When to use biphenyl selectivity?
Generally, C18 columns offer the ability to resolve a wide variety of analytes without issue. However, there are times when alternative chemistry is required for the separation of aromatic and moderately polar analytes. A biphenyl chemistry offers complementary selectivity to a C18 column, and the ability to resolve isomeric compounds, such as drugs of abuse and steroids by taking advantage of π-π interactions between the analyte and the stationary phase. This can help pull critical peaks out of matrix interferences.
Accucore biphenyl benefits
Our solid core column is designed based around voice of customer, addressing critical needs for customers in clinical research, forensic toxicology, pharmaceutical, and environmental labs. We have demonstrated outstanding column ruggedness and lot-to-lot reproducibility on this phase, optimizing critical parameters such as retention time stability, pressure, and peak asymmetry. Data quality should not be a concern.
We performed a ballistic gradient for over 3000 injections on an acidic, neutral, and basic compound. The data quality remained steady.
Further flexing its strength, the Accucore Biphenyl can separate a mix of steroid compounds in under 4 minutes, saving run time on instrumentation, and helping to improve sample throughput.
