-Phenomenex Introduces a New HPLC Column for Ionic Pesticide Analysis in Underivatized Food and Environmental Samples

The column’s proprietary phase allows for effective separation of anionic and cationic pesticides using a single column, rapid conditioning, and provides robust analysis.

TORRANCE, Calif., July 20, 2023 /PRNewswire/ — Phenomenex Inc., a world leader in research and manufacturing of advanced technologies for separation sciences, today announced the launch of the Luna Polar Pesticides HPLC column that features a proprietary phase that effectively separates cationic and anionic pesticides from food, feed, air, and water samples, rapidly conditioning, and provides robust pesti analysis. ionic acids.

The Luna Polar Pesticides HPLC column is designed to help solve the most common challenges food safety analysts face on a daily basis: robust analyte determination due to the complexity and polarity of the matrices, lengthy process due to the large number of injections required for column conditioning, time-consuming sample preparation due to the need for derivatization, and the need to use separate columns (and systems) to determine anionic and cationic pesticides from a sample.

The versatile selectivity of the Luna Polar Pesticides HPLC column allows for the separation of cationic and anionic pesticides from underivatized samples on the same column. The fully porous particle morphology of the column allows for high sample loading. Its unique selectivity provides high retention of polar analytes, rapid equilibration, can be used in positive and negative mode, and offers 100% organic and aqueous stability. The 100 Å particle pore size has proven optimal for pesticide analysis, and the 8% carbon loading provides a great balance of polar and nonpolar retention.

Collaborative studies conducted with renowned laboratories and experienced food analysts demonstrate the robustness and versatility of Luna Polar Pesticides. Dr. Giacomo Napolitano, Laboratory Manager at Lifeanalytics S.r.l., stated: “Luna Polar Pesticides significantly reduced analysis time thanks to their rapid rebalancing. This column has improved our analyzes of polar pesticides.”

The new Luna Polar Pesticides HPLC column is available in different sizes to fully adapt to the needs of analysts: 30 x 2.1 mm, 50 x 2.1 mm, 100 x 2.1 mm, 150 x 2.1 mm and 150 x 3.0 mm. The spine is compatible with the SecurityGuard™ ULTRA cartridge for spine protection.

Download Technical Note: Efficient approach for the reliable determination of non-derivative cationic and anionic pesticides.
