SKU: 186001470 XTerra MS C18 Column, 125Å, 3.5 µm, 4.6 mm X 250 mm, 1/pk
XTerra MS C18 columns are general purpose, hybrid-based, reversed-phase C18 columns that are designed to be compatible with mass spectrometry applications. These first generation columns provide superior pH stability compared to a silica-based column.
What makes the XTerra MS C18 Column suitable for mass spectrometry? The XTerra MS C18 Column is designed with a silica-based hybrid particle technology that minimizes secondary interactions and provides sharp peak shapes, making it particularly suitable for mass spectrometry applications.
Can the XTerra MS C18 Column be used for both aqueous and organic mobile phases? Yes, the XTerra MS C18 Column is versatile and can be used with both aqueous and organic mobile phases, enhancing its utility in a wide range of chromatographic conditions.
What type of separations is the XTerra MS C18 Column best suited for? This column is well-suited for the separation of small to medium-sized polar and non-polar compounds, offering robust performance in both simple and complex matrices.
How does the XTerra MS C18 Column handle acidic and basic compounds? The column's hybrid particle technology provides excellent peak shapes for acidic and basic compounds, reducing tailing and improving resolution.
What is the recommended maintenance for the XTerra MS C18 Column? Regular flushing with appropriate solvents and following a proper storage protocol as recommended by the manufacturer are essential to maintain the column's performance and extend its lifetime.
What Can Mass Spectroscopy Be Used For?
Mass spectrometry is an analytical tool that is used to measure the mass-to-charge ratio (m/z) of one or more molecules present in a sample. These measurements can often be used to calculate the exact molecular weight of the sample components as well.
