NUCLEOSIL® is a family of totally porous spherical silicas with a very pure and uniform SiO2 structure
- Wide acceptance as routine packings for very different fields of chromatography
- One of the first spherical silicas used in HPLC
- Developed in the early seventies, it became a world-renowned HPLC packing
- Still found in many analytical and preparative application
- An absolutely reliable choice in HPLC
- The largest variety of modified HPLC silicas available on the market
