Before We Start….a word on Non-commercial Intent.
My goal is to present you with tools to remove some of the mystery surrounding SPE.
• Fact. It’s 2004. New SPE tools do exist. • Fact. Not every manufacturer sells them due to patents and
commercial concerns.• Fact. Phenomenex pays my mortgage, so…• Fact. I will use Phenomenex products in my examples, more
as a practical matter than a commercial matter.• Fact. It’s 2004….I can get sued if I speak too much “on the
record” about other competitors… thank the lawyers for that!
So please bear with me as I try to navigate the minefield !

Introduction to Solid Phase Extraction
What is “SPE” ?A “Sample Preparation” technique.
For our purposes Sample Preparation is“Manipulations performed to the sample, prior to analysis, that
are designed to facilitate chromatographic analysis.”

The REAL GOAL !
Introduction to Solid Phase Extraction
![Page 12: Demystifying Solid Phase Extraction for Toxicological ... · PDF fileDemystifying Solid Phase Extraction for Toxicological Analysis of Biological Samples ... SCX / SAX Non-Polar Polar](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022042800/5a73643e7f8b9aa7538e7dc3/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
HOW SPE WORKS
The sample is passed through a SPE device. Analyte(s) is retained onto the sorbent.
The contaminants are washed out of the tube.
Analyte is eluted from the tube.
Note: Step 1: Conditioning / Solvation omitted for visual simplicity.

What Type of Interactions?
SPE relies upon the same basic chromatographic retention mechanisms as
HPLC, GC and TLC.
Introduction to Solid Phase Extraction
![Page 14: Demystifying Solid Phase Extraction for Toxicological ... · PDF fileDemystifying Solid Phase Extraction for Toxicological Analysis of Biological Samples ... SCX / SAX Non-Polar Polar](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022042800/5a73643e7f8b9aa7538e7dc3/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
SPE and HPLC differ in the strength of the interactions between the analyte and the stationary phase.
– SPE: Strong interactions, 100% retention of analyte, or 100% elution.
– HPLC: Weaker partial interactions that allow each of the analytes todifferentially migrate along the length of the column.

Beware of The “Hidden” Strong Ion Exchangers
• Strata X-C: SCX on a aromatic resin.“For just about anything!”
• Strata Screen C: C8 + SCX“for screening of cationic compounds”
• Strata Screen A: C8 + SAX“for screening of anionic compounds”

Before we get too far: A Practical View
The most common Method Development Mistakes are1. Choosing the wrong SPE product ( sorbent or mass)2. Using the wrong solvents or volumes3. Not setting realistic goals for the sample prep.
Ie, Which is most important to your overall analysis?
– Absolute highest recovery ?– Greatest clean-up?
Typically some compromise is required.

Historical Information
• How do you extract now or in the past? Ie, Liquid/Liquid Data. • “Bases” = cationic amines • “Acids” = anionic organic acids• “Neutrals” = general non-polar structure
• Any SPE methods that did not work well? What did not work is almost as useful as knowing what did!

Classify the Matrix / Sample
• Liquid, Solid or Suspension?• Composition: Aqueous, Organic, Solids, Fatty.• Liquid: pH, Ionic strength• Solubility: Aqueous, Organic• Impurities and known interferences • Expected Concentration of Analyte:
= volume needed to extract to reach Method Detection Limit?
But that’s only ½ the Story!

Step 2. Choose Sorbent Chemistry
Mixed Mode sorbents should be classified by their
ion exchange group!
![Page 32: Demystifying Solid Phase Extraction for Toxicological ... · PDF fileDemystifying Solid Phase Extraction for Toxicological Analysis of Biological Samples ... SCX / SAX Non-Polar Polar](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022042800/5a73643e7f8b9aa7538e7dc3/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Step 3. Choose Sorbent Mass in Tube
Selection of the proper sorbent mass is critical:
• Not Enough Sorbent = Overloading = Sample BreakthroughOverloading results in Poor Irreproducible Recovery.
• Too Much Sorbent = Sufficient Capacity = Safe but Economically Undesirable.
Larger tubes more expensive, need more solvent and sometimes dirtier extracts.
![Page 33: Demystifying Solid Phase Extraction for Toxicological ... · PDF fileDemystifying Solid Phase Extraction for Toxicological Analysis of Biological Samples ... SCX / SAX Non-Polar Polar](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022042800/5a73643e7f8b9aa7538e7dc3/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
Step 3. Choose Sorbent Mass in Tube
FACT #1: The sorbent packed inside the tube performs the extraction .
FACT #2: Sorbent mass selection is NOT an exact science. Lots of matrix effects!
Si-based Sorbent Capacity: A Theoretical Approach:– Non-polar and polar sorbents: Equivalent to 5% of the sorbent mass.– Ion Exchange Sorbents: Typically from 0.5 to 1.0 milliequivalents per gram of
sorbent (meq / g ). Values are commonly reported by the manufacturer.
![Page 34: Demystifying Solid Phase Extraction for Toxicological ... · PDF fileDemystifying Solid Phase Extraction for Toxicological Analysis of Biological Samples ...

Biological:Blood, serum and plasma:
Resin (Strata X or X-C) 30 mg per 250 ul sampleSilica-based: 50 mg per 250 ul sample.
Urine: Resin (Strata X or X-C) 30 mg per 1 ml sampleSilica-based: 50 mg per 1 ml sample.
Filtered Tissue homogenates: 60 mg Resin or 100 mg Si-based per 100 mg tissue.
Summary: Be safe. Round Up.
Step 3. Choose Sorbent Mass in TubeSorbent Capacity: A Practical Approach
![Page 35: Demystifying Solid Phase Extraction for Toxicological ... · PDF fileDemystifying Solid Phase Extraction for Toxicological Analysis of Biological Samples ... SCX / SAX Non-Polar Polar](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022042800/5a73643e7f8b9aa7538e7dc3/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
For Example:
“How much sorbent do I need to extract a 500 ul plasma sample?”
For strata X: “ 30 mg per 250 ul sample”
2 x 30 mg = 60 mg strata X
For C18E: “50 mg packing per 250 ul sample”
2 x 50 mg = 100 mg C18E
Do the Math…. scale up or down as necessary.
Step 3. Choose Sorbent Mass in Tube
4. b) Sorbent Mass

Step 4. Choose Tube Format / Size.
• Typically the required sorbent mass is available in a limited number of tube sizes, or volumes. Choose the closest available mass.
• Remember: tube “size” in ml ( or cc) is of secondary importanceunless you have some hardware/robotic requirements. The sorbent does the work.

Introducing Secondary Interactions:
Primary Interaction = Strongest Interaction between analyte and sorbent.
Secondary Interaction = Weaker Interaction…
For ion exchangers: – Ionic = primary & very strong
– Hydrophobic = secondary & weaker… but still there.

Practical Suggestion: Ion Exchange Elution Solvents:
Because of Secondary Non-polar interactions.
• The MEOH + acid or base (98:2) may be the best choice.• Efficient Low volume elution.• Volatile.• Simple to make.
For Strata X-C: MeOH : Acetonitrile : NH4OH (sat.) (49:49:2)
Note: For X-C and Screen C mixed-mode ion exchangers… organic is a MUST!

First: Recall the Deficiencies of traditional SPE sorbents
• Residual silanol / uncontrolled secondary interactions (end capping
effect)
• pH limitations of base silica
• Base silica fragile: crushing = fines
•Lot to lot reproducibility
•Must keep “wet”after conditioning
• Narrow selectivity range: limited retention of polar metabolites
With that in mind…

Most Popular are: Styrene-divinyl benzene polymers modified by the addition of a “ polar”
functional group. N-vinylpyrrolidone.

Strata X and X-C Offer Three Primary Benefits Over Silica Based Sorbents.
1. Aromatic selectivity2. Worry-free processing. 3. Non-halogenated Elution Solvent
Plus:– Exceptional cleanup– Superior Lot to lot reproducibility
How does Strata X compare to traditional Si-based ?

In the Lab: Benefits of Strata X
• No need to use stopcocks with tubes
• Higher throughput. • Turn the vacuum on and leave it on!
• Worry-free automation. • Program vacuum and flow rates for the “slow flow” samples
• Super rugged / Super reproducible
• Best sorbents for 96-well plate SPE!
