YMC-Pack Polyamine II

YMC-Pack Polyamine II is a silica-based packing bonded with polyamine. It is particularly useful for separation of sugars. The column life of YMC-Pack Polyamine II in aqueous mobile phase is longer than conventional silica-based amino columns, and thus is applicable to separation of oligosaccharides using mobile phase with relatively higher water content. In addition, YMC-Pack Polyamine II can be used to separate ionic compounds with a combination of normal-phase mode and weak anion exchange mode.

Features

Excellent durability

Even in a hard flow durability test using mobile phase that consists only of water, the retention time of sugars changes little.
