Ultra Aqueous C18 Columns (USP L1)

The Ultra line represents Restek’s broadest selection of stationary phases on a single silica support. Made of high-purity, type-B silica that minimizes activity and creates high-density bonding, these columns are designed for selective and reliable HPLC applications.

The Restek Aqueous C18 is a rugged, reversed-phase column with a well-balanced retention profile. It can effectively retain more types of solutes than a conventional C18 and is ideal for multicomponent LC-MS analyses. The general-purpose Aqueous C18 boasts high reproducibility and compatibility with many mobile phase conditions—even 100% aqueous. And when used with a gradient, it eliminates the all-too-common issue of multiple compounds eluting near the column void time.
