Separation type: Liquid Chromatography Mixed-mode
High Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) Method for Analysis of Metribuzin.
Metribuzin is a pre- and post- emergence herbicide on the EURL (European Union Reference Laboratory) Target Pesticide List for the EUPT-CF9 2015 (European Union Proficiency Test for Cereals and Feeding stuff). Metribuzin disrupts photosynthesis in plants growing near food crops such as potatoes, tomatoes and sugar came. Obelisc R and Primesep 100 were used to retain Metribuzin using multiple modes of separation. Obelisc R contains a long hydrophobic chain and ion-pairing groups, while Primesep 100 contains embedded acidic ion-pairing groups. Method is LC/MS compatible and can be used with similar conditions to retain many 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.
