Even though teas are known for containing polyphenols such as catechins, flavonoids and theaflavins, SIELC mixed-mode columns can be used to analyze a matrix from a commercial tea and retain target compounds. In this method, green tea was spiked with 0.005mg/ml of pesticides previously found in teas. Primesep 200 was used for it’s reverse-phase and acidic ion-pairing groups. Target compounds were retained and resolved from the majority of the tea matrix peak.

Application Column
Primesep 200
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.
