The Biotage ISOLUTE 101 is a solid phase extraction media consisting of an unmodified form of polystyrene divinylbenzene copolymer. Since its hydrophobic interactions are stronger than with ODS (C18) type media, it is possible to efficiently collect organic compounds with a wide range of hydrophobicities contained in water samples. In addition, as the column can easily be dried with nitrogen gas purge, the overall analysis time can be shortened which increases efficiency.

This application note describes a method for the extraction of pesticides from environmental water samples using ISOLUTE 101 solid phase extraction columns. The analytes in this application were simazine, thiobencarb and Thiuram (Thiram).
