Summary

This one day course introduces the fundamentally important concepts associated with troubleshooting HPLC analysis including hardware basics, separation issues, peaks shape and baseline issues and more.

All components of the HPLC system and associated problems are systematically studied. The use of chromatograms as diagnostic tools is explored in depth, including baselines, peak shape and retention time inconsistencies, spurious peaks, etc.

Suitable as a refresher for the more experienced analytical chemist or as an invaluable introduction to the technique for those with limited experience, this course provides an invaluable insight into HPLC principles and practice.
.
This course is designed for those relatively new to HPLC, and ideally will follow on from attendance on the Fundamental HPLC training course.

No previous knowledge of chromatography is necessary, but basic experience of chemistry is beneficial. Some experience of operating HPLC equipment and analysing HPLC data is required in order to fully participate in this course.

Outcomes

What you will learn:
- how to optimise instrument and method parameters to obtain high quality spectral data
- ionisation and fragmentation mechanisms in GC-MS
- logical evolution of an interpretation toolkit with a multitude of practice spectra with worked solution on which to practise new skills
- the fundamental spectral interpretation toolkit, and how to use it when confronted with the mass spectrum of an unknown
