DAICEL coated polysaccharide chiral stationary phases are made with a spherical high quality silica support onto which the polymeric chiral selector (amylose or cellulose derivatives) is physically coated. Due to the coated nature of these chiral supports, solvents should be carefully selected.

Analytical and Semi-preparative columns are available with 5 and 10 micron particle sizes. The 5 micron columns (-H series) offer higher resolution for use in more demanding applications than the traditional 10 micron columns.
