I'd like to know what's the difference between a Lichrospher Select B column and an Hypersil BDS one. I know that the pore size is different, but if there´s another difference I´d appreciate if someone tells me. Thanks.

Both belong to an older kind of columns than Luna (Phenomenex) or Purospher (Merck) or Symmetry (Waters) and others. These last columns work pretty good with basic compounds without using any amine as silanol suppressing agent. I could send you chromatograms of basic compunds like pseudoephedrine, diltiazem, etc, if you liked to see them. I´ve used both RP select B and Hypersil BDS but the new ones are much better.
Regards
