Description
OPTIMA 17 MS is a gas chromatography capillary column with an internal diameter of 0,25 mm, a film thickness of 0,25 µm and a length of 60 m. Built for GC separation tasks, this capillary column combines a narrow-bore 0,25 mm ID with an extended 60 m path length for methods that require additional resolving power or longer retention windows. The OPTIMA 17 MS phase name identifies the stationary phase on the capillary wall, and the stated film thickness of 0,25 µm completes the dimensional specification needed for method alignment. Available as a single unit from manufacturer Macherey-Nagel, the column is intended for GC systems that accept 0,25 mm ID capillary columns. Laboratories often choose the 60 m configuration when protocols demand higher separation efficiency or when complex sample matrices benefit from increased column length. Clear indication of internal diameter, film thickness and length facilitates correct ordering and instrument setup. The product is supplied as one capillary column for direct use in GC chromatography workflows that specify these OPTIMA 17 MS dimensions.
This article is part of GC capillary columns, in GC columns & accessories.

Questions about OPTIMA 17 MS, 0.25 mm ID, 0.25 µm, 60 m
What is this article?
OPTIMA 17 MS, 0.25 mm ID, 0.25 µm, 60 m is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Macherey-Nagel for laboratory use. It sits in GC capillary columns, inside GC columns & accessories, in Chromatography equipment.
A GC capillary column is specified by the phase, the length, the internal diameter and the film thickness. A thicker film retains longer and takes a higher load. A narrow bore gives sharper peaks and needs a cleaner sample. The maximum temperature of the phase is a hard limit.
A GC capillary column is a long open tube with a stationary phase coated on the wall. The sample is a vapour, carried by gas. The phase, the film thickness, the length and the internal diameter decide which compounds separate and how long it takes. A liner is the glass sleeve in the injector. It is a consumable: it collects the non-volatile dirt. The septum and the syringe are the other parts that leak or shed. Compound identity sits on PubChem under IUPAC names.
