SUPELCOGEL™ 8Ca, 8% Crosslinked HPLC Guard Column, 9 µm particle size, L x I.D. 5 cm x 4.6 mm

The Supelcogel 8Ca HPLC column 50x4.6mm, 9µm, uses a calcium form with finer and/or more efficient polymer resin characteristics. The Supelcogel 8Ca is suitable for sugar separations where higher resolution or narrower peaks are required. Applications of the Supelcogel 8Ca are sugar profiles, high‑fructose syrups, food control, fermentation monitoring and carbohydrate analysis.

Features and Benefits

• Polymer-based ion-exclusion and ligand-exchange phases
• For sugars, sugar alcohols, and organic acids
• Various counterions available
• Stable in aqueous eluents
• Suitable for food and fermentation analysis

Additional Notes

Supelcogel columns are based on sulfonated, cross-linked polymer resins. Depending on the counterion, separation occurs via ligand exchange, ion exclusion, and size exclusion mechanisms. Calcium, lead, hydrogen, and other ion forms alter the selectivity for mono-, di-, and oligosaccharides, sugar alcohols, organic acids, and alcohols. As a result, Supelcogel is a proven platform for carbohydrate, food, beverage, and fermentation analysis.
