USP Listing (Quick Guide)

USP classifications vary by method and column chemistry. The guide below lists commonly referenced USP codes used with Benson polymeric columns.

USP CodeTypical Benson SeriesNotes
L17Benson Polymeric ColumnsUSP L17 refers to polymeric stationary phases based on styrene–divinylbenzene type materials. Benson BP series columns fall under this classification and are widely used for aqueous separations where high chemical stability and long service life are required.
L19Benson BP-800 Ca SeriesUSP L19 is commonly associated with polymeric ligand-exchange columns used for carbohydrate analysis. Benson BP-800 Ca columns are designed for sugars and sugar alcohols, providing strong resolution and robustness under elevated-temperature aqueous conditions.
L34Benson BP H-form ColumnsUSP L34 typically covers ion-exclusion polymeric packings for organic-acid analysis. Benson H-form columns are widely applied to organic acids, fermentation acids and related analytes in food, beverage and biotechnology samples.

USP classification alone does not establish an exact equivalent or guarantee identical chromatographic performance. Confirm method suitability under your validated conditions.

Frequently Asked Questions

Which USP codes are commonly referenced for Benson polymeric columns?

The commonly referenced codes on this guide are USP L17, L19 and L34, depending on the stationary-phase chemistry and intended separation.

Which Benson series is commonly associated with USP L19?

Benson BP-800 Ca is commonly associated with USP L19 for ligand-exchange carbohydrate analysis, including sugars and sugar alcohols.

Which Benson columns are commonly associated with USP L34?

Benson H-form polymeric columns are commonly associated with USP L34 for ion-exclusion analysis of organic acids and fermentation acids.

Does the same USP code guarantee identical performance?

No. Columns within the same USP category can differ in cross-linking, dimensions, particle properties and selectivity. Suitability must be demonstrated using the validated method.

What information is needed to select a USP-equivalent Benson column?

Provide the required USP code, analytes, column dimensions, mobile phase, flow rate, temperature, detector and system-suitability requirements.
