Description

General description

The Ascentis family of columns is the fourth generation of HPLC column technology from Supelco scientists. Ascentis columns are bonded on high purity, 100 Angstrom silica including 3, 5, and 10 micron particle size. Columns are designed for small molecule applications and are scalable from micro columns (1.0 mm I.D.) to preparative dimensions (50 mm I.D.). The family includes C18, C8, Phenyl, Si and embedded polar group phase, RP-Amide.

Ascentis C18 is an extremely stable and reliable first choice HPLC column that gives symmetric peak shape and excellent retention even for difficult compounds.

Application

• A dilute-and-shoot liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry method for urinary 18-hydroxycortisol quantification and its application in establishing reference intervals: This paper details the application of Ascentis^® C18 columns in a clinical setting to measure cortisol levels in urine. The method provides a fast, accurate, and reliable way to assess patient hormonal profiles, critical for diagnosing endocrine disorders (Zhao et al., 2022).


• A Comparative Study on Analysis of Ginsenosides in American Ginseng Root Residue by HPLC-DAD-ESI-MS and UPLC-HRMS-MS/MS: Utilizing Ascentis^® C18, this study compares different analytical methods for quantifying ginsenosides.
