A Look at Column Choices

There are many choices for reversed phase columns.

In this seminar we will look at: The basics of column chemistry including o Silica surface - Chemistry & Physical Properties Bonding Chemistries End-capping Particle size options Totally porous vs. superficially porous columns We will also look at how this fits with our conditions to get good lifetime from our columns.
