Thank you for choosing a Waters CORTECS™ Column. The
CORTECS packing materials were designed specifically for use
with the Waters ACQUITY UPLC
®
System and are manufactured
in a cGMP, ISO 9001 certified plant using ultra pure reagents.
Each batch of CORTECS material is tested chromatographically with
acidic, basic and neutral analytes and the results are held to narrow
specification ranges to assure excellent, reproducible performance.
Every column is individually tested and a Performance
Chromatogram and Certificate of Batch Analysis are provided on
the eCord
™
Intelligent Chip.
CORTECS Columns were designed and tested specifically for use on
the ACQUITY UPLC System. CORTECS Columns will exhibit maximum
chromatographic performance and benefits when used on the
holistically-designed ACQUITY UPLC System since they were created
and designed to operate with it.
