Poroshell 120 is a high-performance liquid chromatography column that delivers higher resolution and faster separations for proteins and polypeptides, as well as a wide range of small molecules. The column has a particle size of 2.7 µm and provides low back pressure of up to 400 bar, enabling rapid, high-resolution analysis.
This document introduces the Agilent Poroshell 120 column technology, designed to provide high-resolution separations with faster speeds on conventional HPLC instruments. It features a superficially porous particle structure with a 1.7 µm solid core and a 0.5 µm porous shell.
| Solid Core Size | 1.7 µm |
|---|---|
| Porous Shell Thickness | 0.5 µm |
| Maximum Back Pressure | < 400 bar |
| Efficiency vs Conventional | 2X efficiency of 3.5 µm particles |
They deliver higher resolutions and faster separations with up to 50% less back pressure than sub-2 µm columns.
Yes, they are more forgiving due to their standard 2 µm frits which resist plugging.
