The present invention provides a well-less filtration device that includes
a pre-filter layer; a support layer; and at least one layer of solid
phase extraction medium disposed between the pre-filter layer and the
support layer. At least a portion of the pre-filter layer, support layer
and solid phase extraction medium are ultrasonically welded together to
form a pattern of filter cells and land areas with the land areas being
disposed between the filter cells. The filter cells of the device may be
arranged to conform to a standardized array format.
