USP DESIGNATIONS – BIOHPLC COLUMNS ONLY<br />
For a full listing of USP designations for all HPLC columns, please consult the <strong>Agilent</strong> catalog or www.agilent.com.<br />
The US Pharmacopeia (USP) is a standard source for many pharmaceutical methods that specifies columns by packing materials rather than<br />
by manufacturer. Listed below are the recommended <strong>Agilent</strong> <strong>Technologies</strong> columns suitable for most LC methods listed with the USP.<br />
