Phosphamidon is an organophosphate insecticide commercially available as 70% Z-isomer and 30% E-isomer. It is highly toxic to mammals, and is classified by the World Health Organization to be extremely hazardous (Ia), with an oral lethal dose of less than 5mg/kg of bodyweight. The EURL included phosphamidon as a target pesticide for the EUPT-CF9. Primesep B2 and Obelisc R were used to retain phosphamidon and separate it from impurities. Primesep B2 contains embedded basic ion-pairing groups and Obelisc R contains embedded ionic and hydrophobic groups which can assist in fine tuning separations. Method is LC/MS compatible and can be used as a general approach for analyzing phosphamidon, other organophosphate insecticides, and dozens of other pesticides.

Application Column
Obelisc R
SIELC has developed the mixed-mode Obelisc™ columns to be the first commercially available columns with Liquid Separation Cell technology (LiSC™). This cost effective duo can replace multiple HPLC columns such as 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 B2
The Primesep family of mixed-mode columns offer a wide variety of stationary phases with an unprecedented selectivity in the separation of a broad array of chemical compounds and in multiple applications. Corresponding Primesep guard columns are available with all stationary phases and do not require holders. SIELC offers a method development service which is available for all customers.
