A method of processing a sample comprising
- introducing a sample into a flow-through device containing a porous solid media therein, and
- thereafter subjecting the device to microwave energy.
A method of processing a sample comprising
- introducing a sample into a flow-through device containing a porous solid media therein and active components attached to said solid media, and
- thereafter subjecting the device to microwave energy, heat or UV energy in order to accelerate reactions implemented by said active components, said reactions resulting in a reaction product created from said sample.
A method of processing a sample comprising
- introducing reagents into a flow-through device containing a porous solid media therein and active components attached to said solid media,
- causing a synthesis reaction involving said reagents in said flow-through device and resulting in a reaction product,
- thereafter placing said flow-through device into an entrance region within a chromatography column, and
- thereafter carrying out chromatography on said reaction product.
A chromatography sample module comprising
- a flow-through member having an inlet and an outlet, and
- a chromatography media prepacked within said flow-through member, treated with a sample dissolved in a solution, and dried, resulting in a dried sample on said chromatography media, said chromatography media being spaced from said inlet, so that said flow-through member defines a receiving region adapted to receiving a head piece for making a seal with said flow-through member,
- said chromatography media including attached active components.
A chromatography sample module comprising a tubular member that is sized to fit entirely within the end of a chromatography column containing a separation media carrying a sample, said module having an inlet and an outlet, and chromatography media within said tubular member and spaced from said inlet, so that said tubular member defines a receiving region adapted to receive a head piece, said tubular member sized to be sealed within said chromatography column with a sealing device used to seal said chromatography column,
- said chromatography media including attached active components.
A chromatography sample module comprising
- a flow-through member having walls and having an inlet end and an outlet end;
- a media disposed within said flow-through member, said media being spaced from said inlet end so that said walls extend above said media and so that said flow-through member defines a receiving region adapted to receive a head piece;
- and
- a sample carried on said media,
- said chromatography media including attached active components.
A method of processing a sample comprising
- introducing a sample into a flow-through device containing a porous solid media therein, and
- thereafter subjecting the device to a radiated energy source.
A method of processing a sample comprising
- introducing a sample into a flow-through device containing a porous solid media therein and active components attached to said solid media, and
- thereafter subjecting the device to energy in order to accelerate or promote reactions implemented by said active components, said reactions resulting in a reaction product created from said sample.
A method of processing a sample comprising
- introducing a sample into a flow-through device containing a porous solid media therein and active components attached to said solid media, said device having a liquid receiving region above said media,
- carrying out a reaction on said sample using said active components, and
- adding wash solvent to said liquid receiving region.
A method of processing a sample comprising
- introducing reagents into a flow-through device containing a porous solid media therein and active components attached to said solid media,
- causing a chemical reaction involving said reagents in said flow-through device and resulting in a reaction product,
- thereafter placing said flow-through device into fluid flow communication with a chromatography column, and
- thereafter carrying out chromatography on said reaction product.
A sample processing module comprising
- a tubular flow-through member that is sized to fit entirely within the end of a chromatography column containing a separation media carrying a sample, said module having an inlet and an outlet, and media within said tubular member, said chromatography media including attached active components.
A chromatography sample module comprising
- a flow-through member having walls and having an inlet end and an outlet end;
- a media disposed within said flow-through member;
- and
- a sample within said flow through member,
- said media including attached active components.
