Symmetry Shield RP8 Column, 100Å, 3.5 µm, 3 mm X 100 mm, 1/pk
The embedded polar group technology developed by Waters is used in these reversed-phase columns to "shield" the leftover silanol surface from very basic analytes. Peak form and resolution are considerably enhanced by the SymmetryShield RP8 column's reduced silanol activity.
Symmetry columns offer a high level of repeatability and total assurance in the ongoing compliance of your HPLC procedures. In Symmetry Shield Columns, Waters' distinctive Embedded Polar Group Technology is utilized to protect leftover silanols in silica from extremely basic analytes and to improve peak form. Placing the embedded polar group close to the silica surface further reduces the activity of the surface silanols. This imparts selectivity and retention that are distinct from the Symmetry C18 ligand.
Like all Waters products, the Symmetry Shield RP8 Column is produced using only the purest reagents in a cGMP-certified, ISO 9001-certified facility.

How Should Filtration Be Done Within Liquid Chromatography Set up?
Before adding a sample to the syringe, draw around 1 mL of air into the device. This will enable the air to exit the syringe with the sample. The filter device's fluid retention is reduced by this "air purge." The filtered solution should now be injected into the syringe. Twist the filled syringe onto the filter device while holding the filter device in one hand without using excessive effort. Start the filtration process by applying light pressure.
