Matrix
Sample(s)

mix of compounds each 1 µg/mL water - methanol (1:4, v/v)

For an extraction from well water we recommend SPE appl. no. 305920

Conditions

Binary Gradient System Eluent A: water - methanol - 25 mmol/L ammonium acetate pH 4.0 (75:15:10, v/v/v) Eluent B: methanol - 25 mmol/L ammonium acetate pH 4.0 (90:10, v/v) Gradient: 0 % B to 100 % B in 40 min, hold for 10 min Flow rate: 0.300 mL/min

Ternary Gradient System (alternative eluent system achieving same chomatogramms) Eluent A: water Eluent B: methanol Eluent C: 25 mmol/L ammonium acetate pH 4.0 Total Flow: 0.300 mL/min Gradient: 15 % B to 80 % B in 40 min, hold for 10 min at a flow rate of 0.27 mL/min, Eluent C is added constant at a flow rate of 0.03 mL/min over the hole analysis

Temperature: 40 °C Injection volume: 25 µL

Detection
UV, 210 nm, 230 nm, 254 nm, 360 nm
Note
The chromatographic results illustrate that each of the column combinations has advantages in the separation of different classes of explosives due to the combined selectivities. Especially, a separation of the 19 analytes described by EPA 8330B in a single run is made possible by the combination of the columns NUCLEOSHELL RP 18 and PFP. If the respective explosives categories are supplemented by other analytes such as degradation products, the results shown are good starting conditions for further optimizations. More information about the analysis of trace residues of explosive materials following the guidelines set out in USEPA method 8330B and DIN EN ISO 22478 can be found in the selected MN application note 02/2017!
