Chiral Stationary Phases for HPLC
Chirality has become important in the pharmaceutical, chemical and agricultural indistries. The differences which make compounds chiral can produce critically pharmacological effects. As a result, the demand for stereoselective analytical HPLC techniques to evaluate the enantiomeric purity of chiral compounds has increased. To provide the proper column for any special demand, Merck offers different chiral staionary phases:
ChiraDex® for the separation of hydrocarbons, steroids, phenol esters, aromatic amines, heterocycles with 5-membered to 7-membered ring
ChiraSep® DNBPG for the separation of pharmaceuticals, pesticides, flavours with aromatic structure.
ChiraSpher® NT with a broad selectivity and very good selectivity on top for beta-blockers.
