Analyzing drugs in urine screens
We love these columns! We updated our method in 2018 and switched from the Raptors to the Force columns and they are wonderful with what we use them for. Their life span has doubled if not tripled and they're a little cheaper than the Raptors. We still use the Raptors for our Oral Fluid method and they run great, but the Force is awesome! We get great results too.

Reaction monitoring and GLP analyses
Good unique column but bleeds a little. Takes a while to equilibrate. Wish it was also available in flash cartridges.
