YMC-Pack ODS-AQ

YMC-Pack ODS-AQ 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 ODS-AQ is a “hydrophilic” C18 material with a balanced surface chemistry leading to elution of moderately basic compounds with little or no peak tailing and strong retention of polar sample solutes.

YMC-Pack ODS-AQ is able to resolve compounds with minor differences in polarity from closely related substances. As a result, YMC-Pack ODS-AQ is an excellent tool for separating drugs and corresponding metabolites, pesticides and degradation products, or peptides and protein digests etc.
