Mixed Mode

HPLC Columns for Combined Retention Mechanisms and Complex Separations

The Mixed Mode column category from Dr. Maisch HPLC GmbH includes specialized HPLC phases that combine multiple retention mechanisms such as reversed-phase, ion exchange, and polar interactions. These columns are designed to handle challenging analytes that do not separate well using conventional single-mode HPLC, including zwitterions, charged drugs, strongly polar compounds, and complex mixtures with overlapping properties.

By offering orthogonal selectivity, Mixed Mode columns enable enhanced resolution, retention control, and method flexibility, particularly in pharmaceutical, bioanalytical, and chemical development workflows.

Mixed Mode columns from Dr. Maisch HPLC GmbH offer powerful retention flexibility and enhanced resolution – ideal for solving separation challenges where conventional HPLC phases fall short.
