Abstract: A device for separating analytes is disclosed. The device has a sample injector, sample injection needle, sample reservoir container in communication with the sample injector, chromatography column downstream of the sample injector, and fluid conduits connecting the sample injector and the column. The interior surfaces of the fluid conduits, sample injector, sample reservoir container, and column form a flow path having wetted surfaces. A portion of the wetted surfaces of the flow path are coated with an alkylsilyl coating that is inert to at least one of the analytes. The alkylsilyl coating has the Formula I: R1, R2, R3, R4, R5, and R6 are each independently selected from (C1-C6)alkoxy, —NH(C1-C6)alkyl, —N((C1-C6)alkyl)2, OH, ORA, and halo. RA represents a point of attachment to the interior surfaces of the fluidic system. At least one of R1, R2, R3, R4, R5, and R6 is ORA. X is (C1-C20)alkyl, —O[(CH2)2O]1-20—, —(C1-C10)[NH(CO)NH(C1-C10)]1-20—, or —(C1-C10)[alkylphenyl(C1-C10)alkyl]1-20-.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to the determination of pesticides, e.g., polar pesticides, in a sample using chromatography. The present disclosure can provide direct analysis of polar pesticides, including anionic polar pesticides, using high performance liquid chromatography. The polar pesticides are sufficiently retained and resolved to allow for multiple polar pesticide determinations in a single analysis.
