Good efficiency, very robust column.
Rating: 5.0

  • Application Area:Analyze azo dyes in textile samples

"We currently use BEH C18 1.7 um 2,1x100mm columns to analyze textile samples searching for azo dyes. We assess textile samples to know if they comply with current European in force legislation. These columns are very robust and we get very reproducible results week by week. We analyze near 100 samples in a week. It is very satisfying to work with such products."

Best UHPLC column ever.
Rating: 4.7

  • Application Area:Chromatographic separation of persistant organic pollutants

"Some colleagues suggested this column to me because of its easy set-up and Amazing peak shape and resolution. I used it for just a few months and I can confirm their opinion. This is the best column that I ever used. It is a little expensive but its performance is priceless."

BEH columns are great for analytical analysis.
Rating: 4.7

  • Application Area:Analytical chemistry

"Waters BEH columns are very robust and easy to use. I run ~2000 samples on the same column, and the performances of the column are very reproducible. I usually run in-house standard mix to evaluate the performance of the column and the UPLC system to assure the experimental results. In all, the BEH column can give very reproducible results with retention time shift within 0.02min, which is very important for any analysis."

"We have an Acquity UPLC nano-flow system in our lab connected to QSTAR and we use the BEH C18 column with it. The column is really easy to equilibrate and very versatile. I deal with very complex samples and this column has proved quite efficient. I would recommend this product for sure."

"If you are looking to separate a complex mixture these columns are the only ones in the market with 1mm internal diameter. This diameter with 150 mm length gives you really good separation of complex isomeric species, such in the case of naphthenic acids. I have been working with conditions of 10-14k psi and 50ºC with no problems. Very reliable and excellent durability. The only cons are that if you find out that it is not the column for your application, it is not possible to change it."
