XBridge BEH C18 OBD Prep Column, 130Å, 5 µm, 19 mm X 50 mm, 1/pk
In HPLC method development, the XBridge BEH C18 sorbent can be used over the entire range of mobile phase pH. (1-12). With the broadest pH range, outstanding low pH stability, and ultra-low column bleed, the C18 ligand is tri-functionally coupled to provide a universal column for most HPLC separations. Connect your chromatographic analytical columns to the XBridge BEH C18 OBD Prep Column to extend the life of your chromatographic analytical columns while maintaining chromatographic analytical performance. The Prep Column ensures system separation efficiency by removing chemical and particle contaminants.
The XBridge BEH C18 OBD Prep Column is simple to use. It protects your XBridge BEH C18 Column from harmful contaminants. By filtering out any chemical and particle impurities in the mobile phase stream, the lab equipment boosts and improves the analytical performance of the column. A high-performance matching prep column should be used to protect your system and primary column without compromising or diminishing analytical resolution. In liquid chromatography, the Waters XBridge BEH C18 OBD Prep Column is designed to continuously give superior quality and desired results.
Like the rest of our equipment, Waters manufactures these columns in dedicated state-of-the-art Waters facilities. All of Waters' production plants and facilities follow the strictest cGMP and ISO 9001 standards. Each stage of the manufacturing process is rigorously examined and monitored, providing the highest quality equipment in your labs.

We highly recommend that you also look into XBridge BEH C18 Prep Guard Cartridge, 130Å, 5 µm, 19 mm X 10 mm, 1/pk; As a workhorse for HPLC method development, XBridge BEH C18 sorbent can be used over an entire range of mobile phase pH (1-12). The tri-functionally bonded C18 ligand provides you with a universal column for most HPLC separations and gives you the widest usable pH range, superior low pH stability, and ultra-low column bleed.
How Does Polarity Affect Chromatography Separation?
Polar molecules are more strongly attracted to polar solvents; hence when a polar solvent is employed instead of a non-polar solvent, the molecules travel further. Comparisons and measurements can be conducted between the distance that spots move and the overall distance that the solvent has moved.
