This strong cation-exchange medium is designed for separation of low-molecular-weight proteins, peptides, nucleotides, and selected macromolecules. It uses a highly crosslinked dextran G50 matrix. Sulfopropyl groups provide strong cation-exchange functionality. The dry particles range from 40 to 120 µm and swell to form the working chromatographic bed. A ribonuclease adsorption capacity of 100 mg/mL supports preparative separation. The medium provides flow above 100 cm/h with relatively low backpressure. It is stable in common aqueous buffers and concentrated urea or guanidine hydrochloride. The matrix tolerates the stated steam treatment in sodium chloride solution.
