Description

The user-friendly design of XK columns ensures trouble-free operation with fittings for direct connection to ÄKTA design instruments or other high-performance liquid chromatography systems. The product family is based on a robust design for high reproducibility and accurate results. XK columns are compatible with aqueous solutions and most organic solvents used in liquid chromatography of macromolecules. XK empty columns provide reliable and reproducible separations. The tube material is of borosilicate glass, which allows for visual inspection of the resins bed. The columns are made of biocompatible materials that exhibit excellent chemical resistance. A broad range of column dimensions makes XK columns suitable for many different purification needs. Column packing can be performed using either a packing reservoir or an extra column tube attached with a packing connector. The QuickLock mechanism of the adapter shaft facilitates rapid and easy movement of the adapter, simplifying adjustments of the bed height, disassembly, and cleaning. The design of the adapter plunger gives a uniform flow, which maintains the integrity of the packed bed during operations. An extensive range of spare parts is available, facilitating maintenance.

FAQs

Question: What is the internal diameter of the XK 50/60 column?

Answer:Its bore diameter is 50 mm, with a nominal glass tube length of 60 cm.

Question: What is the XK 50/60 packed-bed capacity with one adapter?

Answer:The one-adapter usable packed-bed volume is about 794–1088 mL over a 40–56 cm bed height.

Question: What type of application benefits from the 50 mm bore?

Answer:The wider bore supports preparative purification workflows requiring larger resin volumes than narrower XK columns.

Application Note

The Cytiva XK 50/60 is a 50 mm internal-diameter empty column for preparative protein chromatography and other low-to-medium-pressure packed-bed separations. Its nominal 60 cm tube provides a broad bed cross-section, supporting substantially higher media volumes than the smaller XK 16 and XK 26 formats. The one-adapter packed-bed range is approximately 794–1088 mL, with adjustable bed heights of 40–56 cm. The borosilicate glass column tube allows visual inspection of the resin bed, and the XK adapter design supports bed-height adjustment and column servicing. The column does not contain chromatography resin or represent a complete purification system. Packing methods, bed homogeneity, appropriate pressure limits, and fluid connections remain central to reliable performance.
