Preparation

Nuvia

HR-S media is supplied fully hydrated in 20%

ethanol + 1 M NaCI as a 50% (v/v) slurry. For column
packing, removal of the shipping buffer is recommended.
Small volumes of Nuvia HR-S media are easily washed in
a Büchner funnel with 4–5 volumes of packing buffer. For
large volumes, cycling through 3–4 settling and decanting
steps using the packing buffer is recommended.

Removal of fines from Nuvia HR-S media is not required

due to the narrow particle-size range. If fines have been

generated during handling, resuspend the slurry and

remove the opaque supernatant before sedimentation is

complete. Repeat several times until supernatant is clear.
