Guard Column Cartridges, RP Cyano, 3um, 100A. 2.1mm ID x 10mm Length. Cogent Brand. 5/PK.
Additional Information:
Cogent RP Cyano™ Guard Column Cartridges are designed to protect valuable analytical columns from particulates, contaminants, and strongly retained compounds that can reduce column performance and shorten column lifetime. Packed with the same RP Cyano™ stationary phase used in Cogent analytical columns, these cartridges help maintain method consistency while extending analytical column service life. The stationary phase consists of a three-carbon ligand with a terminal cyano (CN) functional group bonded to ultra-high purity silica, providing the unique selectivity associated with USP L10 chemistry.
68334-PG1 contains five guard column cartridges packed with 3 µm RP Cyano™ particles featuring a 100 Å pore size in a 2.1 mm ID x 10 mm format. Designed specifically to protect 2.1 mm ID RP Cyano analytical columns, these guard cartridges trap particulates and strongly adsorbed contaminants before they reach the analytical column bed. The cartridges are packed in reversed-phase solvents and constructed using stainless steel tubing, stainless steel frits, and durable PEEK frit caps for reliable performance.
These guard cartridges are ideal for pharmaceutical analysis, LC-MS methods, polar and neutral compound separations, routine quality control testing, and method development workflows. Regular replacement of guard cartridges can help preserve analytical column efficiency, retention reproducibility, peak shape, and resolution.
