Overview

Features & Benefits
  • Ideal for high-throughput LC-MS/MS applications with minimal sample preparation.
  • Well-balanced retention profile for better detection and integration of large, multiclass analyte lists.
  • Sterically protected to endure low-pH mobile phases without sacrificing retention or peak quality.
  • Part of Restek’s Raptor LC column line featuring 1.8, 2.7, and 5 µm SPP core-shell silica.
Description

Restek chemists became the first to combine the speed of superficially porous particles (also known as SPP or "core-shell" particles) with the resolution of highly selective USLC technology. This new breed of chromatographic column allows you to more easily achieve peak separation and faster analysis times with existing HPLC and UHPLC instrumentation.

Designed and intended specifically for use on LC-MS/MS systems, the Raptor ARC-18 column offers a well-balanced retention profile without the drawbacks of using an ordinary C18 in the harsh, acidic mobile phases needed for mass spectrometry (MS). Even after extended use in these low-pH (≤ 2.0) conditions, the sterically protected ARC-18 offers consistent retention, peak shape, and response for charged bases, neutral acids, small polar compounds, and more. For the rapid analysis of large, multiclass assays by LC-MS/MS, the acid-resistant Raptor ARC-18 column truly is ahead of the curve.

  • Ideal for use with sensitive detectors like mass spec.

Switch to an ARC-18 column when:

  • You are analyzing large, multiclass lists by LC-MS/MS.
  • Strongly acidic (pH 1–3) mobile phases are required.
