ReproSil XBD

Base-Deactivated Silica Columns for Superior Peak Shape and Reproducibility

ReproSil XBD is a high-performance HPLC column series from Dr. Maisch HPLC GmbH, featuring base-deactivated silica for improved performance with basic and polar compounds. The base deactivation process reduces silanol activity on the silica surface, leading to enhanced peak symmetry, less tailing, and higher reproducibility — particularly in the analysis of alkaline analytes, amines, and ionizable pharmaceuticals.

Available with standard reversed-phase chemistries such as C18 and C8, ReproSil XBD columns are ideal for use in regulated environments, routine QC, and method validation.

ReproSil XBD columns from Dr. Maisch HPLC GmbH provide stable, silanol-minimized chromatography – the reliable choice for high-precision HPLC involving basic and sensitive analytes.
