Daicel™ Chiral HPLC Columns

DAICEL chiral chromatography are products identified by the registered trademarks CHIRALCEL®, CHIRALPAK® and CROWNPAK®. DAICEL chiral HPLC columns, the most widely used and referenced chiral chromatography product in the world, are available from our Company in a wide range of sizes for applications ranging from analytical methods and quality control to preparative scale separations.

Daicel provides pharmaceutical and related industries with enantiomeric separation products and services. The company develops and supplies Daicel® chiral columns for High Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) and Supercritical Fluid Chromatography (SFC) systems which are used in numerous applications, including analytical, preparative and pilot scale separations. Daicel also develops and supplies bulk chiral stationary phase media for process scale chromatographic separations.

- Microbore columns (2.1mm I.D.) well suited for LC-MS methodology
- Analytical columns (4.6mm I.D.) and semi-preparative columns (10 & 20mm I.D.)for both High Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) and Supercritical Fluid Chromatography (SFC) systems
- Preparative columns (50 & 100mm I.D.)

A Daicel chiral HPLC column has two remarkable performance characteristics that separate it from all others: wide selectivity and a truly dynamic loading capacity. The combination of the two provides you with a powerful tool that is unique in the industry.

Excellent resolution of racemates:
Daicel chiral columns represent the most effective means of analyzing chiral compounds and obtaining pure enantiomers, i.e., to levels of >99% enantiomeric excess.

Fast, easy method development:
Samples often require no prior derivatization, and Daicel chiral columns can be used directly on standard HPLC or Supercritical Fluid Chromatography instrumentation.

Columns are durable and long lasting:
Daicel chiral columns exhibit a dynamic loading capacity and have been in continual use by a large number of laboratories.

Smooth transition from laboratory to development, pilot plant and production:
Daicel chiral columns offer the ability to scale up in a linear fashion, minimizing changes in methodology and operating conditions.
