FAMEWAX
FAMEWAX Columns (USP G16) (fused silica)
Polar phase; Crossbond polyethylene glycol
- Application-specific columns for FAMEs, specially tested with a FAME mixture.
- Temperature range: 20 °C to 250 °C.
Similar Phases: Omegawax, AT-AquaWax, AT-FAME
The FAMEWAX polyethylene glycol stationary phase is specially tested with a polyunsaturated FAMEs mix to ensure resolution of
the omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids of interest. FAMEs such as methyl eicosapentenoate (C20:5) and methyl docosahexaenoate
(C22:6), found in nutraceutical ingredients and products such as marine oils, also are resolved. FAMEWAX columns offer excellent
resolution of polyunsaturated FAMEs with significantly reduced analysis times compared to traditional Carbowax stationary
phases. In fact, analysis times of less than 10 minutes are possible!
