See full text

The present invention relates to laboratory instruments, in particular to instruments for automated preparation of liquid samples like Solid Phase Extraction (SPE), Supported Liquid Extraction (SLE) or liquid-liquid extraction (LLE). The instrument reduces the risk of cross-contamination between sample collection containers by lifting the sample collection containers to the level of the outlet of the sample processing containers, or slightly above. The instrument further comprises a movable table positioning the liquid collection containers directly beneath said sample processing containers and a waste collection container directly beneath the sample processing containers, wherein said waste collection container is vertically movable from a position below the movable table to a position above the movable table.
