Thermo Fisher Scientific Hypersil PREP BDS C8 XL HPLC Column Repacking Service

Ensure optimal chromatography performance with our Thermo Scientific™ Hypersil™ PREP BDS C8 XL HPLC column repacking service. Choose ExtendedLife (XL) preparative column hardware during your initial column purchase to be eligible for repacking services. All XL preparative columns are equipped with Dynamic Axial Compression technology to increase column lifetime. Return your XL column to Thermo Fisher to have it refreshed with base deactivated C8 media with lower hydrophobicity without paying for new hardware.

XL Column Repacking Service

Choose XtendedLife Hardware at Initial Purchase

• Improves column lifetime by incorporating an internal Dynamic Axial Compression (DAC) system, which ensures that constant tension is applied to the media and eliminates the risk of void formation during column use.
• High-quality media yields excellent lot-to-lot performance.
• Compatible with SFC upon request.
• Available in dimensions up to 50mm i.d.

When column performance is past optimal, use the XL repack service:

• Pay for just the media, not the hardware.
• Enjoy cost savings over time compared to purchasing standard hardware.
• Return your column to Thermo Fisher to have it repacked and sent back to you.
• After completing your purchase, our team will reach out to you with instructions on how to return your column.

Stationary Phase Details

Similar selectivity, less retention than C18 columns.

• Successful retention and separation of moderately hydrophobic analytes.
• Ideal for fatty acids, which are too hydrophobic for analysis using C18 columns.
• Base deactivated silica.
• C8 (USP L7) selectivity.
• pH stable from 2 to 8.
• Maximum temperature of 60°C.

Faster Separations

• Higher analytical throughput compared to C18 alkyl chain chemistry.
• Quicker compound elution due to reduced hydrophobic interactions.
