Key Definitions
Peptide Mapping
A reversed-phase LC workflow in which proteins are enzymatically digested (commonly with trypsin) and the resulting peptides are separated to confirm sequence coverage, detect post-translational modifications (PTMs), and assess product consistency.
Superficially Porous Particles (SPP)
Also known as core–shell particles, SPP technology uses a solid core with a thin porous shell. This reduces diffusion distance, improves peak capacity, and enables high-resolution separations at moderate backpressure—ideal for complex peptide digests.
C18 Reversed-Phase Selectivity
A hydrophobic stationary phase that separates peptides based on hydrophobicity. C18 is the preferred chemistry for peptide mapping because it provides strong retention, high peak capacity, and compatibility with LC/MS workflows.
120 Å Pore Size
A pore diameter optimized for peptide separations. It provides efficient mass transfer for peptides generated from protein digests, balancing retention strength and chromatographic efficiency.
Post-Translational Modifications (PTMs)
Chemical modifications occurring after protein synthesis, such as oxidation, deamidation, glycosylation, or phosphorylation. Peptide mapping methods are designed to detect and quantify these modifications.
Sequence Coverage
The percentage of a protein’s amino acid sequence confirmed by detected peptides. High sequence coverage improves confidence in identity confirmation and structural integrity assessments.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the AdvanceBio Peptide Mapping column used for?
AdvanceBio Peptide Mapping columns are designed for reversed-phase separation of enzymatically digested proteins. They are commonly used for sequence confirmation, post-translational modification (PTM) analysis, and structural characterization of biotherapeutics.
Why is C18 the preferred phase for peptide mapping?
C18 reversed-phase chemistry provides strong hydrophobic retention, high peak capacity, and excellent gradient compatibility for peptide separations. It enables reliable resolution of complex tryptic digests and supports LC/MS workflows.
How does Poroshell solid-core technology improve peptide separations?
The superficially porous (SPP) particle design reduces diffusion distance, producing sharper peaks and higher resolution compared to traditional fully porous particles. This is especially important when resolving complex peptide mixtures with many closely eluting species.
Are these columns compatible with LC/MS detection?
Yes. AdvanceBio Peptide Mapping columns are fully compatible with LC/MS workflows, making them ideal for peptide identification, PTM analysis, and high-resolution mass-based characterization.
What applications benefit most from AdvanceBio Peptide Mapping columns?
These columns are widely used for biopharmaceutical characterization, biosimilar comparison, stability studies, and regulatory submissions where high sequence coverage, reproducibility, and reliable PTM detection are required.
