The wide range of Luna phases provides you with the selectivity choices
to optimize parameters such as retention time and resolution. Additionally,
the high surface area (400 m2/g) of Luna materials gives you greater
loadability than most other media. For those challenging purifications
where chromatography is the best option, the Luna family offers an
excellent platform for all purification challenges.
Contact your Phenomenex technical
consultant for bulk media sales.
Luna has found a place as one of the world’s top reversed phase columns because it can help Luna® 5 μm C18 (2)
optimize two important chromatographic properties: resolution and peak shape. The high efficiencies
and bonded phase surface coverage provide for sharp peaks. Whether you need a column for USP Sigma-Aldrich Biotechnology
