Cleaning Method: Polymer-based Columns for Reversed Phase Chromatography (Asahipak)

Please read the column cleaning method for your column.

Asahipak ODP-50 series, Asahipak C4P-50 4D and Asahipak ODP-90 20F

For an efficient cleaning, reverse the flow direction.

Method 1: Basic solvent wash (Apply after using the column under acidic to neutral condition for an extended period of time.)

Introduce 0.1-M aqueous sodium hydroxide solution/acetonitrile = 80/20. Recommended solvent volume to introduce is 5 to 10 times of the column volume.

 

Method 2: Acid solvent wash (Apply after using the column under basic to neutral condition for an extended period of time.)

Introduce 50-mM aqueous phosphoric acid solution/acetonitrile = 90/10. Recommended solvent volume to introduce is 5 to 10 times of the column volume.

 

Method 3: Organic solvent wash (Apply after using the column under highly aqueous condition for an extended period of time.)

Introduce water/acetonitrile = 20/80. Recommended solvent volume to introduce is 5 to 10 times of the column volume.

(Attention)

Keeping the washing solution in the column for a long time will lead to column deterioration. Please replace the washing solution with the eluent immediately after cleaning.
