The heart of ion chromatography

The column lies at the heart of ion chromatography (IC). Without an appropriate column, even the most powerful IC system will not deliver accurate and reliable results. That's why Metrohm provides a wide range of IC columns that enable you to perform precisely the analysis you need.

Ion chromatography columns from Metrohm:

More than 30 years of experience

  1. Separation columns and guard columns for anions, cations, organic acids, carbohydrates, and other analytes
  2. Preconcentration columns for trace analysis
  3. Specific columns for dedicated applications
  4. Sample preparation cartridges
  5. Specific columns for microbore ion chromatography
  6. Trap columns for eluent and sample purification

Separation columns from Metrohm

Our columns form the essential part of high-performance analysis of ions and polar substances by ion chromatography. Ion chromatography columns from Metrohm make use of the known separation mechanisms such as:

  • ion exchange
  • ion exclusion
  • ion pair formation

Anion exchange column resins and cation exchange column resins are the most common stationary phases for the analysis of a broad range of analytes.  

Limitless application options

No matter what your applications require, Metrohm offers the right separation column for every discipline in ion chromatography:

  • anions with or without suppression
  • cations with or without suppression
  • carbohydrates
  • organic acids
  • amines
  • transition metals
  • amino acids
