Guard Column Cartridges, NP Amino, Wide Pore, 5um, 300A. 2.1mm ID x 10mm Length. Cogent Brand. 5/PK.

Additional Information:

Cogent NP Amino™ Wide Pore Guard Column Cartridges are designed to protect valuable analytical HPLC columns from particulate contamination and strongly retained compounds that can reduce column performance and shorten column life. Packed with the same NP Amino™ Wide Pore stationary phase as the corresponding analytical columns, these guard cartridges help maintain chromatographic performance while reducing analytical column replacement costs and instrument downtime.

68540-PG1-3 is packed with 5 µm NP Amino™ Wide Pore particles in a 2.1 mm ID x 10 mm guard cartridge format with a 300Å pore size. Manufactured using a three-carbon propyl ligand containing a terminal amino functional group bonded to the highest purity silica available, this stationary phase is not end capped and provides the same selectivity characteristics as Cogent NP Amino™ Wide Pore analytical columns. The 300Å pore structure improves accessibility for larger molecules, making it particularly effective for protecting columns used in the analysis of complex sugars, biomolecules, and other larger polar compounds.

Designed specifically for use with 2.1 mm ID NP Amino™ Wide Pore analytical columns, these guard cartridges help prevent contamination from sample particulates and strongly adsorbed compounds before they reach the analytical column. They are particularly beneficial for HILIC and Normal Phase separations involving complex carbohydrates, compounds containing carboxylic acid groups, and other highly polar analytes requiring wide pore stationary phases.
