HPLC Analysis of Fentin on Obelisc and Primesep Mixed-Mode Columns

 

Fentin is a fungicide made up of three aromatic groups on a tin atom. A single residue method was developed using QuEChERS (Quick, Easy, Cheap, Effective, Rugged, and Safe) method, to be used by EURL (European Union Reference Laboratory). Fentin was analyzed on a 3 micron Primesep 100 and Obelisc R column. Primesep 100 retains using embedded acidic ion-paring groups, while Obelisc R retains using multiple ionic-pairing groups and a long hydrophobic chain. Method is LC/MS compatible and same conditions can be used to separate many different pesticides.

Application Column

Obelisc R

SIELC has developed the Obelisc™ columns, which are mixed-mode and utilize Liquid Separation Cell technology (LiSC™). These cost-effective columns are the first of their kind to be commercially available and can replace multiple HPLC columns, including reversed-phase (RP), AQ-type reversed-phase, polar-embedded group RP columns, normal-phase, cation-exchange, anion-exchange, ion-exclusion, and HILIC (Hydrophilic Interaction Liquid Chromatography) columns. By controlling just three orthogonal method parameters - buffer concentration, buffer pH, and organic modifier concentration - users can adjust the column properties with pinpoint precision to separate complex mixtures.

Primesep 100

The Primesep family of mixed-mode columns offers a wide variety of stationary phases, boasting unprecedented selectivity in the separation of a broad array of chemical compounds across multiple applications. Corresponding Primesep guard columns, available with all stationary phases, do not require holders. SIELC provides a method development service available to all customers.
