C8/SCX Column Plates for Solid Phase Extraction

The B&M® C8/SCX is a silica gel-based packing column with C8 and strong cation exchange SCX (C8/SCX) mixed in an optimal ratio to provide a dual containment mechanism in which the C8 functional group interacts with the hydrophobic analyte groups and the SCX functional group interacts with the protonated amino group. Due to such strong interactions, stronger wash conditions can be used to remove co-extracts that may interfere with UV detection or cause ion suppression in LC-MS. The steady-state phase is not capped, allowing for additional interactions between the residual silanol groups and the polar analytes, thereby contributing to improved retention.
Most suitable for purification of basic (cationic) or neutral compounds such as drugs and metabolites from aqueous solutions, urine and blood.
