Phenomenex Strata Phenyl Solid Phase Extraction (SPE)

Retention of Aromatic Compounds

A short alkyl chain with a phenyl group provides moderate hydrophobic selectivity and aromatic selectivity through π−π interactions.

Phenomenex: Strata Phenyl

• Surface Area (m²/g): 500
• Separation Mode: Reversed Phase
• Pore size: 70
• Particle Size: 55
• Recommended Use: Extraction of aromatic and hydrophobic compounds

Starting Method

Strata Reversed Phase

• Condition: 1 mL Methanol
• Equilibrate: 1 mL DI Water
• Load: Pretreated sample
• Wash: 1 mL 5% Methanol in DI Water, dry under vacuum for 2-5 min
• Elute: 1 mL Methanol

Based on 100 mg/1 mL sorbent mass. The above is a convenient starting point for SPE method development, further optimization may be required to tailor the method for your specific extraction needs.
