Restek Viva Wide Pore LC Phase – Optimized for Proteins, Peptides, and Large Biomolecules
Superior Wide Pore Technology for Large Molecule Separations
The Restek Viva Wide Pore LC phase is specifically designed for the efficient separation of proteins, peptides, PEGylated compounds, and other high-molecular-weight biomolecules. Unlike conventional reversed-phase HPLC columns with smaller pore sizes, Viva columns feature an optimized 300 Å wide pore silica with a tightly controlled pore size distribution, allowing large analytes to access more of the stationary phase surface area.
This unique design delivers enhanced retention, improved resolution, and exceptional chromatographic performance for biomolecule analysis, making Viva columns an ideal choice for biopharmaceutical research, proteomics, peptide characterization, and LC-MS applications.
Find more information in the Restek Viva LC Columns Brochure.

Why Choose Restek Viva Wide Pore LC Columns?
Optimized for Large Biomolecules
Traditional HPLC columns with pore sizes between 60 and 150 Å often restrict access for larger molecules, reducing retention and chromatographic efficiency. The Viva Wide Pore phase utilizes a 300 Å pore structure specifically engineered to maximize accessibility for proteins, peptides, and other large analytes.
Maximum Surface Area for Enhanced Retention
The Viva silica material provides one of the highest available surface areas within the critical 250–350 Å pore range. This enables greater analyte interaction with the stationary phase, resulting in improved retention and higher chromatographic resolution.
Narrow Pore Size Distribution
Many commercially available wide pore materials contain a significant proportion of smaller pores that are inaccessible to large molecules. Viva columns feature a tightly controlled pore size distribution around the 300 Å average, ensuring consistent and efficient separations.
Excellent Peak Shape
The highly base-deactivated silica surface minimizes unwanted secondary interactions and delivers sharp, symmetrical peaks for proteins, peptides, and other biomolecules.
Ideal for LC-MS and Biopharmaceutical Workflows
Viva columns are widely used for:
- Protein characterization
- Peptide mapping
- Proteomics research
- Biotherapeutic development
- PEGylation reaction monitoring
- Biomarker analysis
- Biopharmaceutical quality control
- LC-MS and LC-MS/MS applications
Key Advantages
- Exceptional retention of proteins and peptides
- Optimized 300 Å wide pore structure
- High accessible surface area for large molecules
- Superior chromatographic resolution
- Excellent peak symmetry
- Outstanding lot-to-lot reproducibility
- Robust silica-based stationary phase
- Compatible with HPLC and LC-MS systems
Designed for Modern Biopharmaceutical Analysis
As therapeutic proteins, peptides, and PEGylated biomolecules continue to grow in importance, chromatographic methods require stationary phases specifically designed for large molecule separations. The Restek Viva Wide Pore LC phase addresses this challenge by providing superior pore accessibility, high retention, and excellent reproducibility for complex biomolecular analyses.
The column technology is particularly effective for monitoring PEGylation reactions, peptide purification workflows, and protein characterization studies where conventional reversed-phase columns often fail to provide sufficient retention and resolution.
Applications
Protein Analysis
Reliable separation and characterization of intact proteins and protein fragments.
Peptide Mapping
High-resolution peptide separations for proteomics and pharmaceutical research.
PEGylation Monitoring
Efficient monitoring of PEGylated peptides and therapeutic proteins during development and manufacturing.
Biopharmaceutical Quality Control
Robust and reproducible analysis of biologics, biosimilars, and protein-based therapeutics.
LC-MS Workflows
Enhanced sensitivity and chromatographic performance for biomolecule identification and quantification.
The Ideal Choice for Biomolecule Separations
The Restek Viva Wide Pore LC phase combines advanced silica technology, optimized pore architecture, and proven chromatographic performance to deliver reliable separations of large biomolecules. For laboratories focused on proteins, peptides, biologics, and biotherapeutics, Viva columns provide the retention, resolution, and reproducibility required for modern analytical workflows.
