Practical Tips for Operating UHPLC Instruments and Columns
This article describes the design of modern UHPLC instruments and offers simple procedures to identify the causes of poor column and method performance. Modern textbooks do not yet adequately address the complex topic of UHPLC, therefore the reader is encouraged to collect all references to learn important, additional details. More...
 
Sensitive, Ultrafast GC/MS/MS
The only GC/MS/MS capable of running all triple quad operational modes, without sacrificing sensitivity or accuracy, Shimadzu’s GCMS-TQ8030 elevates this method to a new level of performance. Fast enough for MRM/Scan and GC x GCMS, it features a true scan speed of 20,000 u/second and 600 MRM transitions/second. In addition, high-sensitivity ion optics eliminate neutral noise and maximize signal intensity for ultimate S/N ratio. Learn more
 
Back to the Basics: Considering Carryover, Column Back Pressure, and Wavelength When Developing Chromatographic Methods
High performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) is a sophisticated technique. Chromatographers must not forget the basics of method development to reap the full benefits in practice. Obvious parameters to optimize include the choice of chromatographic column, mobile phase, injection volume, flow rate, and detector settings. However, it is also beneficial to know how to determine carryover, the properties of the needle wash solvent used, and the importance of monitoring instrument back pressure. This article discusses issues related to carryover, instrument back pressure, and the choice of wavelength. More...
