ACE Method Development Kits

  • ACE Method Development Kits group together columns with different mechanisms of interaction to maximise selectivity and improve the likelihood of separating difficult or closely related analytes in mixtures.
  • Screening columns containing different bonded phases under the same mobile phase conditions can help you achieve your desired separation more quickly, therefore increasing productivity.
  • Highly cost effective to promote bonded phase investigation as part of anintelligent method development strategy, ACE Method Development Kits are available for the same price as a single column.
  • ACE HPLC/UHPLC columns have earned a well deserved reputation for delivering excellent efficiency, reproducibility and lifetime.

ACE phases are widely recognized to offer outstanding reproducibility. To aid method validation, a convenient kit containing three columns of the same bonded phase and dimensions, packed with three different batches of silica is available. This enables the chromatographer to rapidly confirm separation reproducibility. Method validation Kits are available for all phases and column dimensions.
