Application description
MCPA or (2-methyl-4-chlorophenoxyacetic acid is a powerful and selective phenoxy herbicide. It is used to control broadleaf weeds. It is also used in the chemical industry due to the ability to form conjugated complexes with metals. MCPA is hydrophobic and acidic and retains on Coresep 100 mixed-mode column by the combination of reversed-phase and anion-exclusion mechanisms. Retention time is controlled by the amount of ACN, buffer concentration and buffer pH. The method is suitable for analysis of various herbicides with LC/MS compatible conditions. Core-shell mixed-mode chromatography offers a synergy of unique selectivity of mixed-mode stationary phases and high efficiency of core-shell particles.
