NicoShell Columns
NicoShell Columns are AZYP core-shell chiral columns using superficially porous particle technology for high-efficiency, fast chiral separations with controlled backpressure.
What are NicoShell Columns?
NicoShell Columns are AZYP core-shell chiral columns using superficially porous particle technology for high-efficiency, fast chiral separations with controlled backpressure.
Core-shell particles reduce diffusion path length, improving efficiency and peak shape. NicoShell is useful for UHPLC-compatible screening, pharmaceutical QC, bioanalysis, fast impurity methods and method transfer from longer fully porous methods.
Technology, mechanism and applications
Core-shell particles reduce diffusion path length, improving efficiency and peak shape. NicoShell is useful for UHPLC-compatible screening, pharmaceutical QC, bioanalysis, fast impurity methods and method transfer from longer fully porous methods.
- Method development and replacement screening support
- Pharmaceutical QC, impurity profiling and research laboratories
- Typical analytes include APIs, intermediates, ionic compounds, racemates and polar analytes depending on family
- Storage and care: use compatible solvents, filter mobile phases and follow validated laboratory procedures.
