Thermo Fisher Scientific is pleased to announce the expansion of the Acclaim™ Trinity™ family of HPLC column with new Acclaim Trinity P2 columns.


The new columns are designed to screen a wide range of counterions, including cations, anions, mono and multi-valent ions with one analysis, thanks to advanced mixed-mode Nanopolymer Silica Hybrid (NSH™) technology. Simple LC screening of the Active Pharmaceutical Ingredients (API) and their counterions can be achieved with high sensitivity using the Thermo Scientific™ Dionex™ Corona™ Charged Aerosol Detector.

The chemistry is designed to provide spatial separation of the anion exchange and cation regions, resulting in greater resolution and selectivity control. Also, the particles’ hydrophilic surface makes the Acclaim Trinity P2 useful as a HILIC column. It provides cation exchange, anion exchange and HILIC retentions on the same stationery phase, helping customers develop robust, fast, generic methods to improve productivity and reduce cost.

Thermo Fisher Scientific

The Thermo Scientific™ Acclaim™ Trinity™ P2 column is a high-performance, silica-based column specifically designed for separation of pharmaceutical mono- and multi-valent counterions by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). This column was engineered for analytical chemists who need simple, robust, fast, generic methods. The Acclaim Trinity P2 columns provide an effective solution for counterion analysis using one column and one method on a standard HPLC instrument.The Acclaim Trinity P2 column is based on nanopolymer silica hybrid (NSH) technology. It consists of high-purity, porous, 3 µm particles coated with charged nanopolymer particles: the innerpore area of the silica particles is modified with a covalently bonded hydrophilic layer that provides cation exchange retention, while the outer surface is modified with anion-exchange nanopolymer beads. This chemistry design ensures spatial separation of the anion exchange and cation exchange regions. In addition, its hydrophilic surface makes it useful as a hydrophilic interaction liquid chromatography (HILIC) column. Thus, the Acclaim Trinity P2 column provides cation-exchange, anion-exchange, and HILIC retentions on the same stationary phase.Acclaim Trinity P2 LC Column Features: Desired selectivity for pharmaceutical mono- and multi-valent counterion screening Retention of ionic and ionizable analytes without using ion-pairing reagents Compatibility with charged aerosol and mass spectrometry detection methods Easy to use Rugged packing Column Characteristics: Chemistry: SAX, WCX and HILIC Mixed-Mode Particle Size: 3 µm Length: 50, 100 mm ID: 3.0 mm
