Accurately Analyze Metal-Sensitive Compounds with Restek’s New Inert LC Columns
Restek’s new inert LC column technology helps labs improve their analysis of metal-sensitive compounds. A premium inert coating applied to the stainless-steel surface of Restek’s LC columns reduces nonspecific binding of chelating analytes, enabling sensitive analysis and smooth integration of peaks. Combined with Restek’s selective stationary phases, these new inert LC columns are ideal for the analysis of metal-sensitive compounds, such as mycotoxins and organophosphorus pesticides.
Restek's inert LC columns can provide four key benefits:
- Improved peak shape without passivation or mobile phase additives.
- Increased response and analyte recovery, allowing lower detection limits.
- High accuracy and throughput with less variability.
- Less time-consuming conditioning and complicated passivation required.
Restek’s inert LC column technology is available on three column types: Raptor Biphenyl, Raptor ARC-18, and Force Biphenyl. These new columns help bring the benefits of inert technology to labs specializing in small molecule LC-MS/MS workflows.

LCGC’s Year in Review: Highlights in Liquid Chromatography
December 20th 2024This collection of technical articles, interviews, and news pieces delves into the latest innovations in LC methods, including advance in high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), ultrahigh-pressure liquid chromatography (UHPLC), liquid chromatography–mass spectrometry (LC–MS), and multidimensional LC.
Next Generation Peak Fitting for Separations
December 11th 2024Separation scientists frequently encounter critical pairs that are difficult to separate in a complex mixture. To save time and expensive solvents, an effective alternative to conventional screening protocols or mathematical peak width reduction is called iterative curve fitting.
