5 µm non-porous BioPro IEX QF/SF columns offer higher performance when compared to other IEX columns (Figure 5). Due to the low backpressures, higher fl ow rates can often be applied while maintaining the desired resolution. This fact together with the particle robustness and reproducibility makes the 5 µm non-porous exchangers an ideal choice for QC.
Conclusion
The use of smaller, modern particles usually allows shorter analysis times and therefore higher sample throughput for all separation modes typically used in BioLC. With the increasing number of therapeutic biologicals, this is welcomed by R&D as well as QC labs. Modern solutions based
