Markets Served
Supelco products affect almost every facet of life everywhere in the world. Environmental laboratories and government agencies, food and beverage manufacturers, pharmaceutical and biotechnology laboratories, petroleum and chemical companies, and many other institutions depend on Supelco products to monitor and help ensure the quality of our air, water, food, and the purity and consistency of drug compounds.
Major Products/Services
Supelco's HPLC product offerings include the Ascentis® and Ascentis Express Fused-Core® HPLC columns plus an extensive line of Astec Chiral columns.
The unique polymer chemistries of Supelco's SLB™ and Equity® capillary GC columns provide accurate identification and reliable quantification. Supelco's SLB columns offer a low bleed, inert, and durable column for trace analyses.
Supelco offers a wide range of SPE cartridges and accessories in standard and specialty phases. The SupelMIP® (molecularly imprinted polymer) line offers tailor-made selectivity for extraction of trace analytes.
Our SPME technology (short, phase-coated fused-silica fiber) is used to remove analytes from water-based samples or headspace and deliver them to a capillary GC or an HPLC column.
Supelco also offers a vast variety of analytical standards and its carbon research program is unique to the separations technologies industry.
Facilities
Supelco's corporate headquarters and main production facility are in Bellefonte, Pennsylvania. An extensive network of Sigma-Aldrich subsidiaries and sales professionals promotes and supports Supelco products worldwide.

Inside the Laboratory: The Gionfriddo Group at the University at Buffalo
March 28th 2024In this edition of “Inside the Laboratory,” Emanuela Gionfriddo, PhD, an associate professor of chemistry at the University at Buffalo, discusses her group’s current research endeavors, including using solid-phase microextraction (SPME) coupled to liquid chromatography (LC) and gas chromatography (GC) to further understand the chemical relationship between environmental exposure and disease and elucidate micropollutants fate in the environment and biological systems.
Transferring Methods to Compact and Portable HPLC
February 14th 2024The current trend in laboratory equipment design is the miniaturization of laboratory instruments. Smaller-scale HPLC instruments offer benefits that cannot be matched by analytical-scale equipment, especially in the areas of portability, reduced fluid volumes, and reduced operating costs. Yet, the miniaturization of laboratory equipment has brought with it a unique set of challenges, including transferring methods to compact LC. Capillary LC expands the use of LC to applications not currently done using conventional LC in a wide array of application areas, including pharmaceutical, food and beverage, petrochemical, environmental, and oil and gas. Greg Ward, Axcend’s CEO wrote, “Customers want an HPLC system with a small footprint, low flow rates and green chemistry.” Join his podcast where he shares method transfer in these application areas.
