State-of-the-Need products at exceptional value

Using a special technology, the ligands are bonded directly to the TYPE-C silica surface with two separate points of attachment for extreme durability even at very low pH (1.0). This combination gives very stable, efficient and unique HPLC columns that have a wider range of compounds to be separated. Since there are virtually no silanols and the silica surface is slightly hydrophobic, these columns can be used with 100% aqueous mobile phases.

HILIC columns vs. Cogent Type-C silica-based columns

Cogent Type-C columns in ANP (Aqueous Normal Phase) mode outperform HILIC columns in the following areas:
- retain nonpolar compounds by RP mechanism
- retain polar compounds by NP mechanism
- BOTH RP and NP mechanisms can operate simultaneously
- can separate samples with BOTH polar and nonpolar analytes
- equilibration time for gradient elution is 5 minutes between runs
