Can I store a CORTECS C18 column in acetonitrile that contains ammonium formate buffer? - WKB73871

Article number: 73871

ENVIRONMENT

  • Column storage
  • Column care and use
  • CORTECS columns

ANSWER

No, this is not recommended.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

For periods of up to 12 hours (overnight), storage in acetonitrile with 10mM ammonium formate is acceptable.

For periods longer than 12 hours, flush buffers out of the column and store in 100% acetonitrile.

See the CORTECS 1.6µm Columns Care & Use Manual and the CORTECS 2.7µm Columns Care & Use Manual for more information on storage.
