Agilent ZORBAX StableBond SB-C18 LC Column Application Note for Oxycodone Analysis
This document details a method for analyzing oxycodone and its oxidation metabolites (noroxycodone, oxymorphone, noroxymorphone) in human plasma. The method combines high-speed liquid chromatography with mass spectrometry detection using an Agilent ZORBAX Rapid Resolution High Throughput StableBond SB-C18 column.
The procedure involves solid-phase extraction of spiked human plasma samples followed by analysis via LC/MS in electrospray positive ion mode. The method achieves good linearity (R² > 0.9900) and reproducibility, with a limit of detection for oxycodone at 0.5 ng/mL. This manual is written in Japanese.

What is the maximum operating pressure for these columns?
The maximum operating pressure is 600 bar (9000 psi).
What is the recommended storage solvent for long term storage?
Long term storage should be in a pure organic solvent, preferably an aprotic liquid such as 100% acetonitrile.
What technology is used in the ZORBAX SB-C18 column?
It uses StableBond C18 packing made by chemically bonding a sterically-protected C18 stationary phase to high purity silica spheres.
What is the particle size of this column?
The column features sub-2-micron particles designed to reduce or eliminate strong adsorption.
