Raptor EtG/EtS: All Matrix Interferences Resolved

articleBanner

How often are matrix interferences affecting your EtG/EtS analysis? Restek’s EtG/EtS solution consistently resolves analytes away from matrix interferences in a fast, 4-minute, dilute-and-shoot method.

  • Proven performance for accurate, reliable ethyl glucuronide (EtG) and ethyl sulfate (EtS) analysis.
  • Strong retention consistently resolves analytes from matrix interferences.
  • Long column lifetime ensures consistent performance injection after injection.
  • Fast, 4-minute, dilute-and-shoot LC-MS/MS analysis supports high sample throughput.

Switch to a Raptor EtG/EtS column when you need consistent resolution of EtG and EtS from matrix interferences and long column lifetimes.

Definitive Results for Alcohol Monitoring

Restek has developed a new Raptor column that significantly improves EtG and EtS analysis for alcohol monitoring programs. The Raptor EtG/EtS column consistently retains and resolves these important biomarkers from matrix interferences, providing accurate, reliable results injection after injection (Figure 1). Dependable performance, a fast 4-minute analysis, and long column lifetime make this column ideal for high-throughput labs. Paired with our quality reference standards and the optimized, verified method shown below, Restek’s Raptor EtG/EtS column is part of a complete solution that will help testing labs save time and increase certainty.

Figure 1: Rugged Raptor EtG/EtS columns provide complete resolution and consistent results even after 1000 injections, allowing more samples to be analyzed between column changes.

Diluent:0.1% Formic acid in water
Conc.: A 500 ng/mL QC sample was prepared in urine. 50 µL of the sample was diluted with 950 µL of a working internal standard (25 ng/mL EtS-d5/100 ng/mL EtG-d5 in 0.1% formic acid in water). The sample was vortexed at 3500 rpm for 10 seconds to mix. The sample was then centrifuged at 3000 rpm for 5 minutes at 10 °C. The autosampler needle was adjusted to inject from the supernatant.
