Techsphere is a flexible and cost-efficient HPLC column series, designed for routine reversed-phase applications across various industries. Packed with fully porous, high-purity silica particles, Techsphere columns are available in standard bonded phases such as C18, C8, phenyl, and others—providing reliable retention, good peak symmetry, and broad chemical compatibility.
Ideal for method development, quality control, and training laboratories, Techsphere combines dependable performance with an attractive price-performance ratio.
Techsphere columns offer solid, reproducible HPLC performance – a practical solution for laboratories seeking reliable chromatography at a competitive value.
The product line was aquired by Dr. Maisch HPLC GmbH in 2016 from Grace / Alltech.
