DESCRIPTION
The Epic™ Phenyl phase is π-basic (electron donating) and is similar in overall retention to alkyl phases. The alternate selectivity exhibited by phenyl phases is explained by the π-π interactions available through the phenyl ring. Compounds that exhibit this alternate selectivity on the Epic Phenyl phase include antibiotics such as tetracycline, moderate bases such as anesthetics, some acidic compounds such as quinoline antibiotics and nucleosides. The Epic high-density bonding technology delivers superior performance, durability and enhanced lot-to-lot reproducibility. Epic Phenyl offers a truly superior phenyl-based interaction for enhanced chromatographic performance.
