CHIRALDEX BP

Astec CHIRALDEX G-BP capillary GC columns incorporate a phase consisting of a 2,6-di-O-pentyl-3-butyryl derivative of γ-cyclodextrin. This phase exhibits high selectivity for amino acids, amines, and furans.

Features

• High selectivity for amino acids, amines, and furans
• Thermally stable

Mechanism Observations

• Alkyl chain on analyte contributes to chiral recognition
• High sample capacity, therefore, primary surface interactions

Size Selectivity

The influence of the inclusion mechanism on selectivity is much reduced and capacities are, therefore, generally higher.
