Hichrom is pleased to announce that we have acquired the worldwide exclusive rights to manufacture and sell these analytical HPLC column ranges from Grace. All columns are manufactured to identical protocols and to the same exacting specifications previously used by Grace/Alltech. Part numbers also remain unaffected by this acquisition. Based in the UK, Hichrom is a leading European manufacturer and distributor of UHPLC and HPLC columns, consumables and media, with manufacturing facilities accredited to both ISO9001 (Quality) and ISO14001 (Environmental) standards.
The key benefits of the U-2D 96 Well Plates system include:
These HALO-2 Peptide columns are packed with 2 µm “core-shell” type particles having an optimised pore size of 160 Å. This provides greater separation efficiencies for these types of biomolecules.
The novel design enables the rack containing precision glass inserts to be removed from the plastic base, for checking individual inserts for bubbles or missed fills, or for transfer to a thermal bath for controlled heating or cooling. Additionally individual glass inserts can be removed and placed into 9mm screw top autosampler vials for storage or for transfer to another instrument platform. This enables small volume samples to be stored with minimal loss of sample.
Researchers today are keenly interested in both fast and high resolution separations of numerous biomolecules to support the development of novel therapeutic proteins and peptides in pharmaceutical drug development, to advance understanding in modern university laboratories, to characterise protein post-translational modifications and to fully assess subtle differences in biosimilars and other products of bioengineering and manufacture.
Princeton Chromatography were the first company to develop and market the popular 2-Ethylpyridine phase which was launched in 2001 and later the 4-Ethylpyridine phase. PrincetonSFC 2-Ethylpyridine has become the column of choice for achiral SFC analysis of basic compounds. This phase generally requires no addition of amines to the eluent, producing excellent peak shape and reproducibility.
The new HALO Glycan HPLC stationary phase is a high performance material specifically targeted for separations of highly polar oligosaccharides, and particularly protein-linked glycans and glycopeptides, by hydrophilic interactive liquid chromatography (HILIC). The phase has a highly polar ligand containing 5 hydroxyl groups, which is attached to a 2.7micron Fused-Core silica particle via novel proprietary linkage chemistry....
Cogent Diol is a 4um diol bonded phase suitable for the reversed-phase or aqueous normal-phase (ANP) analysis of polar compounds and is LC-MS compatible. Columns show fast equilibration between gradient runs and can be successfully used in studies of pathways in human pathology.
Cogent TYPE-C silica HPLC phases offer unique opportunities for the separation of a wide range of sometimes difficult to separate compounds. They have the ability to retain polar solutes at high concentrations of organic solvent by aqueous normal-phase (ANP) and non-polar compounds under reversed-phase (RP) conditions.
Whether you are a relative newcomer to chromatography or a seasoned veteran, you can benefit from one of our courses. In addition to the well-established and well received theoretical courses (which are available as full day training courses or short 1-2 hour seminars), a wide range of practical ‘Hands-On’ courses covering all aspects of LC, LC/MS, GC, GC/MS and sample preparation is now also available.
The patented CDMR vial manufacturing process and design results in an internal glass surface that is virtually seamless, eliminating the “internal ridge” that may result in some vial designs when the vial blank is fused to the vial bottom. This “internal ridge” can retain up to 17ul of fluid sample in a 1.8ml vial....
These adsorption properties are routinely tested by MicroSolv using LCMS and other analytical techniques, by measuring the degree of disappearance of polar compounds from solution over time due to ionic interactions with the glass surface. MicroSolv have demonstrated that ordinary (non-RSA glass) vials adsorb far greater levels of these basic, polar compounds....
Kromasil EternityXT UHPLC/HPLC Columns
These columns use patented bonding technology to create a surface populated by silicon-hydride functional groups instead of silanols. The lack of surface silanols leads to fast equilibration times, excellent peak shape and extended column lifetimes for a wide range of analytes. To demonstrate the unique abilities of Cogent TYPE-C silica LC phases a wide range of application notes are available including.....

One of the most common causes of LC column failure is particulate material collecting on the inlet frit of the column, causing high back pressure and/or distortion of peak shape. By one estimate, over 70% of LC column failures are caused by inlet frit plugging. UHPLC columns, especially those packed with sub-2μm size particles, are particularly vulnerable to inlet frit plugging. Advanced Chromatography Technologies offers three different ranges of pre-column filters, each designed for column specific protection...

RSA Glass vials are not coated or silanized. The lack of surface silanols make RSA Glass vials an excellent choice for many applications. If you are working with sensitive compounds commonly found in natural products, biological samples or chemical synthesis, the glass wall of your vial could be a problem for basic compounds. With RSA Glass vials this problem is eliminated....
HALO-5 columns are initially available in C18 and PFP phases and have been specifically developed in order to provide improved HPLC performance when used with traditional HPLC equipment, as the lower back pressure of these columns is ideally suited to these instruments. It has been demonstrated that for a given operating pressure, HALO-5 columns deliver significantly higher efficiency than a column packed with 5µm totally porous particles...
Detect low abundance analytes normally adsorbed by glass
HALO Penta-HILIC is the latest addition to the original 2.7µm range of Fused-Core columns manufactured by Advanced Materials Technology. HALO columns feature a 0.5µm porous silica layer ‘fused' onto a 1.7µm solid silica particle. The resulting columns provide faster separations and higher sample throughput, without compromising column efficiency, ruggedness and reliability. These Fused-Core particles generate significantly lower back pressure compared to other UHPLC columns, enabling them to be used with conventional HPLC as well as UHPLC equipment.
