DiatoSorb-W diatomaceous earth is a new alternative for analysts who depend on diatomaceous earth columns and struggle to find consistent product quality and reliable availability.

Restek has developed DiatoSorb-W as a high-performing replacement for the diatomaceous earth that was previously used in their standard and Silcoport W GC packed columns lines. DiatoSorb-W solid support is available in acid-washed (WAW), non-acid washed (WNAW), and high-performance (WHP) varieties, and all DiatoSorb-W solid support undergoes rigorous quality testing to ensure high purity and dependable performance. Virtually unlimited in supply, but only available from Restek, the new DiatoSorb-W offers a reliable alternative for packed column users. Whether you need packed columns or loose packing materials, DiatoSorb-W products from Restek are always available and consistent in quality.

Size Exclusion ChromatographySize exclusion chromatography (SEC) is a liquid chromatographic technique used to separate and identify molecules based on their size, including polymers, proteins, nanoparticles & nucleic acid. SEC is further subdivided into gel filtration chromatography (GFC) and gel permeation chromatography (GPC) when an aqueous or organic mobile phase is used respectively. HPLC-based SEC systems and columns are available for analytical separation alongside SEC spin columns or filters to prep samples for many protocols. Find the best size exclusion chromatography equipment in our peer-reviewed product directory: compare products, check customer reviews and receive pricing direct from manufacturers.Preparative ChromatographyPreparative chromatography equipment is used for purification purposes, separating and collecting compounds eluted from a mixture which can then be subsequently used for further purposes. This can be done in large quantities or small. Preparative chromatography systems are usually low to medium pressure liquid chromatographs that are semi-automated. Explore a range of preparative columns and fraction collectors.

Multiple tecchniques are available for determining particle size, shape and count including dynamic light scattering (DLS), laser diffraction, electrozone (Coulter technique), imaging particle analysis and single particle optical sensing. Determine the density of your material with a gas pycnometer or examine its surface area and porosity with gas adsorption analyzers and mercury porosimeters.
