Phenomenex Inc. will present two workshops at Pittcon 2012 in Orlando.

“UHPLC Beyond Reversed Phase: Expanding Application Areas Beyond Small Molecules” will be presented on Wednesday, March 14 at 8:00 a.m. in Room 308C. Speakers include industry experts from Genentech, Integrated DNA Technologies, Mannkind, Waters and Phenomenex. Innovators in chromatography will discuss the impacts of recent advances in UHPLC instrument and column technology on characterization of proteins, oligonucleotides and other biologically relevant analytes.

“Analytical and Spectroscopic Advances and Their Impact on Biofuel Analysis” will be presented on Thursday, March 15 at 8:00 a.m. in Room 313. Speakers from Phenomenex and Shimadzu will discuss the current state of the art in analytical techniques for biofuels research and production, as well as new advances.

Complete agendas can be found on the Pittcon web site under “Technical Program/Technical Sessions.” There is no additional charge for registered Pittcon conferees.

Aeris Core-Shell LC Columns for Proteins and Peptides

Phenomenex Inc

  Core-Shell Particles Precision Engineered for Protein and Peptide Separations.   Core-shell particle technology provides striking increases in peak capacity and resolution at lower backpressure, giving chromatographers the ability to achieve ultra-high performance on ANY system, HPLC or UHPLC. A uniform porous silica layer is grown around a solid, spherical silica core, providing effective retention and selectivity with improved resolution, speed, and recovery. Next, optimizing the pore size and shell thickness for intact proteins or smaller peptide fragments provides well-defined depth penetration of biomolecules leading to maximum separation power. Column Specifications: Phase: PEPTIDE XB-C18, WIDEPORE C4, WIDEPORE XB-C18, WIDEPORE XB-C8 Particle Size: 1.7, 2.6, 3.6, 5.0 µm Pore Size: 200, 100 Å Length: 50, 100, 150, 250 mm ID: 2.1, 3.0, 4.6, 10.0, 21.2 PEPTIDE XB-C18 Synthetic peptide impurity analysis Peptide mapping Identifying protein modifications - Glycosylation - Substitution - Truncation Analyzing post-translational modifications - Deamidation - Oxidation - Deletions WIDEPORE XB-C18 Proteins Hydrophilic proteins PEGylated proteins High temperature separations Alternative selectivity for peptide mapping WIDEPORE XB-C8 Large proteins Moderately hydrophobic proteins Monoclonal antibodies Glycosylated proteins High temperature separations WIDEPORE C4 Very large proteins Very hydrophobic proteins Membrane proteins Least retentive

SecurityGuard™ ULTRA Guard Cartridge System for UHPLC Columns

Phenomenex Inc

SecurityGuard ULTRA offers a convenient and economical way to extend core-shell, sub-2µm, and other UHPLC column lifetimes SecurityGuard™ ULTRA dramatically extends UHPLC column lifetime and is ideal for virtually any manufacturer's UHPLC, sub-2µm or core-shell columns. SecurityGuard ULTRA protects against the damaging effects of chemical contaminants and microparticulates introduced by the sample, mobile phase or system, which can negatively impact column lifetime, method sensitivity, quantitation and peak identification. By reducing the frequency of column replacements, as well as the need for troubleshooting and system down time, SecurityGuard ULTRA saves chromatographers time and money. Pressure-rated up to 20,000 psi (1,378 bar), these guard cartridges have no significant impact on chromatography, backpressure or dead volume. To watch how easy it is to install SecurityGuard ULTRA visit the product webpage. SecurityGuard ULTRA provides the following advantages: Virtually no change in chromatography Easy cartridge replacement Universal fit compatible with majority of UHPLC column endfittings Pressure rated up to 20,000 psi. Phenomenex also offers an interactive web application where users can enter their UHPLC, sub-2µm or core-shell column information to find the most appropriate column protection system.
