Are you plagued with poor peak shapes, low sensitivities, sample carry over and/or low recoveries for challenging compounds. Several substances are able to interact with the usual inert column hardware materials such as stainless steel or titanium. The adsorption on metallic surfaces typically leads to peak tailing, loss of recovery and sample carry over. Critical substances are especially metal-coordinating compounds, such as fumonisins, sphingophospholipids or organophosphates in general....

A number of analytes are able to interact with conventional inert column hardware materials such as stainless steel or titanium. The inert YMC-Triart metal-free (U)HPLC columns are fully biocompatible due to their PEEK lined stainless steel column bodies and the use of PEEK frits. You can achieve excellent peak shapes and reliable recoveries for critical substances such as biomolecules. The prevention of carryover makes them an ideal choice for highly sensitive LC/MS analyses....
