Homogenize, mill, or cryomill the sample. Assemble the Q-Cup® with the Q-Disc®. Layer the M2 Q-Disc (textured side up) on top of the C9 Q-Disc.2. Weigh the sorbent into the Q-Cup. Spread evenly across the base of the Q-Cup by gentle tapping.3. Weigh the sample into the Q-Cup layering the sample on top of the sorbent. No mixing is required.
