Waters launches ACQUITY PREMIER Columns for chromatographic analyses

Designed for the analytical laboratory seeking to exercise greater control over their chromatographic separations, the columns improve sample throughput, assay-to-assay reproducibility and overall confidence in analytical results

Waters Corporation recently introduced equity PREMIER Columns, a new family of premium sub-2-micron columns featuring MaxPeak High-Performance Surface (HPS) technology. The columns are for use with any brand of the UHPLC system and can measurably improve data quality by mitigating the loss of sample analytes due to analyte to-surface interactions. Designed for the analytical laboratory seeking to exercise greater control over their chromatographic separations, the columns improve sample throughput, assay-to-assay reproducibility, and overall confidence in analytical results.

“Analyte loss due to nonspecific adsorption is a significant problem that deserves more attention because of the cost of wasted effort and lost productivity. Most of the time, scientists don’t even know what they are missing. There are workarounds but they come with their own problems,” said Erin Chambers, VP, Chemistry, Waters Corporation.
