Greater Retention and Better Results
Higher efficiency levels in combination with excellent stationary phase coverage and greater particle inert ness, translates to improved separation power for you. Now you can utilize the greater retention of Luna Omega C18 to tackle both easy and difficult separations.
Consistent and Reliable C18 Results
Batch-to-batch and column-to-column, Luna Omega media and columns are designed to be consistent and incredibly accurate tools for your analysis. Each batch and column are quality tested to ensure dependability and reproducibility.
All Purpose HPLC and UHPLC Selectivity
Strong and focused hydrophobic retention, incredible efficiency and valuable inertness of Luna Omega C18 columns make them an excellent choice for small mixtures of compounds differing in hydrophobicity as well as large mixtures of compounds like drug impurity and degradation profiles and natural products.
Higher Efficiency Compared to Other Fully Porous Particles
Luna Omega 1.6 µm, 3 µm, and 5 µm particle columns provide higher efficiencies compared to other silica C18 columns with fully porous particles of the same size due to the absence of micropores within the particles.

Astounding Performance
The undeniably high efficiency levels found in each Luna Omega UHPLC column provide you with the potential of huge gains in method performance. While traditional silica and hybrid fully porous particles claim high performance, when compared to Luna Omega 1.6 μm, they drastically fall short and prevent UHPLC scientists from reaching their UHPLC potential.
Separation Muscle
Our industry leading bonding technologies in conjunction with high efficiency levels ensure excellent stationary phase coverage and improved separation power. Now, with Luna Omega 1.6 μm, you can turn difficult separations into resolution achievements.
Inert Foundation
Luna Omega UHPLC columns contain a unique silica modified using a proprietary, post-synthetic thermal treatment process to provide extraordinary mechanical strength and significantly greater inertness than traditional fully porous and hybrid materials. This greatly minimizes secondary interactions that negatively affect peak shape, allowing for greater method accuracy.
Consistent Results
Batch-to-batch and column-to-column, Luna® Omega media and columns are designed to be consistent and incredibly accurate tools for your analysis. Each batch and column are quality tested to ensure dependability and reproducibility.
