Thermo Scientific Accucore Biphenyl Reversed Phase HPLC Columns

Description

The Accucore Biphenyl column from Thermo Scientific is a reversed-phase HPLC column featuring a biphenyl functional group bonded to a solid-core silica particle. This unique chemistry provides alternative selectivity compared to alkyl phases like C18, offering enhanced retention and separation for compounds containing aromatic rings through π-π interactions. It is particularly useful for applications such as the analysis of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), certain pharmaceuticals, steroids, and drugs of abuse where aromatic selectivity is beneficial. The solid-core particle construction delivers high efficiency and fast separations with moderate operating pressures. This column serves as a complementary selectivity tool to traditional C18 phases in method development and complex sample analysis.
