PL-SAX / SCX for Biomolecules

PL-SAX / SCX Biochromatography Columns from Agilent Technologies

PL-SAX / SCX columns are ideal for the ion-exchange HPLC separations of proteins and deprotected synthetic oligonucleotides under denaturing conditions.

PL-SAX has strong anion exchange functionality, covalently linked to a chemically stable polymer, extends the operating pH range. In addition, the anion exchange capacity is independent of pH. For synthetic oligonucleotides, separations using denaturing conditions of temperature, organic solvent, and high pH are all possible. PL-SAX delivers improved chromatography for self-complementary or G-rich sequences that may associate to form aggregates or hairpin structures. The 5 µm material provides high efficiency separations of n and n-1 sequences.

PL-SCX is a macroporous PS/DVB matrix with a very hydrophilic coating and strong cation-exchange functionality. This process is controlled to provide the optimum density of strong cation-exchange moieties for the analysis, separation and purification of a wide range of biomolecules, from small peptides to large proteins. Two pore sizes are available, 1000Å and 4000Å, to provide good mass transfer characteristics for a range of solute sizes. The 5 µm media delivers separations at higher resolution with the 30 µm media used for medium pressure liquid chromatography.
