Reprospher 200 C18-Aqua

Wide-Pore Reversed-Phase Column for Polar Biomolecules and 100% Aqueous Elution

Reprospher 200 C18-Aqua is a reversed-phase HPLC column from Dr. Maisch HPLC GmbH, based on high-purity, fully porous silica with a 200 Å pore size and bonded with octadecyl ligands featuring a polar surface modification. This design prevents phase collapse under highly aqueous conditions and enhances retention of polar or hydrophilic biomolecules such as peptides and small proteins. With strong hydrophobic retention and excellent peak symmetry, this column is ideal for LC-MS-compatible methods requiring 100% water or high water content in the mobile phase.

This wide-pore Aqua-compatible phase from Dr. Maisch HPLC GmbH ensures robust, reproducible separations of polar biomolecules under aqueous conditions – ideal for challenging reversed-phase applications in life sciences and bioanalysis.

Key Features:

  • C18 bonded phase with Aqua-modified surface – USP L1 classification

  • Wide-pore (200 Å) silica for peptides, proteins, and hydrophilic macromolecules

  • Stable performance in 100% aqueous eluents

  • Enhanced retention of polar analytes and minimal peak tailing

  • Available in 3 µm and 5 µm particle sizes

Typical Applications:

  • Peptides, polar proteins, and small hydrophilic biomolecules

  • Bioanalytical workflows with high water content

  • LC-MS methods for water-soluble pharmaceutical substances

  • Method development for early-eluting compounds in reversed-phase HPLC
