A complete, practical guide to peptide desalting with Empore™ C18 StageTips — from sample acidification through elution — with troubleshooting tips and best practices for maximizing peptide recovery. Authors: CDS Empore™ Technical Team Introduction Peptide desalting is one of the most critical — and most underappreciated — steps in any bottom-up proteomics workflow. After enzymatic digestion, your peptide sample typically contains salts, buffers, urea, detergents, or other re

Authors: Xiaohui Zhang, Guotao Lu, Michael Apsokardu A validated EPA Method 8270E workflow using the CDS Empore™ 8270 Disk extracts 125 semi-volatile organic compounds (SVOCs) from 250 mL water samples spiked at 20 µg/L. Most compounds achieved recovery greater than 75% with RSD below 15% (n=3), making the workflow a versatile, regulator-compliant option for wastewater detection laboratories operating under EPA 8270E and SW-846 Method 3535.
