Inertsil ODS-2 columns have a pore size of 150 Å offering symmetric peaks for bases, acids with low pressure. When Inertsil ODS-2 was introduced in 1987s, this HPLC transformed the entire industry. Inertsil ODS-2 was the first HPLC phase created using ultra high purity silica, which produced superior base deactivation. Until this phase was eclipsed by the performance of it’s sibling Inertsil ODS-4, it was GL Sciences’ most popular phase and continues to be used widely and reliably for long established methods in pharmaceutical and environmental labs. We recommend Inertsil ODS-4 columns for all new method development.
