Lux columns are offered with two chiral stationary phases (CSPs), both of which use coated derivatised cellulose as the chiral selector
Luna PFP(2) columns are said to be ideal for pharmaceutical and natural products research and are particularly useful in taxane analysis.
"These new Luna columns resolve the reproducibility issues that have plagued difficult separations involving multiple selectivity mechanisms," commented Jason Lam, brand manager for Phenomenex.
"The unique manufacturing and quality control of our ultra-pure silica ensure batch reproducibility and column ruggedness - this means the selectivity advantages of the PFP ligand can finally be exploited.".
The new Luna PFP(2) columns are available packed with 3 or 5um particles and are offered in many different dimensions.
