Spherisorb C8 Column, 80Å, 10 µm, 4.6 mm X 250 mm, 1/pk
The Spherisorb C8 columns are general purpose, silica-based reversed-phase columns that contain an Octyl ligand and remain one of our most popular products. This is because these USP L7 columns can be relied upon when you require a less retentive sorbent compared to the Spherisorb ODS columns.
The Waters’ Spherisorb Columns are some of the most widely referenced HPLC columns in scientific literature, appearing in thousands of analytical abstracts due to their wide range of validated methods and applications that assist in the method development process. The Spherisorb Column range has high-quality bonded phases that give many separation selectivities while providing industry-standard Parker-style column end fittings. As these analytical columns are durable and highly efficient, they provide exceptional flexibility in optimizing methods and reducing solvent consumption. As a highly regarded piece of lab equipment, Spherisorb columns are the top choice of many scientists.
Like the lab equipment that is made by Waters, the Spherisorb C8 Column is manufactured in a dedicated chromatography chemistry manufacturing plant under cGMP guidelines. The plant is ISO 9002 certified and registered with the FDA to manufacture Class 1 medical devices. This is what enables Waters to guarantee that the Spherisorb C8 column will consistently meet the quality standards required in regulated laboratories. In addition to this, each column is individually tested with a copy of the test chromatogram supplied with each column. This particular column arrives as a single unit to a package, with an inner diameter of 4.6 mm and a length of 250 mm. The particle size included is 10 µm.
We recommend that you also opt for the Spherisorb C8 Guard Cartridge, 80Å, 5 µm, 4.6 mm X 30 mm, 3/pk to be added to your lab equipment collection. The addition of a Spherisorb C8 Guard Cartridge can help extend column lifetimes for sustained usage. This is because the Guard Cartridge is designed to protect your analytical column from harm. It performs this function by preventing any chemical or particulate contaminants from reaching the mobile stream, which in turn enhances the column’s lifetime and also enhances its performance.
