CSC-Vitesse 507-003 HPLC Guard Column (5 cm × 4.6 mm x 3µm)

Price is for one Vitesse guard column (5 cm × 4.6 mm x 3µm).

HPLC guard columns are short columns or cartridges that, when installed before an analytical or preparative (U)HPLC column, act as a filter to prevent particulates from entering the main column and trap any chemical contaminants with a high affinity for the stationary phase. This filter helps to ensure the integrity of (U)HPLC results and increase data reproducibility by removing chemical impurities that could prevent your main column from effectively retaining target analytes from your sample. A guard column’s ability to retain physical contaminants also greatly increase the lifetime of your main column by reducing the chance of column blockage.
