Article number: 55140

ENVIRONMENT

  • UltraPerformance Liquid Chromatography (UPLC)
  • Ultra High Performance Liquid Chromatography (UHPLC)
  • High Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC)
  • Column
  • ACQUITY
  • MaxPeak
  • High Performance Surfaces (HPS)
  • ACQUITY Premier
  • Bridged Ethylene Hybrid (BEH)
  • ACQUITY BEH Amide columns
  • XBridge BEH Amide columns
  • HILIC
  • Metabolite identification
  • Atlantis
  • Z-HILIC

ANSWER

For UPLC:

  • ACQUITY Premier BEH Amide, 130A, 1.7 µm Columns**
  • ACQUITY UPLC BEH Amide, 130Å, 1.7µm columns
  • Atlantis Premier BEH Z-HILIC, 95A, 1.7um Columns**

**MaxPeak HPS (High Performance Surfaces) column technology.

For HPLC:

  • XBridge Premier BEH Amide Column, 130A, 2.5µm Columns**
  • XBridge BEH Amide, 130A, 2.5um, 3.5um and 5um Columns.
  • Atlantis Premier BEH Z-HILIC, 95A, 2.5um and 5um Columns**

**MaxPeak HPS (High Performance Surfaces) column technology.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

Because metabolomics studies look at polar metabolites, a HILIC (hydrophilic interaction chromatography) column is a good choice for this type of work. The columns listed above a HILIC packings. These are excellent choices for diverse polar compound retention, including both basic and acidic polar metabolites (as well as neutral polar analytes).
