Description

• General description: LiChrosolv® solvents exhibit high degree of UV transmittance, low particle count, low acidity and alkalinity and low evaporation residue level. This makes them suitable for reproducible separations.
• Application: Intended for U/HPLC and LC-MS/MS applications.[1]Also reported for use as a component of extraction mixture in screening drugs of abuse in urine samples by GC-MS.[2]
• Features and Benefits: suitability tested and specified for UHPLC-MS and UHPLC-UV: for analytical flexibilityspecified quality in positive and negative electrospray ionization (ESI) and atmospheric-pressure chemical ionization-mass spectrometry (APCI-MS) for lowest detection limits and confidence in analyses in all important MS modes (test 1)—ESI/APCI (+) < 2 ppb—ESI/APCI (-) < 10 ppblowest impurity profile: for interference-free baselines (test 2)microfiltered through 0.2 μm filter (test 3) to provide:—a long lifespan to filters and mechanical parts of HPLC systems—reduced risk of column cloggingpackaged in borosilicate glass bottles for minimized contamination with metal ionslowest levels of trace metal impurities to minimize metal ion adduct formation—<5ppblowest level of polyethylene glycol (PEG) impurities in UHPLC-MS solvent lineup (PEG S/N signal-to-noise-ratio < 50)
