Micro LC Columns

Phenomenex offers a full range of solid supports, including core-shell, organo-silica fully porous, and thermally modified fully porous particles available in a low flow micro LC format. The morphology of the solid support has a significant impact on the resulting material characteristics and column performance.

Our micro columns are manufactured with hardware and surface chemistries specifically engineered to serve as reliable analytical tools for your analysis and available in .5 mm, .3 mm, and new .15 mm internal diameters (IDs). 

Phenomenex Micro Low Flow Columns Offer:

High Sensitivity and Resolution: Micro LC columns are designed to provide high sensitivity and resolution, which is essential for analyzing small sample volumes and detecting low-abundance analytes. The reduced column diameter increases the sensitivity of mass spectrometry detection, making micro LC an excellent choice for proteomics, metabolomics, and other omics studies. With our new .15 mm column IDs, the smaller ID further improves to sensitivity and is available in Kinetex C18 and XB-C18 for a variety of reversed phase applications.

Reduced Solvent Consumption: The smaller internal diameter of micro LC columns leads to reduced solvent consumption, which is both cost-effective and environmentally friendly. This is particularly beneficial for laboratories looking to minimize their ecological footprint and operational costs.

Compatibility and Versatility: Phenomenex micro LC columns are compatible with a wide range of LC systems and can be used for various applications, including pharmaceuticals, environmental analysis, food and beverage testing, and more. Their versatility makes them an invaluable tool for diverse analytical needs.

Robust and Reproducible Performance: Engineered with precision, our micro LC columns offer robust and reproducible performance, ensuring consistent results across multiple runs. This reliability is critical for method development and routine analysis, providing confidence in your analytical data.  Additionally, our new micro trap formats offer new solutions with integrated fittings that offer complementary selectivity.

Utilizing Phenomenex micro HPLC columns for analytical separations results in high sensitivity and efficient separations, available in a wide range of particle chemistries and column formats.
