initialism: MEPS
https://doi.org/10.1351/goldbook.11554

Solid-phase extraction using a syringe with a short sorbent bed located between the plunger and the needle.

Notes:
  1. Typically based on a \(\pu{100 \upmu\!L}\) or \(\pu{250 \upmu\!L}\) volume syringe with a packed bed containing \(\pu{1\!{–}\! 2 mg}\) of sorbent.
  2. The MEPS syringe facilitates low-dead volume sample processing by vertical movement of the plunger.
