PicoFrit® Columns: The Ultimate LC-MS Proteomics Platform

At flow rates of nL/min versus mL/min, nanospray offers higher sensitivity with greater signal-to-noise ratio than traditional microspray. Engineered specifically for nanobore-LC, PicoFrit® columns offer the dependability of a pre-packed column with the convenience and efficiency of an integrated frit and tip. Eliminate post-column losses by spraying directly from the column.


PicoFrit® Benefits

PicoFrit tip magnified
  • Eliminates band broadening
  • Sprays directly from column to inlet
  • Minimizes post-column loss
  • Integral frit greatly reduces tip clogging
  • Robust performance compatible with automated systems
  • High-resolution separations yield femtomole sensitivity

The PicoFrit® Advantage

Spraying directly off the column boosts the performance of your mass spectrometer compared to that provided by a column attached to a tip. Less time spent making connections increases efficiency. That's the PicoFrit® advantage.

  • Ion chromatograms for full-scan MS data of 4 angiotensin variants at 25 fmol injected on column
  • The chromatogram at left was obtained using a C18-packed column coupled to a coated emitter with a union
  • The chromatogram at right was obtained using a C18-packed PicoFrit® column (75 µm ID/15 µm tip ID)
  • The PicoFrit column yielded better peak shape with decreased peak width, resulting in higher sensitivity
