XSelect HSS C18 Column, 100Å, 3.5 µm, 4.6 mm X 150 mm, 1/pk
The XSelect HSS C18 Column is a general-purpose C18 bonded phase column that consistently delivers superior peak shape for bases, increased retention (vs. XBridge C18 columns), as well as exceptional column lifetimes at low pH. The selectivity and retention observed with the XSelect HSS C18 Column resembles that of most modern, fully end-capped, high-coverage silica-based C18 columns.
Leverage the XSelect HSS C18 Column and obtain superior peak shape for basic compounds, low column bleed, along with excellent batch-to-batch reproducibility, ultra-efficiencies, and seamless transferability between column formats. The versatile lab equipment is designed to meet all your analytical needs.
The XSelect HSS C18 Column is well suited for the low pH separations that contain complex mixtures of basic and non-basic compounds. The analytical XSelect HSS C18 Column makes use of the Waters High Strength Silica (HSS) technology that has been developed especially to offer chromatography-specific advantages. These include features such as increased polar compound retention and different selectivity. In addition to this, the HSS particle present in the lab equipment offers the necessary mechanical strength for tolerating UPLC pressures. This is why, with the XSelect HSS C18 Column, you get alternative analyte selectivity when compared to most modern, high coverage, fully end-capped C18 columns available commercially in the market. The column is also fully scalable and transferable to UPLC separations.
To be able to isolate and quantify the sample constituents, higher resolution separations are required for complex samples. By employing the use of the XSelect HSS C18 Column, you get the combined efficiency and selectivity that enables you to enhance the resolution of very complex samples. In addition to this, you can depend on the analytical lab equipment to provide enhanced selectivity for acidic, alkaline, and neutral compounds, as well as to provide enhanced retention for basic polar compounds using low-pH mobile phases.
We recommend that you also purchase the XSelect HSS C18 VanGuard Cartridge, 100Å, 3.5 µm, 3.9 mm X 5 mm, 3/pk along with the column in order to enhance the performance and lifetime of your analytical lab equipment. The cartridge prevents harmful particles from entering the mobile stream.
