Applications

Higher resolution with HALO 400 Å diphenyl compared to FPP 300 Å diphenyl

HALO 400 Å diphenyl outperforms an FPP 300 Å diphenyl column with higher resolution and 2.7 times lower back pressure. The 400 Å pores allow better access to the bound phase.

High temperature comparison of the HALO 1000 Å phases

Three bound phases (C4, ES-C18 and diphenyl) are now available on surface porous HALO 1000 Å particles. Each phase offers unique selectivity for mAbs, as shown in this high temperature separation of trastuzumab.

Comparison of HALO 1000 Å Diphenyl with the competitor product PolyPhenyl at 40 °C

HALO 1000 Å diphenyl shows improved resolution, retention and peak area compared to a competitor column of 450 Å SPPs with polyphenyl phase. The increased retention clearly shows the advantage of unhindered large pore access to the bound phase. The HALO diphenyl phase can also be operated at 40 °C without any loss of peak area.
