Ascentis Express HPLC columns
12 January, 2012 | Supplied by: MerckAscentis Express HPLC columns, through the use of fused-core particle technology, provide both the high speed and high efficiencies of sub-2 μm particles while maintaining lower backpressures. This combination benefits UPLC (or other ultra high pressure system) users as well as conventional HPLC users, with the increased efficiency of the columns equating to the use of shorter columns and lower volume of solvents.
