HPLC Separation of Inorganic Anions on Newcrom BH Column

October 23, 2019

HPLC Method for Sodium, Phosphate, Chloride, Bromide, Nitrate, Sulfate, Iodine, Perchlorate, Iodide on Newcrom BH by SIELC Technologies

High Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) Method for Analysis of Sodium, Phosphate, Chloride, Bromide, Nitrate, Sulfate, Iodine, Perchlorate, Iodide 

Sodium, which  has a chemical symbol of Na, is a soft alkali metal that is highly reactive.  It is found in abundance in everyday materials like table salt, sea water, and even the Earth’s crust. It is crucial  for the body’s function and fluid balance.

Phosphate, PO43-, is a compound that plays an important part in biological energy transfer. It contains phosphorus, which is also a key component in bones and teeth. It is also a buffer, which helps maintain pH levels in a body.

Chloride is typically used to refer to a compound or molecule that contains a chlorine anion: Cl. It is an electrolyte that is essential for bodily functions including blood pH, fluid balance, cellular functions, and more. Imbalance of chloride can indicate underlying health problems.

Bromide is typically used to refer to a compound or molecule that contains a bromide anion: Br. It is often found in anticonvulsants, flame-retardant materials, and cell stains.

Nitrate, NO3, is a compound of nitrogen and oxygen. It is essential as a nutrient in plants; therefore, it is often used in fertilizers. It is easily found in leafy greens. While it is important for cardiovascular health, too high of exposure to it can be dangerous.

Iodide, the Ionic form of Iodine, I is essential for thyroid hormone production. Lack of it can lead to iodine deficiency disorders. It is typically found in Iodized salt and occasionally as an antiseptic.

Sulfate is an ionic chemical with the formula SO42-. In nature, it is usually found in geodes like gypsum. It is also created in atmosphere from sulfur dioxide. It is used for a variety of applications, but most notably, coloring wood and creating light-reflecting paints.

Perchlorate is an inorganic compound with the formula ClO4. It is most typically used for explosives. For example, fireworks and rocket propellants. Due to it’s water solubility, it can easily contaminate it. When ingested, it can pose a health risk and cause developmental harm.

Sodium, Phosphate, Chloride, Bromide, Nitrate, Sulfate, Iodine, Perchlorate, Iodide can be retained and analyzed using the Newcrom BH stationary phase column. The analysis utilizes an isocratic method with a simple mobile phase consisting of water and acetonitrile (MeCN) with a Ammonium Acetate buffer. Detection is performed using CAD.

HPLC Analysis of Sulfate and Phosphate Ions on Primesep Columns

October 14, 2010


Inorganic and organic ions are usually analyzed by ion-exchange mechanism. In this application, we used short Primesep B2 and Primesep D mixed-mode HPLC columns to retain and separate phosphate and sulfate ions. Both ions are retained by ion-exchange mechanism. Detection technique for analysis of these anions is Evaporative Light-Scattering Detector (ELSD).

Application Column

Primesep B2

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.

HPLC Separation of Sulfamic and Sulfuric Acid on Primesep N HILIC Column

July 16, 2009

Sulfuric acid (sulfate ions) and sulfamic acid are analyzed in HILIC mode on Primesep N column. Both compounds are hydrophilic in nature and lack UV activity. Compounds are retained by hydrophilic interaction mechanism. Sulfate ion and sulfamic acid are monitored by ELSD. Method can be used for analysis of other inorganic ions.

Simultaneous Determination of Sodium and Sulfate Ions on Obelisc N Mixed-mode HILIC Column

July 16, 2009

Inorganic cations and anions are usually analyzed by two different methods – cation-exchange and anion-exchange. This requires development and validation of two methods. Both ions can be analyzed on mixed-mode HILIC column with ELSD detection. Both ions are retained by combination of HILIC and ion-exchange mechanism.

Condition

Column Obelisc N, 4.6×50 mm, 5 µm, 100A

Application Column

Obelisc N

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.

HPLC Separation of Sulfate and Phosphate Ions on Mixed-Mode HPLC

December 6, 2007

Sulfate and phosphate are separated on Primesep B2 and Primesep D column by anion-exchange mechanism. Because both sulfate and phosphate ions are not UV-active, ELSD is used to monitor separation of both anions. Method can be used to quantitate phosphate and sulfate in various pharmaceutical and chemical formulation, products and solution, drinking and ground water. Retention time is adjusted by increase or decrease of buffer concentrations. Two anions can be retained and separated on a very short column due to strong ion-exchange interaction. Method shows good reproducibility and versatility.
