Experimental

HPLC Method

Column:

Symmetry C18, 3.9 x 150 mm, 5 μm

Part number:

WAT046970

Mobile phase A:

10 mM phosphate pH 6.8

Mobile phase B:

Methanol

Flow rate:

1.0 mL/min

Injection volume:

100 μL

Sample:

10 g potting soil extracted with 25 mL acetonitrile; then SPE on Oasis HLB

Detection:

Gradient

Gradient.

Soil samples (5 g) were spiked with the appropriate compounds and extracted with 25 mL of acetonitrile (30 minutes on shaker). A 5 mL aliquot of the acetonitrile extract was diluted to 100 mL with reagent water (MilliQ) and then processed by SPE.
