Save Time: 2 to 3 times faster than fully porous particles

Increased Flexibility: Highly compatible with TFA and formic acid mobile

phases for efficient LC/MS analysis

Greater analytical confidence: Each batch is tested with a rigorous peptide

mix to ensure suitability and reproducibility

Decrease the diffusion time for macromolecules and limit the diffusion path!

The particle has a solid core (1.7um) and porous outer layer with a 0.5um diffusion path

Reduces secondary interactions & enables selective separation for a wide range of

peptides.
