Lab-Core™ (LC) is a manual lab-scale low-pressure, Schott- Duran borosilicate glass chromatography column, is an indispensable tool in the purification of proteins and other biomolecules. Their gentle operation, ease of use, costeffectiveness, and versatility make them ideal for a wide range of applications, particularly in the biopharmaceutical industry. By understanding the features and benefits of these columns, researchers and technicians can optimize their purification processes and achieve high-quality results.
Lab-Core™ columns comes with either fixed resin bed height and in combination with one- or two- adapters which facilitates packing for resin bed starting from 1 cm to 20/40/60/80/100/150 cm bed height combinations. Lab-Core™ columns also comes in prepacked filled with size exclusion chromatography resin range with column efficiency testing certificate (Please contact sales person for more information on Lab-Core pre-pack series columns/ Doc No. LTPP-47104907876-012A)
Lab-Core™ Columns available in16 mm, 26 mm & 50 mm column inner diameters range with varying column lengths like 20/40/60/80/100/150 cm for starting any biosimilar projects to generation of clinical trials scale purified biosimilar molecules. Lap-Trap ™ columns are required for high throughput screening of resins and are available with 1ml, 2ml and 5ml column volumes with IEX, HIC and AI resins with pre-testing certifications (Please contact sales person for Lab-Trap™column information/ Doc No. LTC-871070765-012A)
Lab-Core™ columns are very robust and durable with great performance accommodating with all chromatography range media like Ion Exchange (IEX), Figure 1: Lab-Core™ Columns using Borosilicate glass www.lifeforgeventures.com 2 Hydrophobic Interaction (HIC), affinity (AI), Gel permeation or Size exclusion chromatography media.
Lab-Core™ columns shown wide acceptance for virus clearance studies experiments

Lab-Core™ columns shown in figure no. 3, has parts mentioned from 1 to 7, The columns can be used in aqueous solutions and in most organic solvents commonly used in liquid chromatography of macromolecules, with the following exceptions: chlorinated hydrocarbons, acetone and other ketones, aliphatic esters, and phenol. Solutions containing more than 10% sodium hydroxide, 10% hydrochloric acid, other strong mineral acids, or 5% acetic acid should not be used. The jacket is made from acrylic plastic which brings more robustness and stability for chromatographic operations.
Lab-Core™ columns will be made available with various column tube lengths. Kindly be in touch with sales persons for more information

It is advisable to keep spares of nets, support screens, O-rings, and tubes on site at all times. O-rings and filters should be checked regularly for wear. Worn O-rings may not seal properly and overused filter nets can affect distribution. (Kindly be in touch with technical or sales person for more information)
