This booklet provides general information for all
Agilent ZORBAX, Agilent Pursuit, Agilent Polaris,
and Agilent InfinityLab Poroshell normal-phase
and HILIC columns. Initial sections include
information for both normal-phase and HILIC
columns. Because some method parameters and
column care instructions are different for HILIC
versus normal-phase, those sections are broken
out separately in the last few pages. For additional
information about your specific column or family,
see agilent.com/chem/columnchoices
Getting Started
A QC Column Performance Report, including a test chromatogram, comes
with every Agilent column. The QC test instrument is modified (optimized)
from a standard instrument to minimize extra column volume, so results may
vary from the system used in your lab. This allows a better evaluation of the
column and assures a more consistent product.
