Why Choose ACE EXCEL C18?

The ACE EXCEL C18 column is engineered for laboratories that demand consistent, reliable results across pharmaceutical, environmental, food safety, and clinical analysis. The ultra-high purity silica minimizes unwanted secondary interactions, ensuring symmetrical peak shapes for both acidic and basic compounds.

With a pressure rating of 1000 bar, ACE EXCEL columns bridge the gap between conventional HPLC and UHPLC. You can run the same column chemistry across both platforms without method redevelopment — saving time and reducing validation costs.

Applications:

• Pharmaceutical impurity profiling and drug substance analysis
• Environmental contaminant screening (pesticides, PAHs)
• Food and beverage quality testing
• Clinical and bioanalytical sample analysis
• Method development and validation across HPLC/UHPLC platforms

Available Dimensions:

ACE EXCEL C18 columns are available in multiple ID formats (2.1 mm, 3.0 mm, 4.6 mm) and lengths (50 mm to 250 mm), suitable for analytical, narrow-bore, and micro-bore applications.

Compatible guard columns and method development kits (containing three batches of the same phase) are available on request for column validation.
