A great [and more durable] alternative to reverse phase columns for basic compounds
Analyze weakly basic drugs
A very sturdy, highly retentive cation-exchange column ideal for analyzing weakly basic compounds and cationic species. It tolerates high flow rates and a broad range of pH values, delivering very consistent results without losing efficiency.

Baseline resolution without gradient elution!
Separate polar basic compounds that are not retained in C18
I had been trying to separate highly hydrophilic basic compounds using RP and ion pairing reagents but I had no luck. I decided to try ion exchange as a last resort with little hope. To my surprise, I managed to get baseline resolution with isocratic elution!

New Luna Omega 1.6µm UHPLC Columns
This is a brochure for new Luna Omega 1.6µm UHPLC Columns.
Modernization of USP and Ph. Eur. method - pantoprazole sodium sesquihydrate organic impurities
In this application note, the fully porous Luna™ 5 µm C18, 125 x 4.0 mm column was used for the analysis of pantoprazole. Further, modernization of this method was carried out on a fully porous, thermally modified, Luna Omega 3 µm C18, 100 x 3.0 mm column and a fully porous organo-silica Gemini™ 3 µm NX-C18, 100 x 3 mm column. Pantoprazole is a proton pump inhibitor used for the treatment of stomach ulcers and short-term treatment of erosive esophagitis due to gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD). This study shows the effective separation of pantoprazole from its organic impurities and related substances according to Ph. Eur. Monograph 2296 and USP Monograph for Pantoprazole Sodium Sesquihydrate Organic Impurities Test 2.
Modernization of USP and Ph. Eur. method – Irbesartan organic impurities/related substances
In this application note, Phenomenex demonstrates the potential method improvements that can be achieved within the defined allowable adjustments of chromatographic conditions per the USP and Ph. Eur. monographs using Luna™ C18(2) and Kinetex™ C18 columns. Irbesartan is a potent selective angiotensin II type 1 (AT1) receptor antagonist and is used in the treatment of hypertensive patients and diabetic nephropathy. This study for irbesartan and its related substances is based on USP and Ph. Eur monographs where an L1 (USP) or end-capped octadecylsilyl silica gel (Ph. Eur.) stationary phase is used under isocratic conditions.

LC-MS/MS Environmental Applications
The world is changing and we need to widen our Environmental Scope. Although analytical techniques and established regulated methods are not easily changed; more complex targets, larger lists, and a variety of sample matrices create a daily challenge for environmental chemists. By using the latest technologies and techniques in HPLC/ UHPLC and Sample Preparation, laboratories and chemists are able to develop better approaches to make their work Faster, Cheaper and Easier. Phenomenex is committed to supporting the industry through a comprehensive product portfolio of Sample Preparation, HPLC/UHPLC, and LC-MS, columns and accessories, along with application and method development services to meet industry needs.
The Clinical Application Notebook: Edition 2
This clinical notebook contains a variety of 36 application notes, covering topics in endocrinology and biomarker research, therapeutic drug monitoring, toxicology and sample preparation.
The Comprehensive HPLC/UHPLC Reversed Phase Selectivity Guide
The step-by-step guide gives an overview of the reversed phase HPLC/UHPLC options available. It explains the differences between the range of columns and describes how to choose the right solid support and selectivity for your specific method and goals.
Luna Omega Product and Application Guide
This application note describes the applications of the Luna Omega 1.6 μm column and benefits, including high efficiency and performance, ruggedness and mechanical strength. The article also references other products that can be used in conjunction with the Luna Omega to further optimize your method.
Comparison of Reversed Phase HPLC/UHPLC Column Selectivity
This application note graphically compares a range of Phenomenex® columns by hydrophobicity, steric interaction, hydrogen bonding capacity and cation selectivity. It lists columns that are best suited for separating different types of compounds, such as hydrocarbons and polar basic compounds. It also gives advice on choosing a solid support system.
Improving SWATH by Overlapped Windows
This application note investigates the use of overlapping SWATH windows to improve the cycle time and reduce the SWATH window size. The ability to acquire all possible MS/MS fragments during each cycle of data acquisition has radically changed peptide quantitation capabilities. Since no prior information is required, data acquisition is greatly simplified. During data processing, the particulars of which peptides and proteins are studied can be changed at any time, without the need for reacquiring any data. This investigation demonstrated that overlapping windows enabled deconvolution to narrower windows without loss in duty cycle and that narrower windows improved MS/MS quality and quantitative properties.
Improving Preparative HPLC Column Lifetime in High-Throughput Open-Access Purification Environments
This application note demonstrates how a new preparative Axia column packing process and hardware design, used in conjunction with a reliable, easy-to-use guard column, the SecurityGuard PREP, can improve column lifetime and productivity in high throughput drug discovery labs. The pressure to produce larger amounts of purified drug intermediates and the subsequent drop in sample preparation can result in column decay leading to system shut down and incomplete runs.
How to advance clinical research with polymeric mixed-mode solid phase extraction
In this webinar, Dr. Stephanie Marin, Global Clinical Market Development Manager at Phenomenex, will provide a comprehensive overview of polymeric mixed-mode solid phase extraction (SPE) fundamentals and the properties of polymeric hydrophobic interaction (reversed-phase) SPE sorbents. Attendees will learn how to choose the appropriate SPE phase for their specific compounds of interest, along with an explanation of the ionic functional groups that provide the mixed-mode functionalities, including both weak and strong cation and anion exchange.
Dr. Marin will also delve into the initial extraction conditions required to initiate method development for each type of SPE sorbent, as well as specialized SPE products tailored for drug testing, phospholipid removal, and microelution SPE. This webinar will include numerous clinical research applications to exemplify these concepts.
Key learning objectives
