These new Thermo Scientific MAbPac SCX small particle phase columns were developed for high resolution separations wand orthogonal selectivity for MAb charge variant characterization. Separations using these columns on the bio-inert Thermo Scientific Dionex UltiMate 3000 Titanium LC System revealed high-resolution, fast analysis of MAb variants.
