5 CLP Pesticides B-0447 March 8, 2001 AREAS OF FOCUS Injector Detector Column (including guard column)

6 CLP Pesticides B-0447 March 8, 2001 TRACE ANALYSIS INJECTION TECHNIQUES 5-2000 pg On-Column Megabore direct Splitless PTV On-Column (cold & hot) Large volume

7 CLP Pesticides B-0447 March 8, 2001 SAMPLE INJECTION Goals Introduce sample into the column Reproducible No efficiency losses Representative of sample

8 CLP Pesticides B-0447 March 8, 2001 Short Concentrated Long Diffuse Solute Bands Same column, same chromatographic conditions INFLUENCE OF INJECTION EFFICIENCY

9 CLP Pesticides B-0447 March 8, 2001 FIRST, SOME BASIC DEFINITIONS: Regarding Inlets Backflash Discrimination

10 CLP Pesticides B-0447 March 8, 2001 A FEW WORDS ABOUT BACKFLASH Definition: In a vaporization injection, a phenomenon wherein a portion of the sample expands beyond the boundary of the injection port liner towards the septum face and incoming gas line

11 CLP Pesticides B-0447 March 8, 2001 BACKFLASH Effects Ghost peaks Erratic quantitation Poor accuracy

12 CLP Pesticides B-0447 March 8, 2001 BACKFLASH Causes Highly volatile solvent Excessive inlet temperature Excessive injection volume Small liner volume

13 CLP Pesticides B-0447 March 8, 2001 BACKFLASH Preventative Measures Lower inlet temperature Less volatile solvent 1-2 µL injection volume Chambered liner Using pulsed split or pulsed splitless

14 CLP Pesticides B-0447 March 8, 2001 Yes NO!!! INJECTION PORT LINERS Splitless

15 CLP Pesticides B-0447 March 8, 2001 INLET DISCRIMINATION Injected sample  Sample into the column Due to compound volatility differences Higher volatility = More into the column

16 CLP Pesticides B-0447 March 8, 2001 INLET DISCRIMINATION In Pesticide Analyses Generally inlet discrimination is not a concern for pesticide analyses when utilizing appropriate GC inlets such as Splitless, Pulsed Splitless and PTV

17 CLP Pesticides B-0447 March 8, 2001 OTHER INLET CONSIDERATIONS Silylation Using glass wool Cleaning and reusing liners

18 CLP Pesticides B-0447 March 8, 2001 A FEW WORDS ABOUT RESIDUES Semivolatile vs nonvolatile Worst offenders Sample prep

19 CLP Pesticides B-0447 March 8, 2001 GUARD COLUMNS Use 0.53mm Or 0.32mm ID Deactivated Tubing Fit all inlets Enhanced deposition of residues Easy to work with Minimum 1 meter

20 CLP Pesticides B-0447 March 8, 2001 Usually 1-5 meters long and same diameter as the column Detector Deactivated Fused Silica Tubing Union Column Injector GUARD COLUMN Traps non-volatile sample residues

21 CLP Pesticides B-0447 March 8, 2001 COLUMN CONNECTORS Thermal Mass, Inertness, Seal Integrity Stainless steel VU-Tight Press-fits Integral guard columns (Duraguard)

22 CLP Pesticides B-0447 March 8, 2001 Let’s Be Sensitive ANALYTE DETECTION

23 CLP Pesticides B-0447 March 8, 2001 The minimum amount of an analyte that can still be confidently identified as a peak (S/N > 4) SENSITIVITY Analytical Definition

24 CLP Pesticides B-0447 March 8, 2001 SENSITIVITY Analytical Definition Detector Sensitivity: No sample influence (standard) Method Sensitivity: Matrix influence (sample)

25 CLP Pesticides B-0447 March 8, 2001 N S N S x "Normal" response 1. High noise, detector, background 2. Absorption, breakdown of analyte 3. Sample prep losses "Improved" response 1.

29 CLP Pesticides B-0447 March 8, 2001 LETS GET TO THE CHROMATOGRAPHY

30 CLP Pesticides B-0447 March 8, 2001 WHAT EXACTLY ARE WE TRYING TO ACHIEVE The best resolution possible Minimize analysis time Get MDLs as low as possible

31 CLP Pesticides B-0447 March 8, 2001 RESOLUTION VS SEPARATION Separation: Time between the 2 peaks Resolution: Describes how well 2 peaks are separated with regard to their widths

33 CLP Pesticides B-0447 March 8, 2001 101112131415 101112131415 11.24 12.72 11.6111.14 Better Separation  = 1.17 R s = 0.6 Better Resolution  = 1.05 R s = 2.7 K = 7.00K = 6.07 K = 6.00K = 6.30 RESOLUTION VS SEPARATION

34 CLP Pesticides B-0447 March 8, 2001 RESOLUTION AND ANALYSIS TIME Improving resolution often results in the opportunity to shorten analysis times Many variables can affect resolution

35 CLP Pesticides B-0447 March 8, 2001 N=  (L, r c ) k =  (T, d f, r c )  =  (T, phase) R Nk k s = 41 1                 RESOLUTION

36 CLP Pesticides B-0447 March 8, 2001 The column must provide sufficient retention of the early eluting compounds without excessive retention of the late eluting compounds IMPROVING RESOLUTION Retention

37 CLP Pesticides B-0447 March 8, 2001 IMPROVING RESOLUTION Film Thickness Decreasing Film Thickness Results In: Increased efficiency Elution of analytes at lower temperatures Decreased analysis time Decreased bleed interference Increased column activity Decreased capacity

38 CLP Pesticides B-0447 March 8, 2001 IMPROVING RESOLUTION Efficiency High column efficiency is necessary to resolve large numbers of compounds Improperly operated injectors and/or improperly optimized carrier gas can result in efficiency losses

39 CLP Pesticides B-0447 March 8, 2001 IMPROVING RESOLUTION Column Length Increasing Column Length Results In: Increased efficiency Increased analysis time Increased bleed Big increase in cost

40 CLP Pesticides B-0447 March 8, 2001 IMPROVING RESOLUTION Column Inner Diameter Decreasing Column Inner Diameter Results In: Increased efficiency Increased head pressure Decreased capacity Decreased carrier gas flow rates

41 CLP Pesticides B-0447 March 8, 2001 IMPROVING RESOLUTION Stationary Phase Stationary phase selectivity has the largest impact on separation, thus resolution Optimization of stationary phase selectivity should be approached cautiously
