High-Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) columns are a critical component of HPLC systems, which are widely used in analytical chemistry to separate, identify, and quantify components in a mixture.
HPLC columns consist of a tube packed with stationary phase particles. The choice of stationary phase material and particle size depends on the specific requirements of the separation. The stationary phase interacts with the sample components differently based on their chemical properties, leading to separation.
There are several types of HPLC columns:
Normal Phase Columns: In normal phase HPLC, the stationary phase is polar (such as silica) and the mobile phase is non-polar. This type of column is often used to separate compounds based on differences in polarity.
Reverse Phase Columns: In reverse phase HPLC, the stationary phase is non-polar (such as C18-bonded silica) and the mobile phase is polar. Reverse phase HPLC is the most commonly used mode and is suitable for separating non-polar and moderately polar compounds.
Ion Exchange Columns: These columns separate ions based on their charge. They contain a stationary phase with charged functional groups that interact with ions in the mobile phase.
Size Exclusion (Gel Filtration) Columns: These columns separate molecules based on their size. Smaller molecules penetrate the pores of the stationary phase beads more deeply, resulting in longer retention times compared to larger molecules.
Affinity Columns: These columns use specific interactions such as antigen-antibody or enzyme-substrate interactions to separate analytes.
HPLC columns come in various dimensions (length, diameter, and particle size) depending on the analytical requirements. They are typically made of stainless steel, glass, or polymer materials.
Proper care and maintenance of HPLC columns are essential to ensure optimal performance and longevity. Regular flushing with appropriate solvents and following recommended usage guidelines can help prevent column degradation and maintain separation efficiency.

The ALPHA series represents a high performance C18, C8, CN., Phenyl and Amino phase based on a new type of silica gel developed to show better retention, greater selectivity and high loadability, caused by its exceptionally high surface area. The bonding density is chosen with respect to optimal selectivity for both hydrophilic and hydrophobic compounds. enabling even the use of 100% aqueous eluents. The end capping technology minimizes residual silanol groups to an amount which is below the detectable level. Silanol groups have negative effects on peak symmetry, particularly in case of basic compounds, and on chemical phase robustness.
