L10

Altin Silica is manufactured using ultra-pure silica gel with low metal content. It delivers consistent retention and high efficiency for polar molecules in non-aqueous, normal-phase mobile systems.
L3

Altin Amino is chemically bonded with aminopropyl groups to excel in carbohydrate and sugar testing. It offers dependable retention for polar compounds across normal-phase and weak anion-exchange applications.
L8

Altin C18 AQ is engineered to prevent phase collapse during 100% aqueous runs. It provides stronger retention for polar compounds compared to standard C18 phases, making it a reliable choice for polar molecule routine testing.
L1

Altin C8 AQ combines moderate hydrophobic retentivity with complete stability in high-aqueous mobile phases. It enhances retention for polar compounds without phase collapse, ensuring reproducible results for routine aqueous methods.
L7

Altin RP Amide features an embedded amide linkage that prevents silanol tailing and enhances hydrogen-bonding selectivity. It provides superior peak shapes for acidic, basic, and phenolic analytes.
L60

Altin Phenyl Hexyl features a hexyl alkyl spacer that provides complementary selectivity to standard C18 columns. It excels in separating aromatic molecules, nitroaromatics, and compounds with strong dipoles in routine workflows.
L11

Altin PFP incorporates highly electronegative fluorine atoms on a phenyl ring to provide orthogonal retention. It is effective for halogenated compounds, positional isomers, and basic drugs in routine quality assurance.
L43

Altin HILIC is tailored for retaining strongly polar and ionic molecules that show no retention on standard reversed-phase columns. It operates in high-organic mobile phases for excellent MS sensitivity and routine method reliability.
L3

Altin C1 features a non-polar methyl stationary phase designed for applications requiring minimal retention. It is ideal for the rapid analysis of strongly hydrophobic molecules, proteins, or large peptides where standard C18 phases exhibit excessive retention times.
L13

Altin C2 utilizes a short ethyl alkyl chain to offer significantly lower retention compared to C8 or C18 columns. It enables fast analysis times and excellent peak shape for lipophilic compounds and bio-molecules requiring gentle elution conditions.
L16

Altin C4 is engineered for biomolecule separations where reduced hydrophobic interactions prevent sample denaturation and irreversible binding. It provides sharp resolution and high recovery for hydrophobic proteins and peptides in routine testing environments.
L26

Altin C6 features a hexyl bonded phase that provides unique selectivity and moderate retention. It serves as an effective alternative when C18 or C8 columns yield overly long run times or incomplete resolution of closely eluting analytes.
L15

Altin C30 utilizes long C30 alkyl chains to deliver enhanced molecular shape recognition. It excels in resolving closely related structural isomers, carotenoids, and fat-soluble vitamins under routine testing conditions.
L62

Altin Diol features vicinal diol groups bonded to ultra-pure silica, offering a stable alternative to bare silica for normal-phase separations. It provides gentle polar interactions and minimal non-specific binding for proteins and small molecules.
L20

Altin SCX is engineered with strong sulfonic acid functional groups to retain positively charged organic bases, amines, and peptides via ionic interaction. It provides reproducible retention for routine ion-exchange methods.
L9

Altin SAX utilizes quaternary ammonium groups to provide strong, permanent positive charges for retaining organic acids, nucleotides, and inorganic anions in routine quality control environments.
L14

Altin Biphenyl provides alternative selectivity to alkyl phases by leveraging strong pi-pi electron interactions. It is designed for resolving aromatic isomers, pharmaceuticals, and conjugated compounds requiring enhanced retention.
