1 Zebron MultiResidue GC Columns A New Generation of Columns for Pesticide Analysis

2 MultiResidue Optimized for pesticide, herbicide and insecticide analysis The use of many pesticides has been limited or discontinued due to the health and environmental risks they pose. However, the persistence of these compounds in the environment has left many sites heavily contaminated and in need of remediation. There is also international concern for the residual level of pesticides in foods, especially those imported from countries where banned pesticides are still permitted. Though the standard method for pesticide testing varies throughout the world, many labs use Electron Capture Detectors (ECD), Nitrogen Phosphorous Detectors (NPD) or Flame Photometric Detectors (FPD) because of the sensitivity level they offer for specific compound classes. While these detectors are extremely sensitive, they do not provide spectral confirmation of the analyte. In order to provide positive confirmation, Mass Spectrometry (MS) must be used. The GC/MS can be used in Selected Ion Monitoring (SIM) mode to provide sensitivity levels similar to the previously mentioned detectors, while also providing positive confirmation of the analyte in question. Regardless of the technique, the new MultiResidue GC columns have been optimized for pesticides, herbicide, or insecticide analysis. Each column has a unique selectivity that allows them to be used together in dual column confirmation analysis. Both phases are MS Certified, so they can also be used on MS to confirm results. We have run a number of pesticide compounds on these phases. If you don t find the application you are looking for in this brochure, be sure to contact your local Phenomenex representative.

4 MultiResidue A New Generation of Columns for Pesticide Analysis Optimized Selectivity Many pesticide compounds have very similar structures or have isomers that are present in the product. Zebron MultiResidue phases were developed to provide optimum selectivity for a variety of pesticide compounds. Every analysis is unique, but we can help you determine the best phase to use in order to resolve your pesticide sample.

The columns are made using an extremely stable siloxanebased polymer that contains absolutely no cyano functionality. Our Engineered Self Crosslinking (ESC) bonding process makes both columns MS certified, allowing for unmatched spectral integrity even for low-level samples.

5 Low Column Activity Many pesticides are sensitive to system activity and readily breakdown. This can be a significant problem when working with low level samples and sensitive detectors such as ECD. Zebron MultiResidue columns have been completely deactivated and provide excellent peak shape for even the most active compounds.

It doesn t matter if it s an Agilent, Thermo Finnigan, Shimadzu, or Perkin Elmer GC or GC/MS system, Zebron columns provide reliable results every time. App ID: min min Tunable Selectivity Zebron MultiResidue GC columns were developed specifically for pesticide analysis. Their unique selectivity improves the separation of all classes of pesticides, herbicides, and insecticides. Since the columns are MS Certified, samples can be prescreened using analyte specific detectors, and then confirmed using MS.

7 Baseline Resolution of all 0 EPA 0A s Chlorinated Pesticides! The US EPA regulates the testing of 0 specific chlorinated pesticides under the official Method 0A. The method specifies an Electron Capture Detector (ECD), which is extremely sensitive for chlorinated compounds. However, it does not provide any confirmatory information about the peak. To reduce the occurrence of misidentifications, the method requires the use of two GC columns of dissimilar selectivity in a parallel configuration. The EPA considers an analyte s presence confirmed if it has a peak at the pre-determined retention time on both columns. The unique selectivity of Zebron MultiResidue columns allows for baseline resolution (R s >.) of all compounds with two elution order changes between the columns!

10 MultiResidue Multi-Pesticide Residue Testing by GC/MS Pesticides are widely used by farmers to control pests, weeds and molds that would otherwise decrease crop production. While this has significantly increased worldwide food productions, these same pesticides pose significant health and environmental risks. The restrictions for specific pesticides differ from one country to the next. As world trade increases, the potential threat to other countries populations increases. This is especially true in the European Union, where produce can be transported from one country to another quite easily. For this reason, pesticides are the subject of increasing regulation. Since many different types of pesticides can be used on the same food product, multiple residue screening approaches are used to test for more than 00 compounds. Gas Chromatography (GC) is still the most common test method for the majority of pesticide classes. While ECD or NPD may be used for screening, MS detection must be employed to provide positive confirmation. Zebron MultiResidue columns are well suited for use on all types of detectors. They provide very low bleed levels even at elevated temperatures required to remove matrix contamination during high temperature bake outs. When used in conjunction with a screening method that uses an analyte specific detector such as ECD, Zebron and MR- columns can be a powerful tool in identifying positive samples. 0

The performance of a GC system will degrade over time requiring inlet maintenance, column trimming, and ultimately the replacement of the GC column. In order to accurately determine what your column lifetime will be it s better to ask yourself the question: What makes your columns fail? Is it bleed, activity, or poor resolution? The better the column performance for that criteria initially will usually lead to better overall performance in the long term. Zebron MultiResidue columns provide the lowest activity, best resolution, and overall most stable performance of any pair of columns designed specifically for pesticide testing.

17 DIN Method : Polychlorinated Biphenyls Separation Resolving Critical Isomers Polychlorinated Biphenyls (PCBs) are a class of priority environmental pollutants that have been identified for international regulation. The similarity in structure and polarity makes the resolution of certain isomers challenging on standard phases. German law requires separation of specific PCB congeners under DIN Method. The unique selectivity offered by Zebron MulitResidue columns makes them a versatile solution for many applications outside of pesticide analysis.

18 MultiResidue Ordering Information Choose the Best Column Set for Your Needs We know every lab is different and we want to help make choosing the right GC column easy. Zebron MultiResidue columns are available in a variety of formats to meet your lab s needs. 0. mm ID Provides the overall best resolution, lowest bleed, and greatest sensitivity. Recommended when using GC/MS or when needing the lowest detection levels possible. Does not handle highly contaminated samples well, column lifetime might be reduced. Resolution Stability Sensitivity Bleed Low High 0. mm ID Good compromise between resolution and column stability. Recommended when working with dual column setups where high level samples will be encountered. Works well on newer MS systems. High flow rates decrease residence time in the inlet. Low Resolution Stability Sensitivity Bleed High 0. mm ID Recommended when working with highly contaminated samples. Good for screening instruments. Resolution and sensitivity will be slightly reduced when compared to 0. or 0. mm ID columns. However, Zebron MultiResidue phases have very high selectivity for pesticides. Thus, resolution will be greater than other phases recommended for this work.
