Aminex HPX-87C Column

Description

The Aminex HPX-87C column is an HPLC column intended for general sweetener and carbohydrate analysis. It is commonly employed for separating monosaccharides and disaccharides, making it useful for analyzing products like honey, soft drinks, and processed foods. The column operates effectively with aqueous mobile phases and can be used at controlled temperatures to enhance resolution. Its application extends to quality assurance labs where monitoring sugar composition is critical. The separation is based on the differential interaction of sugar molecules with the column's stationary phase, allowing for the identification and quantification of individual sugar components in a mixture.
