The ChiraDex® product range from Merck includes top quality HPLC columns for enantiomer analysis.
The stationary phase is characterized by broad enantioselectivity and can be used for the separation of enantiomers of numerous different classes of substances. ChiraDex® is based on β-cyclodextrin covalently linked to spherical particles of silica, and is well suited for the chiral separation of hydrocarbons, steroids, phenol esters and derivatives, aromatic amines, and heterocycles with a 5-membered ring to 7-membered ring. Simply composed RP-eluents can be used in most separations.
