Beschreibung

Hinweis zur Analyse

QuEChERS is a common method used for extraction of pesticide residues from dry botanicals. The resulting extracts are often very high in background, requiring a rigorous cleanup prior to analysis. The standard SPE cleanup approach uses a dual layer cartridge containing graphitized carbon (GCB) and PSA. In this application, Supelclean^™ Ultra 2400 was used for SPE cleanup of chamomile extracts. Supelclean Ultra offers several advantages over the standard cartridge: (1) smaller size and thus less solvent usage, (2) does not require the use of toluene for elution, and (3) better recovery of pesticides with planar structures.

Sonstige Hinweise

Clean-up process:
Cartridge: Top 3 mL Supelclean Ultra 2400 SPE cartridge (54281-U) with ~0.10 g anhydrous sodium sulfate
Condition: 3 mL of acetonitrile
Load: 750 μL of QuEChERS extract
Elute: using 8 mL of acetonitrile containing 0.5% formic acid, apply slight vacuum at end if needed.
Collect eluent in glass or plastic centrifuge tubes (glass preferred)
Concentrate: all eluent extracts in water bath at 45-50°C w/3 psi nitrogen purge to ~50-100 μL.
