The article describes the development of new stationary phases for the analysis of proteins in reversed phase liquid chromatography (RPLC). The goal was to have columns offering high recovery at low temperature, low hydrophobicity and novel selectivity. For this purpose, three different ligands bound onto the surface of superficially porous silica-based particles were compared, including trimethyl-silane (C1), ethyl-dimethyl-silane (C2) and N-(trifluoroacetomidyl)-propyl-diisopropylsilane (ES-LH). These three phases were compared with two commercial RPLC phases.
