Description
Robust Hydrophobic Interaction Chromatography in FPLC Format
ZetaSep Butyl FF6 from emp BIOTECH is a ready-to-use FPLC column pre-packed with Zetarose Butyl FF6—a 6% cross-linked beaded agarose resin functionalized with butyl (C4H9) ligands. Designed for hydrophobic interaction chromatography (HIC), this column enables salt-dependent purification of proteins, including antibodies and enzymes, under native conditions.
The 100 µm beads ensure optimal flow dynamics, chemical stability, and reproducible retention behavior across a wide range of biomolecules. ZetaSep Butyl FF6 is ideally suited for gradient or stepwise elution in mid-scale HIC workflows.
