What does "T3" mean? - WKB52257
ENVIRONMENT
- T3
- Polar compound retention
ANSWER
"T3" is a term used by Waters to designate columns that have a trifunctionally bonded, low ligand density, C18 bonded phase, with proprietary endcapping.
T3 columns are designed to retain polar compounds in a reverse-phase mode of chromatography.
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Current T3 columns include the following:
CORTECS T3 — This bulk packing is QC tested with small molecules to ensure batch-to-batch separation reproducibility.
ACQUITY UPLC HSS T3 — This bulk packing is QC tested with small molecules to ensure batch-to-batch separation reproducibility.
ACQUITY UPLC Peptide HSS T3 — This bulk packing is QC tested with a cytochrome C tryptic digest to ensure batch-to-batch peptide separation reproducibility.
XSelect HSS T3 — This bulk packing is QC tested with small molecules to ensure batch-to-batch separation reproducibility.
XSelect Peptide HSS T3 — This bulk packing is QC tested with a cytochrome C tryptic digest to ensure batch-to-batch peptide separation reproducibility.
Atlantis T3 — This bulk packing is QC tested with small molecules to ensure batch-to-batch separation reproducibility.
Also:
A predecessor to the Atlantis T3 was Atlantis dC18 (difunctionally bonded, low ligand density C18 with proprietary endcapping) for polar compound retention.
