Discovery BIO PolyMA-SCX
Efficient, high-recovery polymer-based cation-exchange columns for protein and peptide separations.
 
Discovery BIO PolyMA-WAX
Efficient, high-recovery polymer-based anion-exchange columns for protein and peptide separations.
 
Discovery BIO Wide Pore C5
Similar retention but increased stability compared to C4 with excellent, no bleed properties for LC-MS. Used for proteins and hydrophobic peptides.
  Now in 0.18mm ID dimensions.
 
Discovery BIO Wide Pore C8
Intermediate hydrophobicity between a C4/C5 and C18 makes it a great starting point for peptide method development. Used for peptides and small proteins.
 
Discovery BIO Wide Pore C18
The most hydrophobic BIO Wide Pore phase. Excellent for synthetic and natural peptides and peptide mapping.
Now in 0.18mm ID dimensions.

Technical Bulletin:
Peptide Separations on a Stable, Aqueous-Compatible C18 Column

Most C18 HPLC columns undergo phase collapse in 100% aqueous mobile phases with concomitant loss of retention. This causes a problem when trying to analyze very polar compounds. This Technical Bulletin describes how Discovery BIO Wide Pore C18 columns do not undergo phase collapse, and can be used in 100% aqueous conditions. The implications for polar peptides and peptides mapping is described.
