HPLC Guard Columns Manufacturer
Retains chemicals and particulates that cause clogging of the column frit, collapse of the column head and reduced column efficiency.
Catalogue
Note: The following factors are considered in the selection of guard columns;
1. unless special circumstances, generally choose the packing and analytical HPLC column matrix in the same protective column.
2. Select the size of the guard column can be calculated by the HPLC column volume; the volume of the guard column can be 5% to 10% of the HPLC column volume; such as 4.6 * 250mm LC column volume of about 4mL, and we suggest that the volume of the guard column should be select between 0.2~0.4mL. At the same time, the inner diameter of the guard column should be the same or equivalent to the inner diameter of the HPLC column.
HPLC Guard Columns retains those strongly retained, non-adsorbable compounds. The filtration of the sample and mobile phase maintains the adsorption capacity of the column for chemical contaminants, enabling the column to be maintained for a longer period of time.

Yes |
Reversed-phase |
- C8 has a relatively low hydrophobicity compared with C18 stationary, suitable for the separation of most hydrophobic compounds, more suitable for separating compounds with strong adsorption on C18 column. | |||
USHA C4 |

Yes |
Normal-phase Reversed-phase |
- Strong polarity can be both positive and negative; The amino functional group provides a retention that allows the analysis of polar compounds under normal phase elution conditions. - Organic compounds in monosaccharides and polyglycans/ olefines/aromatics can be analyzed by acetonitrile and water. - In the buffer of low pH value, there is weak anion exchange which can separate some negatively charged molecules. |

2~8 |
Yes |
Normal-phase Reversed-phase |
- Medium polarity cyanogroup, can be used in both positive andnegative phases.
- The hydrophobicity is relatively low in the stationary phase of reversed-phase chromatography and shows a different selectivity from that of C18 due to the π-electron interaction of the cyanide group. - Suitable for separation of components that have been separated for too long on C18, and suitable for the occasion where is very difficult to optimize the chromatogram on C18. - When very hydrophobic compounds cannot be eluted using standard C18 and C8 reversed-phase column, the most polarized inverting column can be a cyanide column. |

Why is it necessary to have an analytical guard column?
Various reagents are used in the mobile phase of HPLC and some insoluble or impure substances can be mixed with them. Most of the insoluble material can be removed by filtering the mobile phase with a sieve plate or membrane filter, but very fine particles can pass through the filter. There is also the possibility of insoluble or impure substances falling in from the air or from containers, the human body etc. after the mobile phase has been modulated. Depending on the purpose of the analysis, these insoluble or impure substances may contaminate the column, clog it, or adversely affect the analysis. This can be prevented by installing an analytical protection column in front of the column, which protects the column.
Analysis of the role of guard columns
The analytical guard column serves to pre-trap substances that will be firmly adsorbed by the column and cannot be washed by the mobile phase. The packing of the analytical protection column is usually the same as that of the chromatographic column, as the damage to the analytical column is in most cases only a small part of the packing on the inlet side of the column. uHPLCs recommends that you make effective use of analytical guard columns to extend the life of the column.
