XTerra Prep columns bring the benefits of Hybrid Particle Technology to isolation and purification applications in discovery and development laboratories. XTerra Prep MS columns possess our patented Hybrid Particle Technology, with particles engineered specifically for prep. It allows you to routinely operate at pH 1-12 so you can load up to 60X more onto the column. More capacity results in fewer injections for the same amount of pure material or more material with the same number of injections. In the discovery world, this greater capacity means you can use a shorter column, producing the same amount of material in half the time.

Additional Information
XTerra MS C18 Prep Guard Cartridge, 125Å, 10 µm, 10 mm X 10 mm, 1/pk When you’re hard at work in the lab, it’s easy to overlook the small particulate contaminants that may be lingering in your mobile phase stream. But with the XTerra MS C18 Prep Guard Cartridge, you can better protect your XTerra MS C18 Prep Column from those contaminants. This prep guard cartridge acts as an extra step for the mobile phase stream to flow through. As the mobile phase stream goes through the cartridge, the cartridge picks up contaminants and removes them before they reach your column. Although this column protection solution is no replacement for proper sample preparation, it can help you overcome the need to rapidly reproduce when your column isn’t performing as well as it should. Add the XTerra MS C18 Prep Guard Cartridge to your workflow today. To properly protect your XTerra MS C18 Prep Column from mobile phase contaminants, you also need the Cartridge Holder . This cartridge holder is required for proper installation of the guard cartridge, and it holds the guard cartridge between the mobile phase injector and column. Make sure to purchase this holder as well before checking out if you don’t have it already. The XTerra MS C18 Prep Guard Cartridge is just one of the many incredible products that we offer, but it does solve a common problem in chromatographic analysis. Although you’re supposed to properly purify your sample before performing a separation, small and minuscule contaminants can still be lingering. And if those contaminants stick to your column, they can end up fouling it, resulting in reduced column performance. But with this prep guard cartridge, extended column lifetimes are a certainty. At Waters, we have much more than just prep guard cartridges to protect your precious data. We also offer full LC-MS systems, resources to help improve your workflows and classic chromatography consumables you’ll need to perform separations successfully.
