Brava C18-BDS

Brava C18-BDS – Base-Deactivated Reversed-Phase Column for Improved Peak Shape

Brava C18-BDS is a reversed-phase HPLC column based on high-purity, fully porous silica and modified with octadecyl (C18) groups combined with base deactivation (Base Deactivated Silica) technology. This phase minimizes silanol interactions, providing sharper peak shapes, especially for basic compounds. Designed for robust performance in routine and regulated environments, Brava C18-BDS is ideal for pharmaceutical and general-purpose reversed-phase applications requiring high reproducibility and selectivity.

Brava C18-BDS offers enhanced peak shape and consistent retention – the ideal choice for reliable reversed-phase chromatography involving basic analytes.
