Symmetry is the only HPLC column where every step of the column manufacturing process is controlled and documented. We synthesize the silica particles, size, surface modify, precision machine and chemically clean the steel column tube and endfittings, pack, test and package. All this is done in Waters' cGMP, ISO 9000, Medical Device registered manufacturing facilities. The individual serial number on each Symmetry column allows us to trace its origins back to incoming QC tests performed on its raw materials. And Symmetry columns are shipped with a Certificate of Analysis and batch QC test data.
Method validation of a new drug assay is tough and time consuming. Faster validation of new products and processes has to be the name of the game in today's regulated and cost-controlled environment. No HPLC column has been designed with this in mind until now. Symmetry, column after column, year after year no matter who uses your method or where it is used around the world. It's the new standard for all your HPLC assays.
