Safeguard existing acetonitrile supplies

EMD columns conserve existing acetonitrile supplies by reducing the required flow rate by 44%. These columns have an internal diameter of just 3mm – that’s 1mm narrower than conventional columns. Although the flow rate is diminished, it remains within the guidelines of the European and US Pharmacopoeia. What’s more, results are as accurate as ever. Laboratories can also make the best use of their acetonitrile supplies by switching to methanol as an organic solvent. When used with EMD Chromolith HPLC columns, methanol performs as well as acetonitrile. This frees up precious acetonitrile for other important applications.
