Type Q, Type S and Type M with porous packing materials have higher binding
capacity of proteins than the respective non-porous type, which means that
peak shape does not spread even with injection of a large volume of sample.
Therefore they are highly suitable for purification of large sample.

Type Q-N, Type S-N, Type M-N with non-porous packing materials reduce spreading of samples in packing materials, result in high resolution separation for precise analysis such as quality control of antibody drugs. The longer column length also contributes to the sharper peaks.

The resolution with non-porous packing materials is not much affected by high flow rate and thus the materials are suitable for fast analysis. The shorter column length contributes to the fast analysis.
