Increased Stability of Discovery Bio Wide Pore C5 Over Conventional C4

After 25,000 column volumes (222 gradient cycles) were passed through the column, the Discovery BIO Wide Pore C5 showed very little change in efficiency. The competitive C4 column showed a significant loss of efficiency, as much as 50%.

Column: Discovery BIO Wide Pore C5, 5cm x 4.6mm, 5 µM; Mobile Phase: (A) 0.1% TFA in H2O : MeCN (95:5), (B) 0.1% TFA in H2O : MeCN (25:75); B 2 mL/min; Temp: 35 °C; Detection: 220nm; Injection: 5 µL; Sample: Protein/Peptide Test Mix; Gradient: 0-20% B in 20 min
