ODS-AM is produced in large lots using ultra pure YMC silica as a base material and a multi stage synthesis process. For the derivatisation, monomeric bonding chemistry is applied followed by an extensive endcapping process to reduce the silanol activity.
The resulting ODS-AM packing is extensively tested to ensure compliance with specifications set for very low variations in physico-chemical properties.
Features:
high end analytical C18
tightly specified
long term reproducibility
for method validation
for method registration
The recommended pH range of using YMC-Pack ODS-AM columns is 2-7,5. Flush acid and buffer salts before storage. Store the column in methanol / water = 70/30.
If columns are affected by undesired contaminants and back pressure increases, flush the column with THF. Clogged inlet frits can be cleaned by changing the flow direction or replacement.
