FirstIgnite is supporting the commercialization of Florida International University’s new fabric phase sorptive extraction (FPSE) media technology. This media is used for analyzing trace and ultra-trace levels of organic analytes in various sample matrices. Its benefits include the ability to sample and prepare analytes without matrix modification or pre-treatment, flexibility for sampling and testing in different environments, specificity for various analytes due to the availability of a wide range of sorbent chemistries, and part per quadrillion (ppq) level sensitivity for both polar and medium polar analytes.

The FPSE media technology has a broad range of applications in different fields, including sampling and sample preparation of analytes with forensics, toxicology, national security, public health, environment, food, bio-analysis, clinical, and pharmaceuticals. The global sample preparation market was worth $7.7 billion in 2022 and is projected to grow to $11.2 billion by 2028.

Florida International University’s FPSE media technology is ready for collaboration (licensing, partnerships, industry feedback, etc.). Is your company the right fit?
