YMC-Pack C8

YMC-Pack C8 Guard Columns

YMC recommends that you always use a guard column with the same packing material and of the recommended inner diameter for your column. A YMC guard column is normally composed of a cartridge holder and a guard cartridge. The holder can be used repeatedly. Guard cartridges should be changed frequently in order to maximise their protection of the main column.

    YMC-Pack C8 is one of YMC's most commonly used bonded phases and an excellent alternative to C18 slectivities. Due to its moderate hydrophobicity, retention times tend to be shorter than those for C18 phaes.

      YMC-Pack C8 is suitable for a wide range of sample types including pharmaceuticals and biologicals with a relatively high hydrophobicity.
