Phenomenex Strata X-A Solid Phase Extraction (SPE)

Strong Anion Mixed-Mode Solid Phase Extraction (SPE)

A strong anion-exchange functionalized polymeric sorbent that allows for complete retention of weakly acidic compounds with a pKa greater than 2, making 100% organic wash conditions possible. A 100% organic wash ensures that the maximum amount of interferences are removed from the target compound.

Phenomenex: Strata-X-A SPE

• Recommended Use: Extraction of weakly acidic compounds

Starting Method

For Acids with pKa > 2

• Column: 1 mL Methanol
• Equilibrate: 1 mL Water, pH 6-7
• Load: Diluted Sample pH 6-7
• Wash 1: 1 mL 25 mM Ammonium Acetate Buffered, pH 6-7
• Wash 2: 1 mL Methanol (collect this fraction to analyze Neutral/Bases)
• Elute Acid: 2x 500 µL 5 % Formic Acid in Methanol

Phenomenex: Strata X single tube

Based on 30 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.
