Fifty (50) Perfinity Workstation trypsin columns used in apolipoprotein digestion to support existing Perfinity on-line digestion and LC-MS/MS systems.  Columns must be compatible with our existing fully automated on-line system and be stable up-to 50 C-degree temperature and withstand high pressure .
