Product description

High-capacity strong acid cation exchange resin (Dowex 50WX8) with 100-200 mesh beads for analytical separations.

The Acros Organics Dowex 50WX8 is a strong acid cation exchange resin formulated with sulfonic acid functional groups, optimized for analytical separations, deionization, and sample preparation in chemical and biotechnological research. It features a fine particle size of 100-200 mesh with a maximum of 15% cumulative on 60 mesh, providing high resolution and efficient ion exchange performance essential in molecular diagnostics and bioprocessing workflows.

Key technical specifications include:

  • Volume capacity: Minimum 1.7 meq/mL in hydrogen (H) form, supporting high-capacity ion exchange applications.
  • Water retention: Between 50% and 58%, ensuring stable hydration and consistent ion-exchange kinetics.
  • Physical form: Moist beads or spheres, beige to brown in color, insoluble in water for durability during ion exchange.
  • CAS Number: 11119-67-8; known as AmberChrom 50WX8 in IUPAC nomenclature.
  • Packaging: Supplied in a 2.5 kg plastic bottle, convenient for laboratory and biomanufacturing use.

This resin is critical in biotechnological applications including gene editing sample prep, synthetic biology research, and biopharmaceutical production pipelines where precise and reliable ion exchange is required. The strong acid cation exchange capability makes it widely adopted for biomedical engineering and fluorescence analysis workflows demanding high purity and selectivity.

Its particle size distribution and high capacity make it suitable for integration into benchtop ion exchange systems used in cell imaging sample prep and clinical diagnostic assays. The resin's chemical and physical stability ensure reproducible results across numerous cycles, essential for continuous bioprocessing and downstream purification steps.

This ion exchange medium adheres to international classification standards with the harmonized code 391400, facilitating compliance and efficient import/export handling for research and industrial laboratories specializing in biotechnology and molecular biology domains.

Why Questpair exists

Lab equipment markets are fragmented. Buyers spend weeks calling distributors, comparing quotes, and verifying supplier reliability. Sellers struggle to reach global research labs.

We built Questpair to fix this. Every supplier on the platform is verified before listing. Every quote you receive comes from a real, vetted seller. AI prepares your case in minutes, then a real specialist takes over.

We're an independent team based in The Netherlands, working with research labs and procurement teams across Europe and worldwide.

Frequently asked questions

How long does laboratory equipment typically last?

With a service contract, ten to fifteen years is normal for most benchtop instruments. Detectors and pumps are the parts that wear first.

Can I get service for older equipment?

Often, yes. Verified suppliers frequently work with service partners converting the instrument. If applicable, we can list servicing options alongside the offer.

Where can I buy parts?

Ask a scientist through the request button. Parts are often available even when the instrument itself is discontinued.

What is the typical lead time for refurbished equipment?

Two to six weeks, depending on refurbishment scope and whether calibration is included.

Does laboratory equipment ship internationally?

We ship to 38 countries. Crating and customs handling are quoted with the instrument.
