General description

Ascentis Express Peptide ES-C18 columns are specifically engineered to separate higher molecular weight compounds such as peptides and small proteins. These columns contain advanced Fused-Core particles that have larger pores (160 Å versus 90 Å in standard Ascentis Express), bonded with sterically-protected C18 ligands to provide extra stability (ES) at very low pH (< 1) and high temperatures (up to 100ºC). This greatly expands the application range for Ascentis Express columns.

Questions

1–10 of 12 Questions  
  1. What is the carbon load for product 53307-U Ascentis® Express Peptide ES C18 HPLC Column?

    1 answer
    1. Carbon load which is commonly referred to as %Carbon is misleading and not meaningful for Ascentis Express. Since Fused-Core™ particle is unique in the sense that it has a solid core and porous shell, the %Carbon number can not be compared to traditional porous particles.  The carbon coverage for product 53307-U Ascentis® Express Peptide ES C18 HPLC column is 2 micromoles/meter-squared.

  2. Do I need special fittings and tubing to connect product 53307-U Ascentis® Express Peptide ES C18 HPLC ColumnExpress columns?

    1 answer
    1. While operating pressures may not exceed the 400 bar (6,000 psi) capability of your traditional instruments, sustained pressures of about 200 bar (3,000 psi) will exceed the recommended pressure for conventional PEEK tubing and fittings at the column inlet. We recommend changing to stainless steel fittings in all high pressure locations and have designed special High Performance HPLC Fittings/Interconnects that will stay tight at pressures of 1,000 bar (15,000 psi) or greater, even when elevated column temperatures are employed.

  3. Can I use product 53307-U Ascentis® Express Peptide ES C18 HPLC Column on any type of HPLC system?

    1 answer
    1. Product 53307-U Ascentis® Express Peptide ES C18 HPLC Column HPLC columns is capable of use on standard HPLC systems as well as UHPLC systems.  This column is packed in high pressure hardware capable of withstanding the pressures used in UHPLC systems.

      Helpful?

  4. Can product 53307-U Ascentis® Express Peptide ES C18 HPLC column be used for LC-MS?

    1 answer
    1. Yes, Express Fused-Core™ particles were designed with LC-MS in mind. Even extremely short column lengths exhibit sufficient plate counts to show high resolving power. The flat van Deemter plots permit resolution to be maintained at very high flow rates to maximize sample throughput. All Ascentis stationary phases have been evaluated for MS compatibility during their development, and the Express phases are no exception. You can expect extremely low column bleed and background while maintaining longest possible column lifetime. A bonus of product 53307-U Ascentis® Express Peptide ES C18 HPLC Column for high throughput UHPLC and LC-MS is that they are extremely rugged and highly resistant to plugging, a very common failure mode for competitor columns.

  6. Is there anything special I need to do to my HPLC system to use product 53307-U Ascentis® Express Peptide ES C18 HPLC Column?

    1 answer
    1. Nothing special is required to use product 53307-U Ascentis® Express Peptide ES C18 HPLC Column. To obtain the full benefits of Ascentis® Express Column, one should minimize dispersion or instrument bandwidth in the HPLC system (tubing, detector flow cell) as well as confirm the detector response system is set at a fast level. For more information, request Guidelines for Optimizing Performance with Ascentis® Express HPLC Columns (T407102).

  9. What is special about product 53307-U Ascentis® Express Peptide ES C18 HPLC Column?

    1 answer
    1. Product 53307-U Ascentis® Express Peptide ES C18 HPLC Column provides a breakthrough in HPLC performance. Based on Fused-Core particle technology, Ascentis® Express columns provide the benefits of sub-2 μm particles but at much lower backpressure.  These benefits include the capability of providing fast HPLC and higher resolution chromatography.  The Fused-Core particle consists of a 1.7 μm solid core and a 0.5 μm porous shell.  A major benefit of the Fused-Core particle is the small diffusion path (0.5 μm) compared to conventional fully porous particles. The shorter diffusion path reduces axial dispersion of solutes and minimizes peak broadening.

  10. Can I use product 53307-U Ascentis® Express Peptide ES C18 HPLC Column on a UHPLC system?

    1 answer
    1. Yes.  product 53307-U Ascentis® Express Peptide ES C18 HPLC columns are packed in a way making them suitable for these ultra high pressure instruments.  In fact, product 53307-U Ascentis® Express Peptide ES C18 HPLC Column outperforms sub-2 μm micron columns on many applications since product 53307-U Ascentis® Express Peptide ES C18 HPLC Column provides the benefits of sub-2 μm particles but at much lower back pressure.  These benefits include the capability of providing fast HPLC and higher resolution chromatography.  The Fused-Core particle consists of a 1.7 μm solid core and a 0.5 μm porous shell.  A major benefit of the Fused-Core particle is the small diffusion path (0.5 μm) compared to conventional fully porous particles.
