GromSil 100 Octyl-4 FE

C8 Reversed-Phase Column with Full Endcapping for Improved Peak Shape and Reproducibility

GromSil 100 Octyl-4 FE is a reversed-phase HPLC column from Dr. Maisch HPLC GmbH, based on high-purity, fully porous silica with a 100 Å pore size and bonded with octyl (C8) ligands. The phase features full endcapping (FE) to suppress residual silanol activity, enhancing peak symmetry and minimizing tailing — especially for basic or ionizable analytes.

With moderate hydrophobic retention, this column offers shorter run times compared to C18 phases while maintaining strong selectivity and efficiency for small to mid-sized molecules.

This fully endcapped C8 phase from Dr. Maisch HPLC GmbH ensures reliable, reproducible performance — ideal for reversed-phase separations requiring robust peak shape and moderate retention.

Key Features:

  • Octyl (C8) bonded reversed-phase phase with full endcapping – USP L7

  • Fully porous silica with 100 Å pore size

  • Excellent peak shape for basic and polar compounds

  • Reduced analysis time due to lower hydrophobic retention

  • Available in 3 µm, 5 µm, and 10 µm particle sizes

Typical Applications:

  • Basic drug substances, pharmaceutical impurities, and metabolites

  • Reversed-phase LC-MS and UV detection workflows

  • Method development with a focus on peak symmetry and retention control

  • Routine QC analysis of medium-hydrophobic analytes
