Separation type: Liquid Chromatography Mixed-mode
High Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) Method for Analysis of Pseudoephedrine and Fexofenadine
Pseudoephedrine is one of the most popular decongestant drugs on the market (in part due to its efficacy and in part due to its status as an amphetamine). Fexofenadine is a common antihistamine used to treat hives, itching, and hay fever. Pseudoephedrine and Fexofenadine can be separated, retained, and analyzed on a Primesep 100 mixed-mode column using an isocratic analytical method with a simple mobile phase of water, Acetonitrile (MeCN), and a sulfuric acid (H2SO4) buffer. This analysis method can be UV detected at 200 nm with high resolution and peak symmetry.

Application Column
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.
