The C18 column is a type of liquid chromatography column used for the separation and purification of a wide range of organic compounds. It consists of a stationary phase made up of silica particles that have been chemically modified with octadecyl (C18) functional groups. The C18 column is a commonly used tool in analytical chemistry and biochemistry for the analysis and purification of various substances, such as drugs, peptides, and other small molecules.

The monosaccharide composition of MLPs was determined through high-performance liquid chromatography. (1) Pre-treatment: An appropriate amount of the sample was taken in a hydrolysis tube; 4 mol/L of TFA (trifluoroacetic acid) was added to 1 mL, and hydrolyzed at 120 °C for 2 h. After removing the sample, it was blow-dried under nitrogen.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
