Aminex HPX-87H Column

Description

The Aminex HPX-87H HPLC column is configured for the analysis of carbohydrates in the presence of organic acids, such as volatile fatty acids and carboxylic acids. This dual capability makes it suitable for complex matrices found in fermentation broths, wine, and certain biological samples. The column uses a specific stationary phase that can resolve sugars and acids under conditions involving dilute acid mobile phases, often sulfuric or phosphoric acid. This allows for simultaneous profiling of fermentation products or metabolic intermediates. Researchers select this column when their analytical goals require detecting both carbohydrate and acid constituents within a single chromatographic run.
