HPLC Separation of Pesticides, Herbicides, Fungicides and Insecticides on Newcrom BH Column

May 22, 2020


Herbicides are used to control unwanted plants, they are also known as weedkillers. Insecticides are used to kill insects. Fungicides are used to kill parasitic fungi. Pesticide is a more generic term that includes herbicides, fungicides and insecticides in its definition. All are heavily used in agriculture. By using HPLC, many different pesticides can be separated and their retention characteristics controlled using the Newcrom BH mixed-mode column. It can be used with different organic media such as acetonitrile (ACN) or methanol (MeOH). By varying the concentration of organic modifier and using different buffers like sulfuric acid (H2SO4), ammonium formate (AmFm), or formic acid, separation of desired pesticides can be achieved.

Application Column

Newcrom BH

The Newcrom columns are a family of reverse-phase-based columns. Newcrom A, AH, B, and BH are all mixed-mode columns with either positive or negative ion-pairing groups attached to either short (25 Å) or long (100 Å) ligand chains. Newcrom R1 is a special reverse-phase column with low silanol activity.

Retention of the Herbicide Dicamba on Mixed-Mode HPLC Columns

September 14, 2015

 

Dicamba is an organochloride derivative of benzoic acid. It is used as a non-specific herbicide that is usually used on non-crop  plants. Dicamba is moderately toxic to humans, and both persistent and mobile in soils. The EURL (European Union Reference Laboratory) tested dicamba in an analysis of acidic pesticides. Primesep 100 and Obelisc R were used to separate dicamba with unique separation. Method is LC/MS compatible

Analyzing Compounds Dicamba

 

Application Column

Obelisc R

SIELC has developed the Obelisc™ columns, which are mixed-mode and utilize Liquid Separation Cell technology (LiSC™). These cost-effective columns are the first of their kind to be commercially available and can replace multiple HPLC columns, including reversed-phase (RP), AQ-type reversed-phase, polar-embedded group RP columns, normal-phase, cation-exchange, anion-exchange, ion-exclusion, and HILIC (Hydrophilic Interaction Liquid Chromatography) columns. By controlling just three orthogonal method parameters - buffer concentration, buffer pH, and organic modifier concentration - users can adjust the column properties with pinpoint precision to separate complex mixtures.

Select options

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.

Dicamba Analysis on Primesep and Obelisc Mixed-Mode HPLC Columns

August 24, 2015

 

Dicamba is a widely used herbicide. Dicamba mimics auxin, a plant growth hormone, increasing growth beyond the resource availability of the plant. The EURL (European Union Reference Laboratory) included a QuEChERS (Quick, Easy, Cheap, Rugged, and Safe) method for dicamba as a target pesticide for EUPT-SRM. Obelisc R and Primesep B2 were used to retain dicamba and separate it from impurities. Primesep B2 contains embedded basic ion-pairing groups while Obelisc R contains embedded ionic and hydrophobic groups which can assist in fine tuning separations. Method is LC/MS compatible and can be used as a general approach for analyzing dicamba, other auxin-like phenoxy acids, and dozens of other pesticides.
