Glutathione Agarose CL-6B is based on highly cross-linked agarose 6% beads which have structural characteristics that result in superb physical strength, excellent flow properties, low backpressure, and an open pore structure. Glutathione Agarose CL-6B allows operation at very high flow rates, resulting in increased throughput and rapid column cleaning between chromatography runs.
