Comparison using Cogent Silica-C™ and UDC-Cholesterol™ HPLC Columns

In this Method, a non-modified, silica-hydride HPLC Column, Cogent Silica-C, produces good Retention of the important amino acid L(+)-α-Phenylglycine with an Isocratic Mobile Phase. In addition the Retention Times are extremely Reproducible (%RSD 0.2).

The same Method using a Cogent UDC-Cholesterol Column (UDC), silica-hydride with an 11 Carbon Hydrocarbon and a Cholesterol molecule bonded to it, highlights the strong Retention on the Silica-C 4.6 x 75mm Column compared with the longer Cholesterol 4.6 x 150mm Column for this compound.

Both Chromatograms use the same Mobile Phase in the ANP or Aqueous Normal Phase mode of HPLC.
