The Hamilton 79423 PRP-1 HPLC column has PEEK hardware and a PS-DVB polymer material type for reversed-phase absorption chromatography of organic compounds with small molecules with a molecular weight (mw) of less than 2,000, including pharmaceuticals, steroids, nucleic acids, vitamins, and herbicides. The polyether ether ketone (PEEK) hardware prevents particulates and highly adsorptive compounds from reaching the column, and is compatible with biologically active samples. PS-DVB polymer columns resist chemical attack from organic solvents and aqueous buffers, which provides a longer life span as opposed to silica-based columns. PS-DVB supports are cross-linked to prevent shrinking and swelling, providing pressure stability up to 5,000 psi. The column has an organic compound classification with mobile phase limits of 1 to 13 pH, and 0 to 100% aqueous, organic modifier. The column has a 100-angstrom pore size, and filters 5-micron particles. It is 150mm long, and has a 4.6mm inside diameter (ID). HPLC columns are used with chromatography systems to perform high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) on a variety of organic and inorganic samples, including DNA, peptides, steroids, and metals.
