Description
Strong Cation Exchange Column for Reliable Protein Separation
ZetaSep SP FF6 from emp BIOTECH is a 5 mL pre-packed FPLC column filled with Zetarose SP FF6—a 6% cross-linked beaded agarose resin functionalized with sulphopropyl (SP) ligands for strong cation exchange (CEX) chromatography. Designed for high-resolution purification of positively charged biomolecules, the column delivers robust and reproducible separation performance in downstream processing workflows.
The column housing is made of polypropylene with 20 µm polyethylene frits and standard 10/32 fittings for seamless integration into common FPLC systems. ZetaSep SP FF6 supports high flow rates (2–10 mL/min) and pressures up to 3 bar, while its chemically stable matrix tolerates a wide range of aqueous buffers.
