For reliable, general purpose cyano columns, choose the base-deactivated silica Thermo Scientific™ Hypersil™ BDS Cyano LC Columns. These economical columns feature reduced silanol activity and provide exceptional reliability for QA/QC labs. Built on the renowned Hypersil silica backbone, the base-deactivated silica is one of the most popular packing materials available. For more challenging separations that require improved chromatographic performance, use Thermo Scientific™ Hypersil GOLD™ Cyano LC Columns as an alternative.
In reversed phase, they offer different selectivity compared to C18 or C8 phases
In normal phase, they are less retentive than silica columns
