Re-collect 10 is ideal for laboratories needing to:

- Save and replicate single samples for repeat analysis

- Automate the creation of multiple standard tubes

- Reduce solvent loading onto tubes without compromising spiking precision

- Create pooled QC samples prior to analysis

- Stabilise samples onto solid sorbents.

Automation, accuracy, stability and repeatability

Re-collect 10 automates the time-consuming task of spiking multiple tubes with liquid standards, reducing the process for ten standards from up to 2 hours down to just 10–15 minutes. By optimising solvent management, it enhances accuracy, minimises purge time, and extends analyte range while reducing solvent waste and the associated costs.

Suitable for all sample types, including air, breath, biological samples, and solid samples like food, Re-collect 10 stabilizes samples on solid sorbents for longer storage and shipping without refrigeration.

Advantages of Re-collect 10

The most important benefits of Re-collect 10 are:

1. Increased productivity – With Re-collect 10, you can streamline and automate the off-line generation of up to ten sample replicates or standard tubes off-line, freeing up your TD–GC–MS system to carry out analysis.

2. Cost savings – Re-collect 10 can operate with nitrogen carrier gas, removing reliance on more costly helium. When used to replicate samples, you only need one sample, reducing transportation costs. And when used to create multiple standards, you only need one tube (spiked with a higher-concentration standard), reducing standard use and cost.

3. Reduced solvent consumption – With Re-collect 10, you can spike and purge just one tube with a solvent-borne standard, instead of ten individual tubes. Alternatively, you can spike and purge one tube with a gas-phase standard, and eliminate solvent use completely.

4. Increased accuracy – Loading a single tube with a higher volume of standard is easier and more accurate than loading ten tubes with smaller volumes (for example, 1 × 1 μL rather than 10 × 0.1 μL), which also reduces the risk of human error.

5. Easy quality control – For complex and variable samples, Re-collect 10 allows you to blend multiple samples to create pooled QC tubes. These can then be distributed throughout the sequence, enabling batch correction and highlighting any need for instrument maintenance.

6. Simple operation – You can install Re-collect 10 yourself, and it’s easy to use the on-board controls to set multiple temperature parameters.

Pooled QC for untargeted metabolomics

In untargeted metabolomics and extended analytical sequences, using an accurate and representative standard for quality control is essential. However, off-the-shelf standards are unlikely to be truly representative and will not contain matrix components, so it is best practice for QC protocols in such applications to pool the samples.

Re-collect 10 simplifies the blending of multiple samples to create pooled QC samples, ensuring accurate and representative quality control throughout the analytical sequence. This enables the assessment of data quality, batch correction, monitoring of analytical system performance, and timely instrument maintenance.
