VP-ODS Columns
The high performance, validated octadecysilyl columns were developed to meet GLP/GMP requirements in pharmaceutical and quality control laboratories.

Shimadzu's VP-ODS columns are backed by a comprehensive validation package including a physical properties certificate of compliance, a chromatographic performance certificate of compliance, and column performance report. Shimadzu VP-ODS columns are produced under strict manufacturing procedures to ensure a high degree of column-to-column as well as batch-to-batch reproducibility. Use of silica particles with extremely low metal content and efficient end-capping results in superior peak shape, even for acidic, basic or chelating compounds. The high NTP-to-operating pressure ratio enables increased flow rates to shorten analysis time without sacrificing chromatographic performance.

Shimadzu's VP-ODS columns are available in a variety of analytical as well as guard column sizes. Convenient three-column kits containing columns made from different silica lots and independently synthesized batches are also available to validate method ruggedness.
