Moderate Hydrophobic Selectivity Solid Phase Extraction (SPE)
C18 sorbent with no end-capping, giving the phase moderate hydrophobic selectivity with slight polar selectivity due to the active silanol groups.
Phenomenex: Strata C18-U SPE
- Surface Area (m²/g): 500
- Separation Mode: Reversed Phase
- Pore Size: 70
- Particle Size: 55
- Recommended Use: Enhanced cleanup of hydrophobic compounds that contain hydroxy or amine functional groups
Starting Method
Strata Reversed Phase
- Condition: 1 mL Methanol
- Equilibrate: 1 mL DI Water
- Load: Pretreated sample
- Wash: 1 mL 5% Methanol in DI Water, dry under vacuum for 2-5 min
- Elute: 1 mL Methanol
Based on 100 mg/1 mL sorbent mass. The above is a convenient starting point for SPE method development, further optimization may be required to tailor the method for your specific extraction needs.
