The XBridge Protein BEH C4, 300 Å, 3.5 µm, 2.1 mm x 50 mm column is QC tested and optimized to separate proteins based on size, hydrophobicity and isoelectric point. If you compare to traditional C18 phases, the C4 ligand is less retentive and will minimize protein carryover, increase protein recovery, and improve peak capacity.
