Laboratory ion Chromatography Column DFUVFKGOP C18 1mL SPE for HPLC

Description

Product Overview

The DFUVFKGOP C18 1mL solid‑phase extraction (SPE) column is a precision‑engineered component designed specifically for ion chromatography (IC) and high‑performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) sample pretreatment. Constructed from high‑purity C18 bonded silica, the column provides a stable, chemically inert surface that reliably retains target analytes while allowing matrix components to be washed away. Its compact 1 mL volume fits easily into standard SPE cartridges, making it an ideal choice for laboratories that need to process small sample volumes with high reproducibility.

Key specifications include a packed bed length of 1 cm, an internal diameter of 4.6 mm, and a total column weight of 1.76 ounces. The column dimensions (1.18 × 0.79 × 0.39 inches) ensure compatibility with most laboratory syringe and autosampler setups. Manufactured by DFUVFKGOP, the product meets rigorous quality standards and carries the ASIN B0DNDN38G2 for easy reference.

Usage

This SPE column is intended for use in laboratories performing ion chromatography, HPLC, and related analytical techniques. The typical workflow begins with conditioning the column using pure methanol, followed by a deionized water rinse to activate the C18 phase. After activation, sample solutions are passed through the column at a flow rate of 2–4 mL/min, with the first 3 mL discarded to remove any residual contaminants. The eluate is then collected, filtered, and introduced directly into the ion chromatograph or transferred to an autosampler vial for subsequent analysis.

Because the column is designed for a flat‑placement activation step of 20 minutes, it ensures complete wetting of the stationary phase, which maximizes analyte retention and improves recovery rates. The column’s robust construction also tolerates repeated use with minimal performance degradation, making it suitable for both routine quality‑control testing and research‑intensive applications.

FAQ

How do I activate the C18 column before use?

Begin by drawing 5 mL of high‑purity methanol with a disposable syringe and push it through the column at a flow rate of 2–4 mL/min. Follow with 10 mL of deionized water under the same flow conditions. Allow the column to sit flat for 20 minutes to ensure full activation of the C18 phase.

What flow rate should I use for sample loading?

Maintain a flow rate between 2 and 4 mL/min when loading your sample solution. This range provides optimal contact time between the analytes and the stationary phase, improving recovery while preventing excessive back‑pressure.

Can I reuse the column for multiple samples?

Yes, the column can be reused after proper regeneration. After each sample, flush the column with methanol followed by water to remove residual matrix components. Periodic performance checks are recommended to ensure consistent recovery.

Is the column compatible with autosamplers?

Absolutely. The column’s dimensions and connector design are compatible with most standard autosampler accessories, allowing seamless integration into automated workflows.

What warranty does DFUVFKGOP provide?

DFUVFKGOP offers a one‑year limited warranty covering manufacturing defects. Our customer service team is available to assist with any issues that arise during the warranty period.
