Selecting a Pre-Packed Column
1.
Choose
the particle size and pore size
HYDROCELL media are available in 5 µm, 10 µm, 20 µm, 30 µm and 50 µm
particle size of macroporous media for routine ion exchange, hydrophobic
interaction, reversed phase and nucleic acid analysis and purification.
Hydrocell media are also produced nonporous polymeric beads for
high-speed analysis and process control.

2.
Select
the column geometry
HYDROCELL columns are available in several sizes.
We recommend 4.6 mm ID column for routine lab scale use. For
semi-preparative and preparative work choose a larger diameter 7.8 mm,
10 mm or 21.2 mm column. For small scale work or more sensitive
detection, choose a narrow-bore 1.0 or 2.1 mm ID column. All standard Hydrocell
1500, 3000 and NP10 series of columns are constructed of PEEK or
Stainless steel materials with 2 µm Titanium frit.

Match
the Column to the System
Each pre-packed HYDROCELL 1500, 3000 or NP10 series of columns are
produced from 10 µm and 20 µm particle size with average pore size of
500Å, 1500 Å or nonporous PS-DVB polymeric beads for high pressure
systems.
HYDROCELL 30 and 50 series of columns are
designed for medium and low pressure preparative systems. Choose the
column that is suitable for your system environment. This will ensure
that the back pressure generated on the column will not exceed the
pressure limit of your system while operating under higher flow rates.
