Purospher®STAR Si (5 µm) HPLC Columns

General description
Purospher® STAR Si endcapped, 5 µm HPLC columns offers highest separation efficiency for normal-phase chromatography of low molecular weight compounds soluble in organic solvents.Purospher® STAR Si, 5 µm LiChroCART™ 250-4.6 is a cartridge column which requires a manuCART™ cartridge column holder part number 1.51486.0001. The manuCART™ can be used to hold one cartridge column with or without direct integration of a 4-4 mm guard column. The recommended guard column is Purospher® STAR RP-8 endcapped (5 µm) LiChroCART™ 4-4 part number 1.50249.0001. LiChroCART™ cartridge columns mounted with a manuCART™ cartridge column holder is hand-tight only and have therefore a maximum pressure stability of 250 bar. For higher pressure stability requirements Purospher® STAR Si, 5 µm Hibar® RT 250-4.6 HPLC columns are available part number 1. 51911.0001.The column dimension of 250 mm length x 4.6 mm I.D. is the optimal choice for the HPLC separation of complex samples allowing significant solvent savings and improved sensitivity.Learn more about Purospher® STAR HPLC and UHPLC ColumnsLearn more about the Supelco HPLC Column portfolio and Method development:Brochure: HPLC and UHPLC Column Selection GuideBrochure: A Practical Guide to HPLC – Method Development Guide
