Benefits of Phenyl Stationary Phase Chemistries in HPLC

Do you ever wonder why a C18 or C8 column is often used by default? Let's take a journey to think differently and open our minds to imagine analytes traveling down a path coated with chemistries other than C8 or C18.

Who Should Attend:

Anyone doing HPLC who is open to a deeper understanding of HPLC retention and separation mechanisms. Or anyone who wants to manipulate chemical interactions between analytes and the column stationary phase by considering column chemistries other than C18.
