YMC-Pack PROTEIN-RP

YMC-Pack PROTEIN-RP is a reversed-phase column utilizing a silica gel base. It contains a stationary phase, specifically designed for separation of proteins or peptides.
Problems that are associated with conventional reversed-phase columns with short alkyl chain lengths are minimized.Robust column lifetime and excellent recovery of hydrophobic proteins are typically possible on this phase.

SPECIFICATION

Particle size : 5µm
Pore size : 200Å
Usable pH range : 1.5-7.5

POINT

  • Improved recovery of proteins or peptides
  • Improved durability when used with TFA solution
  • Enabled elution of high molecular weight proteins

Improved recovery of proteins or peptides

The graph shows the test result of the stability of the stationary phase with 0.1% aqueous TFA. Retention of diphenyl on C4 columns manufactured by other companies greatly decreases as time passes. This is caused by detachment of butyl groups from the packing material due to acid hydrolysis.
Retention of diphenyl on YMC-Pack PROTEIN-RP is shown to be stable after 500 hours of mobile phase flow.
