Catalog Number - 82560-10P-2-3M

Cogent NP Diol™ Wide Pore HPLC Columns are designed for normal-phase and HILIC separations of polar and hydrophilic compounds, including larger biomolecules that require enhanced pore accessibility. Manufactured using ultra-high purity 300 Å silica bonded with a short hydrocarbon ligand containing a terminal diol functional group, this stationary phase provides reproducible retention, excellent stability, and broad solvent compatibility. The non-endcapped surface chemistry offers selectivity consistent with USP L20 classifications, making it an excellent choice for both established methods and new method development involving larger molecular weight analytes.

82560-10P-2-3M is packed with 5 µm NP Diol™ Wide Pore particles featuring a 300 Å pore size in a 2.1 mm ID x 100 mm format. The large pore structure improves accessibility for proteins, peptides, and other higher molecular weight compounds while maintaining excellent retention of hydrophilic and polar analytes. The narrow internal diameter reduces solvent consumption and provides excellent compatibility with LC-MS systems. NP Diol™ Wide Pore columns are often selected as alternatives to unmodified silica columns because they provide improved robustness and compatibility with a wider range of solvents while maintaining similar retention characteristics for many applications.

The 2.1 mm ID x 100 mm format is ideal for HILIC separations, normal-phase chromatography, LC-MS methods, protein analysis, peptide analysis, pharmaceutical applications, and method development involving polar compounds and biomolecules. Typical flow rates are approximately 0.2-0.3 mL/min. Standard HPLC systems used with 2.1 mm ID columns must be capable of delivering stable and reproducible low flow rates for optimum chromatographic performance.
