| NEW HybridSPE-Precipitation (HybridSPE-PPT) Technology |
back to top |
| HybridSPE-PPT combines the simplicity of protein precipitation with the selectivity of Solid Phase Extraction (SPE) for the targeted removal of phospholipids and proteins in biological plasma/serum (Figure 1). The technology utilizes a patent pending zirconia-coated particle, and exhibits selective affinity towards phospholipids while remaining non-selective towards a range of basic, neutral and acidic compounds. The phospholipid retention mechanism is based on highly selective Lewis acid-base interaction between the proprietary zirconia ions (functionally bonded to the HybridSPE stationary phase) and the phosphate moiety consistent with all phospholipids (Figure 2). |

Ion-Suppression & Phospholipid Contamination
|
back to top |
| In pharmaceutical bioanalysis, researchers develop and run various assays to quantitate drugs, pharmaceutical candidates, and their metabolites in biological fluids such as serum and plasma. As analysts strive for faster analyses, shorter run times, and lower limits of detection, ion-suppression due to inadequate removal endogenous sample interferences has become of great concern. It is well documented that one of the principal causes of ion-suppression is phospholipid contamination. Not only is signal suppression often evident in the positive ion electrospray mode (+ESI), phospholipids can often remain on the analytical column after sample analysis, and elute uncontrollably in a given LC run sequence. |
