Phenomenex, Inc. (Torrance, California), a global leader in the research and manufacture of advanced technologies for the separation sciences, has received a 2010 R&D 100 award for its Kinetex core-shell HPLC column technology. The awards, determined by an independent judging panel and the editors of R&D Magazine, recognize the 100 most technologically significant products introduced during the past year.
2010 marks the fifth consecutive year in which Phenomenex has been recognized with the award. “This reflects the depth of our product development pipeline and the fast pace at which we are able to bring new technologies to market,” said president and CEO Fasha Mahjoor.
“The R&D 100 Awards have always represented some of the most innovative concepts to reach the marketplace in the past year. 2010 is no exception, and we had a particularly strong field of entries for the judges to evaluate,” said Rita Peters, editorial director of R&D Magazine.
R&D 100 award winners will be recognized at the annual banquet on November 11, 2010 in Orlando, Florida.
The Complexity of Oligonucleotide Separations
January 9th 2025Peter Pellegrinelli, Applications Specialist at Advanced Materials Technology (AMT) explains the complexity of oligonucleotide separations due to the unique chemical properties of these molecules. Issues such as varying length, sequence complexity, and hydrophilic-hydrophobic characteristics make efficient separations difficult. Separation scientists are addressing these challenges by modifying mobile phase compositions, using varying ion-pairing reagents, and exploring alternative separation modes like HILIC and ion-exchange chromatography. Due to these complexities, AMT has introduced the HALO® OLIGO column, which offers high-resolution, fast separations through its innovative Fused-Core® technology and high pH stability. Alongside explaining the new column, Peter looks to the future of these separations and what is next to come.
