The BIOshell A160 Peptide Phenyl-Hexyl HPLC/UHPLC column 150x0.5mm, 2.7µm, combines 160Å pores with aromatic phenyl-hexyl selectivity. The BIOshell A160 Peptide Phenyl-Hexyl can separate peptides differently to C18 via additional π-π and hydrophobic interactions. Typical applications of the BIOshell A160 Peptide Phenyl-Hexyl are peptide isomers, aromatic peptides, proteomics samples and LC–MS methods with alternative selectivity.
BIOshell columns use fused-core particles designed for biomolecules. Depending on the phase, larger pores are available for intact proteins and antibodies, medium-sized pores for peptides and oligonucleotides, and HILIC-like surfaces for glycans. The short diffusion path of the core-shell particles promotes narrow peaks, while the surface chemistry is optimized for typical bio-LC applications. As a result, BIOshell can be used for fast, sensitive, and MS-compatible bioanalytics.
