HALO for Hydrophilic Interaction Liquid Chromatography (HILIC)
The new HALO HILIC columns are based on the same Fused-Core particle technology as the popular HALO C18 and C8 phases. All these 2.7um materials from Advanced Materials Technology, are manufactured by ‘fusing’ a 0.5um porous silica layer on to a 1.7um solid silica core. The resulting columns provide faster separations and higher sample throughput, without compromising column efficiency, ruggedness and reliability and with the additional benefit that specialised ultra-high pressure instrumentation is not required.
The unbonded silica HALO HILIC phase can be used for traditional normal-phase separations or for hydrophilic interaction liquid chromatography (HILIC). HILIC is a complimentary method to RP chromatography and is particularly effective for separating highly polar compounds that are not well retained by RP HPLC. It is especially suited to separations using MS detection.
The key features of HALO HILIC include:
  • Unique Fused-Core particle technology
  • Same efficiency as 2um columns at much reduced back pressure
  • Maximum pressure 9000psi (600bar)
  • Use with conventional HPLC systems
  • Orthogonal selectivity to C18
  • Increased retention of polar analytes
  • Increased MS sensitivity
