This is the column recommended as the first choice for you to start a new method development as well as a simultaneous analysis of multicomponents ranging from polar to hydrophobic compounds.
Have you ever experienced a peak profile problem with a basic compound?
Have you ever been aware of that your sample may also be a basic compound?
With MGII, the strongest silanol activity suppression achieved by the most advanced technology (Ultimate Polymer Coating), ensuring good peak profile even under neutral condition, the most severe for the peak profile of basic compounds.
What's more, this column due to the relatively higher surface polarity of the packing material can be used for a wide range of samples, from polar down to hydrophobic compounds.
This is the ultimate HPLC column from Osaka Soda to start
with.
This is the first choice. CAPCELL PAK C18 MGII is what we recommend to you.
As a C18 column, MGII positions at moderate hydrophobicity and high polarity. It was developed to cover a wide range of applications of acidic-neutral-basic compounds, from low to high polar compounds. Easiest to see that the residual silanol activity was definitely controlled with MGII by showing the chromatogram of a basic compound, Amitriptyline under neutral mobile phase conditions in the Validation Sheet.
There is an equivalent selectivity with the tradition lineup of 5µm and 3µm products and method transfer is possible.
Here is a case of method transfer and of shortening time of analysis by increasing the flow rate by taking an example of analysis of DNPH-aldehyde using CAPCELL PAK C18 MGⅡ S2.

On the vertical axis of the Van Deemter plot on Figure 1. the Theoretical Height values are plotted. The lower the value the separation is the better.
The horizontal axis shows the corresponding values for Linear Velocity.
We have plotted values for 3 different batches of the new CAPCELL PAK C18 S2 and 4 other sub-2 micron C18 particles from competitor companies.
On Figure 2. all the 3 lots of the new CAPCELL PAK C18 S2 column exhibit high column efficiency and equivalent column pressure to the competitor products.
Chart 1. lists the Theoretical Plate Numbers to the different columns.
The superior reproducibility of the results between 3 different lots of CAPCELL PAK C18 S2 column is remarkable. We have achieved this by utilizing our strictly controlled particle manufacturing skills and the special column packing techniques acquired by decades of practice and improvements.
The “Oligonucleotide Ladder Standard” is separated on CAPCELL PAK C18 MGII S2(2.0 mm i.d. x 100 mm. A mild gradient is employed

Why do we insist on the analysis of basic compounds in a neutral condition?
Because drugs and physiologically active substances often have basic sites, many of our customers who employ chromatography, including pharmaceutical manufacturers,
asked for columns providing excellent peak profiles for basic compounds.
Since MGII has succeeded in providing sharp peaks even under the neutral condition, there is no need to set up specific conditions for analysis even for basic compounds. MGII simply achieves your goals your way.

When you choose a column, what do you care about most?
Isn't it separation, good peak profile and low pressure?
These factors have been compared. MGII has a higher number of theory plate, with a tailing factor most closed to 1 and lower pressure, presenting an excellent balance of the three factors.
It is easy to handle even when you are using the
HPLC for the first time.
