Adsorbosphere XL Carbohydrate AX is a specialty HPLC column designed for strong anion exchange (SAX) chromatography with a focus on carbohydrate, sugar alcohol, and organic acid analysis. Based on high-purity, fully porous silica, this column features a chemically bonded strongly basic anion exchange group, enabling the retention and separation of negatively charged analytes under aqueous conditions.
As part of the XL (Extended Lifetime) series, it offers enhanced stability, reproducibility, and longer column life — especially useful in high-throughput or regulated environments.
Adsorbosphere XL Carbohydrate AX combines robust SAX functionality with extended lifetime performance – ideal for high-sensitivity sugar and acid analysis in demanding chromatographic workflows.
