General description

LC-PAK® Polisher is a purification cartridge containing granular C18 reversed phase silica. It is validated to achieve water quality suitable for trace and ultra-trace organic analyses.
The compact device provides efficient and convenient access to freshly purified ultrapure water from the point of dispense of compatible water purification systems.

Application

Ultrapure water treated by an LC-Pak® polisher is suitable for eluent, buffer and blank preparation, sample dilution and standard preparation in HPLC, UHPLC, LC-MS and LC-MS-MS analyses.

Features and Benefits

  • Manufactured in an ISO 9001-compliant plant.
  • C18 granular silica in the polypropylene housing is tightly packed by a compression disc to avoid any channeling effect. This ensures that water passing through the LC-Pak® polisher is in close contact with the C18 chains binding organic molecules by hydrophobic interactions.
  • Produces a minimum of 500 L of water suitable for trace and ultra-trace organic analysis, when fed with Milli-Q® ultrapure water.
  • Care-free maintenance: the polisher is easily fitted and replaced.
  • LC-Pak® Cartridge is delivered hermetically sealed, with a Certificate of Quality
  • Activate with high-grade methanol before use.
