Column-to-column and batch-to batch reproducibility

Used in a wide range of validated methods

Peptide maps generated by RP-HPLC provide valuable information about protein structure, stability, and purity. To be effective, the RP-HPLC column must be able to resolve a high percentage of the peptides in the sample. The more peptides, the better the information. Discovery BIO Wide Pore C18 gives unsurpassed RP-HPLC resolution of peptide maps from enzymatic digests. The improvements in silica and bonded-phase chemistry we h…

Easily separate N-1 failure sequences from target oligo with > 90% purities

SecurityGuard offers a convenient and economical way to extend HPLC column lifetimes. Did you know a common cause of high backpressure, split peaks, broad peaks, baseline noise, baseline drift and loss of resolution is contaminants? The fact is all mobile phases contain some chemical contaminants or microparticulates, from the sample, solvent, or wear on the polymeric seals of the pump or injector. These contaminants can…
