However, traditional SPME fiber technology has some significant drawbacks, including poor mechanical stability and a small phase volume.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The PAL Smart SPME Arrow system is a revolutionary change in microextraction that combines exceptional robustness with faster extraction times and trace-level sensitivity (Table I). In contrast to traditional SPME fibers, SPME Arrows contain significantly more phase volume, which allows more target analyte to be extracted in less time. In addition, the stainless-steel construction, unique Arrow tip, inner stabilizing rod, and outer sheath design fully protect the phase, minimizing both mechanical damage and analyte loss during sample transfer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Table I:<\/strong>&nbsp;Comparing Restek PAL SPME Arrow to Traditional SPME Fiber (Headspace Technique)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table is-style-stripes\"><table class=\"has-fixed-layout\"><tbody><tr><td>&nbsp;<\/td><td><strong>Traditional Fibers<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>1.1 mm Arrow<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>1.5 mm Arrow<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>The Arrow Advantage<\/strong><\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>Rugged, stainless-steel construction<\/strong> Protective sheath Stabilizing inner rod Arrow-shaped tip<\/td><td>No<\/td><td>Yes<\/td><td>Yes<\/td><td><strong>Longer lifetimes:<\/strong>&nbsp;Arrow construction protects the phase and minimizes both damage and analyte loss. <br><br><strong>Less downtime<\/strong>&nbsp;due to breakage. <br><br><strong>Eliminates septa coring.<\/strong> &nbsp;<\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>Surface area<\/strong><\/td><td>9.4 mm<sup>2<\/sup><\/td><td>44 mm<sup>2<\/sup><\/td><td>63 mm<sup>2<\/sup><\/td><td>Increase sample throughput\u2014higher surface area lets you reduce extraction time and&nbsp;<strong>analyze more samples per shift.<\/strong><\/td><\/tr><tr><td><strong>Phase (PDMS) volume<\/strong><\/td><td>0.6 \u03bcL<\/td><td>3.8 \u03bcL<\/td><td>12 \u03bcL<\/td><td>With significantly more phase, SPME Arrow provides better sensitivity so you can&nbsp;<strong>lower detection limits with confidence.<\/strong><\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">On Target: Longer Lifetime<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>One of the main drawbacks to SPME fibers is their fragility. Even during routine use, they are easily damaged and can be irreparably broken (Figure 1). Busy labs will benefit greatly from the reliability of the rugged Restek PAL Smart SPME Arrow. The unique, stainless-steel Arrow design includes a robust inner stabilizing rod that resists bending and breakage as well as an outer sheath that protects the phase coating and prevents both physical damage and analyte loss. Typically, SPME Arrows perform well for hundreds of extractions, lasting two to three times longer than traditional SPME fibers. In addition, the unique arrow-shaped tip pierces the septum cleanly and with little resistance, extending septum lifetime (Figure 2).<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-custom-chromatogram-article-top\"><div class=\"chromatogram-article-placeholder\"><div class=\"figure-heading\"><strong>Figure 1:<\/strong>\u00a0SPME fibers break easily during routine operation.<\/div><div class='chromatogram-article-inner-full'><div class=\"chromatogram-article-inner\">\n<style>.kb-image43820_86806f-a7 .kb-image-has-overlay:after{opacity:0.3;}<\/style>\n<div class=\"wp-block-kadence-image kb-image43820_86806f-a7\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"642\" src=\"https:\/\/discover.restek.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/figure-article-GNSS2642E-01-1024x642.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"kb-img wp-image-23218\" title=\"-\" srcset=\"https:\/\/discover.restek.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/figure-article-GNSS2642E-01-1024x642.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/discover.restek.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/figure-article-GNSS2642E-01-300x188.jpg 300w, https:\/\/discover.restek.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/figure-article-GNSS2642E-01-768x481.jpg 768w, https:\/\/discover.restek.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/figure-article-GNSS2642E-01-1536x963.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/discover.restek.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/figure-article-GNSS2642E-01.jpg 1800w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-custom-chromatogram-article-top\"><div class=\"chromatogram-article-placeholder\"><div class=\"figure-heading\"><strong>Figure 2:<\/strong>\u00a0The rugged construction of the Restek PAL SPME Arrow prevents breakage under normal use.<\/div><div class='chromatogram-article-inner-full'><div class=\"chromatogram-article-inner\">\n<style>.kb-image43820_1300d5-05 .kb-image-has-overlay:after{opacity:0.3;}<\/style>\n<div class=\"wp-block-kadence-image kb-image43820_1300d5-05\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"642\" src=\"https:\/\/discover.restek.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/figure-article-GNSS2642E-02-1024x642.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"kb-img wp-image-23224\" title=\"-\" srcset=\"https:\/\/discover.restek.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/figure-article-GNSS2642E-02-1024x642.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/discover.restek.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/figure-article-GNSS2642E-02-300x188.jpg 300w, https:\/\/discover.restek.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/figure-article-GNSS2642E-02-768x481.jpg 768w, https:\/\/discover.restek.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/figure-article-GNSS2642E-02-1536x963.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/discover.restek.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/figure-article-GNSS2642E-02.jpg 1800w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Which Restek PAL SPME Arrow is best for my application?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Restek PAL Smart SPME Arrows are suitable for a wide range of analyte chemistries and sample matrices.
