The Metrosep Carb 2 - 150/4.0 IC column is particularly suitable for the determination of carbohydrates using alkaline eluents and pulsed amperometric detection. The anion exchanger column is based on a styrene-divinylbenzene copolymer. It is stable in the range of pH = 0 - 14 and separates monosaccharides and disaccharides. It is also suitable for the analysis of sugar alcohols, anhydrous sugars, oligosaccharides, etc. The column capacity has been optimized to enable the combination of rapid separations and excellent separation properties.
