ACQUITY UPLC BEH Shield RP18 Column, 130Å, 1.7 µm, 2.1 mm X 100 mm, 1/pk
The Waters ACQUITY UPLC BEH Shield RP18 Column has been holistically designed to significantly improve resolution, sample throughput, and sensitivity with a combination of innovative features. As a part of the ACQUITY UPLC family of products, the ACQUITY UPLC BEH Shield RP18 column is a necessary and powerful column for method development. These columns are able to provide scientists with both speed and resolution, along with increased sensitivity, meaning they can gather more information quickly without compromising data integrity in the process.
The innovations of UPLC technology are further enhanced by the inclusion of BEH particle technology, utilizing a bridged ethyl-siloxane/silica hybrid structure to enable improved efficiency, strength, and pH range. This 1.7 µm BEH particle allows chromatographers to maximize the efficiency of their separation procedures when using the ACQUITY UPLC BEH Shield RP18 Column. By combining the increased efficiency of UPLC and BEH technologies with the Shield RP18 chemistry, scientists are able to target their needs even further.
The embedded polar group, or Shield, RP columns have stationary phases that combine the hydrophobicity of an alkyl ligand with the hydrophilicity of an embedded polar group. This allows for alternate selectivity to that of alkyl reversed-phase columns, superior peak shape for bases, and aqueous mobile phase compatibility. These unique benefits of Shield RP phases, particularly for polyphenolic compounds, can be credited to the embedded polar groups acting as hydrogen bond acceptors. The ACQUITY UPLC BEH Shield RP18 Column is designed to complement ACQUITY BEH C18 and C8 phases.
Combining the patented Shield Technology and BEH technology, this column incorporates an embedded carbamate group into the bonded phase ligand. Waters’ shield ligands offer increased retention, alternate selectivity, and excellent peak shape when combined with the wide pH range and efficiency of the BEH particle. Make the most of this incredible piece of lab equipment by pairing it with other excellent products from Waters, such as the 96-well Sample Collection Plate, 700 µL Round well, 25/pk.
What makes ACQUITY UPLC systems different?
