DiatoSorb-W diatomaceous earth is a new alternative for analysts who depend on diatomaceous earth columns and struggle to find consistent product quality and reliable availability. Restek (USA) has developed DiatoSorb-W as a high-performing replacement for the diatomaceous earth that was previously used in their standard and Silcoport W GC packed columns lines. DiatoSorb-W solid support is available in acid-washed (WAW), non-acid washed (WNAW), and high-performance (WHP) varieties, and all DiatoSorb-W solid support undergoes rigorous quality testing to ensure high purity and dependable performance. Virtually unlimited in supply—but only available from Restek—new DiatoSorb-W offers a reliable alternative for packed column users. Whether you need packed columns or loose packing materials, DiatoSorb-W products from Restek are always available and consistent in quality.
