5 Solid-Phase Extraction Strategies Retention-Cleanup-Elution Strategy As the sample is loaded onto the cartridge, the analytes of interest are retained by the sorbent. If needed, an optimized series of washes are used to remove matrix interference from the cartridge. A strong solvent is used to elute the analytes from the cartridge. Sample enrichment results when the final elution volume is smaller than the load volume. SPE Procedure Steps The following section describes the steps involved in a complete solid-phase extraction procedure: 1. Pretreatment Solid samples (soil, tissue, etc.) Stationary Phase Particles Load Sample (Black) Step Elute 1 Step Elute 2 Step Elute 3 NTE: Different strength solvents can be used to separate the dyes. Shake, sonicate, or use soxhlet extraction. - Extract sample with polar organic solvent (methanol, acetonitrile) for polar analytes. - Extract sample with organic solvent and drying agent (dichloromethane, acetone) for non-polar analytes and multi-residue extraction. Non-aqueous liquid If the sample is soluble in water, dilute it with water for reversed-phase SPE. ne cartridge can separate all three dyes If the sample is soluble in hexane, dilute it with hexane for SPE. Alternatively, evaporate the solvent and exchange to hexane. Pass-Through Cleanup Strategy Pass-through cleanup methods optimize matrix retention while the analytes of interest pass-through the cartridge unretained. No sample enrichment occurs during the solid-phase extraction (SPE) step. 1. Sample is passed through sorbent and collected. No sample enrichment. 2. Matrix interferences are retained on sorbent. Wastewater Filter or centrifuge as necessary. 2. Condition For reversed-phase sorbents, preconditioning of the sorbent with an organic solvent, such as methanol, acetonitrile, isopropanol, or tetrahydrofuran, is usually necessary to obtain reproducible results. Without this step, a highly aqueous solvent cannot penetrate the hydrophobic surface and wet the sorbent. Thus, only a small fraction of the sorbent surface area would be available for interaction with the analyte. For the same reason, it is important not to let silica-based SPE cartridges dry out between the solvation step and the addition of the sample. A complete preconditioning of a reversed-phase cartridge includes the solvation step and an equilibration with a low-strength solvent, such as water or buffer. Pass-Through [ 5 ]

6 Solid-Phase Extraction Strategies 3. Load When the analytes of interest are not retained by the sorbent, this is called analyte breakthrough. For some methods, such as pass-through cleanup, analyte breakthrough is desirable and is maximized for those specific methods. However, in all other cases, analyte breakthrough is unwanted and contributes to poor recovery and method reproducibility. Breakthrough occurs when: There is too high an organic concentration in the load solution for very polar analytes. Dilute sample at least 1:1 with water or buffer prior to loading. The analytes are bound to proteins, they may pass through the sorbent. Ensure that analytes are not bound to proteins by acidifying or basifying the sample. Sorbent is overloaded by the matrix component. Therefore, it is important to choose the correct sorbent mass (see Tables 1 and 2). The flow rate of the load step is too fast. There is not enough contact time between the analytes and the sorbent. Look at the drops and adjust the vacuum so that you see discrete droplets, not a stream of liquid. Table 1. Choice of asis Cartridges Based on Sample Size Sample Size asis Cartridge 1 1 ml 1 cc/3 mg or 3 cc/6 mg 4. Wash The wash steps are designed to remove unwanted matrix components that remain from the loading step. The ideal wash solvent removes only the matrix while keeping the analytes bound to the sorbent. For complex samples this is impossible, so the wash steps are optimized using ph, solvent strength, and solvent polarity to remove as much matrix as possible while maintaining acceptable analyte recovery. 5. Elute nce the interferences are washed off the cartridge, a strong solvent is introduced to elute the analytes of interest. The volume and flow rate of the eluting solvents should be precisely controlled as in the load step to ensure reproducible results. Refer to Table 3 for guidelines on various types of separation mechanisms and recommended solvents. Table 2.

16 Veterinary Drugs in Food Antibiotics are given to animals to prevent or treat diseases. When trace amounts of antibiotics show up in meat, milk, and other foods, there is concern of developing antibiotic-resistant strains of diseases. Some of the applications in this section cover antibiotics in certain foods that are banned outright. For example, the presence of chloramphenicol residue in honey would indicate the improper use the antibiotic in the bee keeping industry. ther applications in this section are for monitoring antibiotic residues for possible future regulation of their proper use.

38 Pesticides and Contaminants The presence of contaminants in food, such as pesticides, herbicides, illegally-added dyes, mycotoxins, and melamine, are a concern to regulatory bodies, public health agencies, and the public at large. Methods in this section cover: Sample pretreatment Sample preparation Instrumentation methods and results These methods meet, or exceed, the level of detection and quantitation required by government agencies. This section of the notebook also includes applications of multi-residue pesticides analysis by QuEChERS and other official methods. There are QuEChERS* application briefs on a variety of different commodities to show examples requiring: Different pretreatment requirements, i.e. soaking of dry commodities before the extraction procedure Alternative d-spe sorbent selection, i.e. for removing fats * For further details on this method, see Waters QuEChERS White Paper on our website (literature number en).

80 Amino Acids in Animal Feed Hydrolysates Amino acid analysis has been used in the food and feed industries to verify and characterize materials and processes. The total amino acid content, as well as the proportions of growth-limiting amino acids, is an essential characteristic of the nutritional value of feeds. Samples Swine diet, poultry diet, whole soybean, and soybean meal samples were acid-hydrolyzed in an independent laboratory as part of a collaborative study. The samples were supplied at an estimated concentration of 1. mg/ml in.1 M HCl and sealed under argon in ampoules. Samples were stored at -8 C until analysis. The standard was NIST 2389 Amino Acids in.1 mol/l HCl Reference Material, and it was diluted to 5, 1, and 25 pmol/μl. Sample Derivatization The samples were diluted 1:16 with.1 M HCl prior to derivatization. The standard derivatization protocol was modified to include neutralization of excess acid with.1 M NaH.

Tea leaves were standard consumer single serving products. The tea samples were between g. The tea leaves were extracted in 6 oz. of bottled water at an initial temperature of 72 C for 2 hours, unless otherwise specified. After a set period of time, the supernatant of the mixture was transferred to a separate vial. Extracted tea samples in water were stored at -2 C until analysis.
