说明
分析说明
ZIC-HILIC is a densely bonded zwitterionic stationary phase with sulfobetaine functional groups graft-polymerized to silica. The stationary phase has an overall 1:1 charge balance between the permanent positive quaternary ammonium groups close to the silica support and the distal negatively charged sulfonate groups. It has though a slight negative surface charge because of the spatial arrangement. A covalently bonded zwitterionic stationary phase, with permanent strong acidic and basic functionalities, provide hydrophilic partitioning combined with weak ionic interactions and makes the phase virtually pH independent as shown in this analysis.
