COSMOSIL Cholester is a Reversed Phase HPLC Column with Cholestery bonded silica packing material, which provides equivalent hydrophobicity like that of traditional Alkyl group bonded silica packing materials (C18, C30). However, Cholester offers strong stereo selectivity for hydrophobic compounds to yield unique and reproducible separation patterns following the same analytical conditions used with other ODS columns.


Basic Nature

Separation of Alkylbenzene (comparison with Hydrophobicity)

Cholester provides the same hydrophobicity as Alkyl group bonded types (C18, C30). So it is not necessary to change the analytical conditions when they are replaced by Cholester.
