The Phenomenex 1.3-micron Kinetex core-shell media claims to offer superior UHPLC performance.
Phenomenex has announced the addition of 1.3-micron UHPLC columns to its Kinetex core-shell product line.
With the smallest diameter in the Kinetex family, the 1.3-micron is described as “the most efficient particle on the market.”
The Kinetex core-shell family now includes four particle sizes, from 1.3- to 5-micron, providing separation solutions for virtually every chromatographic application.
With efficiency levels over 400,000 plates per meter, UHPLC users can now reach previously unavailable levels of sensitivity and performance.
While fully porous sub-2-micron columns exhibit significant band broadening due to frictional heating as flow rate increases, the Kinetex particle morphology and packing technology help to reduce these and other effects to ensure high resolution and sensitivity over an extended linear velocity.
