8270 Sorbent Disk

Item No.:

  • LP-8270SorbentDisk-47-20
  • LP-8270SorbentDisk-47-60

CDS Empore™ 8270 Extraction Disks are designed for the analysis of semivolatile organic compounds (SVOCs) in aqueous samples in accordance with U.S. EPA Method 8270E. CDS Analytical has manufactured and distributed the product since 2019 as the owner of the Empore™ brand. The particle-loaded PTFE membrane supports high flow rates, straightforward reverse elution, and shorter drying times than conventional SPE cartridges.

Compliant with EPA methods:

  • EPA Method 8270E (SPE according to supplemental Method 3535)

Suitable for:

  • Quantitative extraction of more than 125 neutral, acidic, and basic SVOCs from water
  • Wastewater, drinking-water, groundwater, and leachate analysis
  • Compound classes including PAHs, phthalate esters, organophosphate esters, nitrosamines, chlorinated hydrocarbons, pesticides, haloethers, anilines, pyridines, quinolines, nitroaromatics, and phenols
  • Laboratories using EPA-compliant SVOC workflows with reduced solvent consumption

Recommended Workflow

For optimal recovery across the full SVOC range, use the 8270 Disk in a combined disk stack with two Empore™ Activated Carbon Disks:

  • 8270 Disk on top — retains the target SVOCs
  • 2 × Activated Carbon Disks below — capture polar and reactive compounds

After loading the acidified water sample, dry the stack, invert it, and perform reverse elution: first with DCM/methanol for the acidic/neutral fraction, followed by DCM/methanolic ammonia for the basic fraction.
