BioResolve SCX mAb VanGuard FIT Cartridge, 3 µm, 3.9 mm X 5 mm, 3/pk

Protecting your analytical workflow from contaminants should always be a top priority when you’re hard at work in the lab. Although proper sample purification processes remove contaminants before performing separations, there’s a still chance contaminants could be lingering in the mobile phase stream. But with the BioResolve SCX mAb VanGuard FIT Cartridge, you can better protect your precious assays from variability caused by particulate contaminants. This guard cartridge is packed with the same sorbent as the BioResolve SCX mAb Column, resulting in a column protection solution that’s chemically stable. Add the BioResolve SCX mAb VanGuard FIT Cartridge to your workflow now and enjoy healthier, longer column lifetimes.

What is VanGuard FIT?
VanGuard FIT is a column protection technology developed by scientists and for scientists. After repeated use of a column, there’s a chance the column can become fouled and not operate as well as it should. VanGuard FIT is installed seamlessly into your existing workflow to prevent the contaminants that cause this fouling from entering your separations. In particular, the BioResolve SCX mAb VanGuard FIT Cartridge was specifically designed to uphold the chemical and mechanical stability needed for mAb separations. This especially comes in handy for method development, as the BioResolve SCX mAb Column is LC-MS system agnostic.

How does the BioResolve SCX mAb VanGuard FIT Cartridge achieve that previously mentioned stability?
For one, it offers the same pH range and is packed with the same sorbent as the BioResolve SCX mAb Column. But in terms of mechanical stability, the BioResolve SCX mAb VanGuard FIT Cartridge offers the same inner diameter as the accompanying column. And before you perform any separations with this cartridge attached, make sure to test your LC-MS equipment for mAb separation performance. To properly test your system, use the Waters Charge Variant Standard.
