In the full analytical testing workflow, sample preparation may seem basic and trivial, yet it is a critical step. This stage not only takes up the majority of time in the entire analytical workflow, but is also the primary source of measurement error –every single operation directly determines the accuracy and reliability of the final data.
The specially designated “Sample Treatment & General Laboratory Equipment Exhibition Area “at analytica China 2026 will be featured in Halls N2 and N3 of the Shanghai New International Expo Centre, showcasing a full range of cutting-edge solutions including crushing and grinding, extraction, separation and purification, concentration and drying, digestion, etc., providing a high-quality platform for technological innovation display and end-user matchmaking.
At the end of 2025, the Ministry of Ecology and Environment released seven analytical methods. Among them, some of the new standards adopt direct solid sampling technology, which eliminates the complex steps of traditional digestion pretreatment, significantly simplifies the sample preparation process, shortens analysis time, and avoids reagent consumption and cross-contamination risks. The release of these new standards reflects the industry's urgent need for simplified pretreatment and improved testing efficiency.
As requirements for testing quality and efficiency continues to rise in fields such as food safety, environmental monitoring, biomedicine, clinical diagnostics, and materials science, new sample preparation technologies are emerging rapidly. The industry is accelerating its evolution toward automation, high throughput, online coupling, miniaturization & microfluidics, workstation integration, and green and sustainable practices.
