Phenomenex has added 150 and 250mm lengths to its Axia chromatography column line.
AXIA columns feature a packing and hardware design that eliminates bed collapse in preparative chromatography.
Compared with conventional columns, Axia delivers a 29 per cent increase in efficiency and decreases standard deviation.
The Axia columns last up to 1,000 cycles, are efficient and deliver high reproducibility.
Phenomenex media including Luna, Gemini and Synergi are now available in the longer Axia columns, as are the Lux phases for chiral separations.
Axia uses proprietary hydraulic piston compression technology that eliminates the variability in the manufacture and packing of these preparative HPLC columns and produces more robust and durable final products.
The longer Axia 21.2 ID columns are available in 50, 75 and 100mm and allow customers to triple their sample load in the scale-up process.
They are ideal for preparative purification applications such as drug discovery and development, fine chemicals and pesticides.
