Products and Services

Tosoh Bioscience offers a comprehensive line of pre-packed columns and media for all common modes of liquid chromatography.

TSK GEL is available as bulk polymeric resin or in silica- or polymeric-based pre-packed columns. Columns come in microbore analytical through preparative sizes, with particle sizes of column packings ranging from 2 to 20 micron. TSK-GEL bulk resins are available in 10, 13, and 20 micron particle sizes.

TOYOPEARL chromatography resins are based on a semi-rigid, hydrophilic, macroporous backbone, and are stable over the pH 2-13 range. Particle sizes are 20-50 micron superfine (S) grade for the highest performance, 40-90 micron (M) for economical purification, and 50-150 micron (C) for the largest scale chromatography. Chemistries similar to those of TSK-GEL columns allow seamless scale-up from benchtop to manufacturing suite.

ToyoScreen process development columns are easy-to-use, 1mL and 5mL prepacked columns of your favorite Toyopearl hydrophobic interaction, ion exchange and affinity resins. They can be easily connected to äKTA, FPLC and HPLC systems for performing resin screening, process optimization experiments or microgram purifications.

TSK-GEL, Toyopearl and ToyoScreen are registered trademarks of Tosoh Corporation. äKTA and FPLC are trademarks of Amersham Biosciences Limited.
